The Tiffen 4 x 4" Full Spectrum IRND 1.8 Filter is a combination of an infrared control filter and a 1.8 neutral density filter. An IRND is ideal for HD cameras, which have greater low-light sensitivity and, consequently, increased sensitivity to IR contamination. When using a standard neutral density filter to counter the increased light sensitivity offered by the HD sensor, the effects of infrared pollution become more apparent. This filter combines an ND filter with a comparable IR control filter to eliminate infrared light leakage reaching the sensor whilst maintaining the additional exposure benefits of a neutral density filter.

This filter is constructed from Water White glass and is manufactured using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 optical glass plates and grinding it flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch. This filter measures 4 x 4" / 101.6 x 101.6 mm.


- The infrared control filter helps prevent infrared pollution that affects the colour fidelity of the image; this allows a wider colour gamut and more accurate colours, particularly visible in the darker regions of the image.
- The 1.8 neutral density filter provides a 6-stop exposure reduction.
- Water White optical glass for excellent clarity.
