Tiffen Ultra Contrast 3 58mm Filter

The Tiffen Ultra Contrast 3 58mm Filter can be used to intentionally reduce contrast when taking photographs or recording video. By distributing ambient lighting towards the darker areas of a scene, this filter is useful for evenly balancing the tonal range between highlights and shadows. Details are increased in shadow areas whilst glare and halation around highlights are intentionally limited.
This filter has a grade of 3. Grades of 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2, 4 and 5 are also available, with the effect of this type of filter becoming approximately twice as strong with each increase in grade number.
This filter is manufactured using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass and grinding it flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch.
