Shooting long exposures in broad daylight can be very challenging. The Haida Red Diamond 17 Stop ND 5. 0 Filter was created with this in mind. Most conventional ND's simply don't provide enough light reduction.
When photographing long exposure landscapes, a common challenge that many photographers encounter is the drastic difference between amount of light in the sky and below the horizon. This is where filters like the Haida Red-Diamond 3 Stop Soft-Edge Graduated ND Filter come in handy.
Haida recently sent over one of their 10 Stop Red-Diamond ND 100x100mm Filters (3. 0/1000x Density) for us to review alongside their M10 Filter Holder System. Neutral Density filters are particularly useful for photographers specializing in architectural, landscape, and travel photography, especially when shooting long exposures during daylight hours.
During last year's PhotoPlus Expo, we were introduced to Chinese filter manufacturer Haida and their brand new M10 Filter Holder System. For many photographers, particularly those that specialize in landscape, architecture, and travel photography, neutral density filters play an integral role in their imaging workflow.
