Lee Filters SW150 ND 0.6 하드 그라드 필터

Finally got this filter for balancing bright skies with darker foregrounds, and the hard gradient transition is much sharper than my old soft-edge one. The 2-stop reduction works perfectly for sunrise shots without washing out the lower half of the frame.

The hard gradient transition is perfectly placed, so my foreground stays detailed while the sky gets a clean, even darkening. I’ve been using it at sunrise and it handles glare surprisingly well.

Finally, no more blown-out skies when I shoot seascapes. The hard gradient line is crisp and the 2-stop reduction feels perfectly matched to my exposure workflow. It slots into the holder with zero fuss and the glass is noticeably cleaner than my old graduated filters.
