VFFOTO magnetic graduated filters (GND – Graduated Neutral Density) are designed for photographers and filmmakers who want to achieve perfectly balanced exposure in high-contrast lighting situations directly in-camera, without relying on complex post-production. Their main purpose is to balance bright skies with darker foregrounds, preserving detail in both highlights and shadows.
VFFOTO graduated filters allow you to selectively darken only part of the image – typically the sky – while leaving the foreground unaffected. This helps maintain a natural dynamic range, prevent blown highlights and achieve a well-balanced exposure in a single frame.
Thanks to the magnetic mounting system, VFFOTO graduated filters offer maximum flexibility in the field and in the studio. Filters attach via a magnetic adapter, allowing fast, silent and precise changes without screwing – ideal for landscape, architecture and video work.
Simply place the filter onto the magnetic adapter and it will instantly lock into place. The magnetic system allows quick filter changes and precise positioning, which is essential when aligning the transition area with the horizon.
VFFOTO graduated filters effectively reduce sky brightness while preserving detail in clouds, allowing the foreground to remain correctly exposed. The result is a more natural-looking image with balanced exposure – without the need for HDR or heavy post-processing.
The precisely engineered transition between the dark and clear areas ensures a smooth, natural blend. This makes the filters ideal for landscapes, seascapes, mountains, architecture and any scene with strong brightness differences between sky and foreground.
VFFOTO filters are made from premium optical glass, ensuring high sharpness, minimal distortion and excellent detail retention. Multi-layer anti-reflective coatings reduce internal reflections and contrast loss.
VFFOTO graduated filters maintain neutral colour rendering without unwanted colour shifts. This makes them suitable for professional photography and video production where colour accuracy is critical.
Hydrophobic and oleophobic coatings repel water, dust and grease, making cleaning easy in the field. Increased scratch resistance ensures long-term durability even in demanding shooting conditions.
VFFOTO magnetic graduated filters can be combined with other VFFOTO magnetic filters such as ND, CPL or Black Mist filters. This allows maximum creative flexibility and advanced filter combinations directly in-camera.
