Landscape photographers have long understood the benefits of ultra-wide angle lenses, but their design constraints made the use of filters virtually impossible. Now, the SW150 Mark II filter system opens up opportunities for the creative use of filters, without the need to be concerned about vignetting.
The SW150 Mark II filter holder comes assembled with two filter slots and includes the SW150 Lightshield, enabling you to use neutral density graduated filters in combination with other filters. The included lightshield helps to prevent unwanted back reflections and creates a light tight seal enabling the use of Big Stopper.
The LEE Big Stopper is solid ND filter that allows you to increase the exposure in your images, rendering clouds soft, water smooth and milky, car headlights as streaks of color, or people as abstract, blurred figures. The Big Stopper is a 10-stop ND 3.0 filter that allows for longer exposures and is ideal for the midday setting when the sun is brightest.
