Haida ND1.2 M15 Red-Diamond Reverse Grad Filter

HD4398

This Red Diamond Hard-Edge Reverse-Graduated Neutral Density Filter from Haida is compatible with the Haida 150 Filter Holder.

This filter offers a range of benefits for capturing stunning landscapes. Achieve balanced exposures by preventing overexposure in the sky while maintaining the right exposure for the foreground. Retain essential sky details, such as cloud formations and colors, for vibrant and impactful images.

The Red-Diamond coating ensures exceptional image quality, reducing reflections, flare, and ghosting. With its 4-stop filter strength, you have greater control over exposure, allowing for artistic effects and adding depth to your compositions. Compatible with Haida's M15 filter holder system, this filter is a valuable tool for capturing breathtaking landscape photographs.

It can be applied to darken bright skies, specifically during a sunrise or sunset, while allowing for a normal, unaffected exposure in the other regions of the image.

This filter achieves its effect with a band of density across its center region that provides a reduction in light from entering a lens. This band extends approximately 15mm in both vertical directions. With a soft-edged line of transition, it tapers to a density that provides a reduction in light at the edge above it. Directly below the band of density, it tapers to clear, with a hard-edged line of transition before the clear area.

  • Compatible with Haida 150 Filter Holder
  • Effectively darkens bright skies, specifically during a sunrise or sunset, while allowing for a normal, unaffected exposure in the other regions of the image
  • Band of density that tapers to a varied density at the edge above it while directly above a clear area creates a neutral density pattern that matches the positioning of the sun when it is at, or immediately above, the horizon
  • Band of density extends in both vertical directions
  • Density pattern corresponds to the brightness pattern of the sun when it appears at or is closer to the horizon as opposed to a higher angle, which creates an increase in brightness that is more prominent on both sides of the sun than above it
  • Hard-edged line of transition between the band of density and the clear area below it is useful for hard transitions between the sky and land
  • Gradation with soft-edged line of transition is applicable to multiple regions of brightness within the sky
  • Filter does not affect the overall coloration of the image
  • Shock-resistant optical glass construction
  • 10 layers of anti-reflective nano coatings on each glass surface prevent internal ghosting and reflections, while further enhancing clarity and color fidelity
  • 10 additional scratch-resistant hydrophobic coatings on each glass surface further protect the filter substrate and result in an improved beading effect when in contact with water or oil for greater cleaning efficiency
  • Rounded edges for easier placement within a compatible filter holder slot
  • When combined with a compatible filter holder, included gasket helps to prevent light from coming in between the filter and the lens behind it, which can have an unwanted effect on exposure
  • Metallic filter case for storage and transport


The placement of a band of density that tapers to a density above it with a clear area directly below, allows the Haida Red Diamond Hard-Edge Reverse-Graduated Neutral Density Filter to match the positioning of the sun when it is at, or immediately above, the horizon. In such instances, the sun can appear closer to the center of an image as opposed to the upper edge, and an increase in brightness is created that is more prominent on both sides of the sun than above it.

This pattern of brightness corresponds to the density pattern on the Haida Red Diamond Hard-Edge Reverse-Graduated Neutral Density Filter. The hard-edged line of transition in this reverse, graduated neutral density filter is useful for hard transitions between the sky and land, while the gradation with a soft-edged line of transition is applicable to multiple regions of brightness within the sky.

Haida Red Diamond filters are constructed from shock-resistant optical glass. To prevent internal ghosting and reflections, while further enhancing clarity and color fidelity, each glass surface includes 10 layers of anti-reflective nano coatings. An additional 10 scratch-resistant hydrophobic coatings further protect the filter's substrate and result in an improved beading effect when its surfaces come in contact with water or oil, allowing for more efficient cleaning. Additionally, Haida Red Diamond filters feature rounded edges for easier placement within a compatible filter holder slot.

A metallic case for storage and transport is included, as well as a light-blocking gasket. This gasket forms a seal that is intended to prevent stray light, which could have unwanted effects on exposure, from coming in between the filter and the lens behind it.
