Promaster 4149 55mm ND8X ソフトグラデーションフィルター

The exposure balance on this soft grad filter is really precise, so my sunrise shots have way less blown-out sky. It threads onto my lens smoothly without any binding, which is a nice change.

I’ve been using this grad filter on a few overcast mornings and the transition from dark to clear is impressively smooth, letting me keep the sky detail without blowing out the foreground. It definitely saves me time tweaking exposures in post.

First tried it at sunrise and the transition from bright sky to darker foreground came out super smooth without any weird color cast. The soft gradient is subtle enough to look natural, saves me so much time in Lightroom.
