Formatt-Hitech-6 Neutral Density ND-1-2, Soft Edge Reverse Filter
The “Firecrest Ultra ND” series is a cinema-grade square ND filter series renowned for its durability and neutrality.\
Choose from four variations: Full IRND, Soft Gradation IRND, Hard Gradation IRND, and Reverse Gradation IRND. \
Highly regarded in Europe and America for its superior neutral characteristics as an IRND filter, this series has been adopted for numerous film and television productions.\
\
The “Firecrest Ultra Reverse Gradation IRND 100mm×150mm” is designed for shooting sunrises and sunsets where the center of the composition is brightest. The boundary in the center darkens sharply, similar to a hard gradient, but gradually lightens toward the top of the filter.\
It is ideal for shooting sunrises and sunsets when the sun is above the horizon. \
Available in densities: 0.3 (equivalent to ND2), 0.6 (2 stops of light reduction/equivalent to ND4), 0.9 (3 stops of light reduction/equivalent to ND8), 1.2 (4 stops of light reduction/equivalent to ND16).\
Filter dimensions: 100mm width × 150mm height, 2mm thickness.

■Highly Durable 3-Layer Construction\
The Fircrest Ultra IRND filter employs a 3-layer construction, bonding IRND coating between two optical glass layers.\
This fully protects the coating from external factors, enhancing scratch resistance and extending product lifespan.\


■Rare Earth Metal Coating for Enhanced Neutrality\
The IRND filter coating utilizes a “Rare Earth Metal Coating” that absorbs light across all wavelength ranges (ultraviolet, visible light, near-infrared, infrared) almost uniformly, achieving exceptionally high neutrality.\
Compared to other manufacturers' glass filters, it significantly reduces color cast caused by IR (infrared) light.\


■High Flatness via Precision Glass Polishing Technology\
The “lap and polish process” (glass polishing) delivers the high transparency and sharpness expected of a high-end filter.\


■High-Quality SCHOTT B 270® Glass Used\
The optical glass employs SCHOTT B 270® glass, known for its high transmittance and low refractive index. SCHOTT B 270® glass offers stable transmission characteristics from ultraviolet (UVA) to near-infrared wavelengths and exhibits exceptional homogeneity with a very low refractive index.\
It provides resistance to reflections and flare, along with water repellency, maximizing the filter's performance.\


■Edge Blackening Treatment\
Blackening the filter edges reduces internal reflections, preventing flare and ghosting.\
Formatt Hitech is a UK/Welsh optical filter brand with proven use in films like Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and Dune Part 2. \
It features the “Firecrest Ultra IRND” filter, renowned for its neutrality and scratch resistance, and a highly operable magnetic holder system designed for use in harsh environments like cold climates.\
The “Firecrest Ultra IRND” in particular is recognized in Europe and America as a filter resistant to color cast.
