That’s useful when you want a longer shutter speed or a wider aperture without changing the scene. It suits landscape photographers and others working with a 4x4 square-filter setup who need more control over exposure in bright conditions. For example, lengthening the exposure can give moving water a softer look, while reducing the light can help you use a wider aperture for a portrait outdoors. Four stops is a practical amount of light reduction: enough to make a clear difference to your exposure choices, without pushing every shot into very long exposure times. If you want to manage daylight with a square ND filter, this Firecrest gives you a defined amount of reduction to work with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"specialist-note\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecialist Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour stops lets you use a shutter speed sixteen times longer than your unfiltered exposure. If your meter reading is 1\/125 sec, for example, try about 1\/8 sec with the filter, keeping aperture and ISO unchanged; it’s a handy starting point for showing movement in a stream. The 100 x 100 mm square format suits photographers already working with square filters, and gives you a clear size to plan around when composing. I’d consider it for daylight landscapes or scenes where a slower shutter helps show motion. One honest limit: four stops won’t create an extremely long exposure in every lighting condition, so think of this as moderate exposure control rather than heavy darkening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilter size: 100 x 100 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: 4x4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eND rating: ND 1.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight reduction: 4 stops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Formatt Hitech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57492016038228,"sku":"FH-FC100ND1.2","price":112.13,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.htf-store.com\/de\/products\/formatt-hitech-firecrest-nd-100x100mm-4x4-nd-1-2-4stops","provider":"Hard to Find Camera Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
