The Formatt Hitech Firecrest Ultra 100x100mm Neutral Density 3.9 is a square neutral density filter that cuts the light reaching the camera by 13 stops, letting you use much longer exposures without changing the scene’s lighting. It suits landscape photographers and anyone working with moving water, clouds or other motion who wants blur rather than a frozen instant. The 100x100mm format is for photographers using a square-filter setup. Its defining use is substantial exposure reduction: choose it when a modest shutter-speed adjustment won’t get you to the long exposure you have in mind. With 13 stops of light reduction, exposure times become lengthy, so it’s best used deliberately, with a clear idea of the movement you want to record.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"specialist-note\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecialist Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt a metered 1\/125 sec, applying 13 stops takes you to roughly 65 seconds; that’s a useful starting point for turning moving water into a softer, continuous-looking surface. I’d also use it when I want cloud movement to register during a landscape exposure, rather than freeze each detail. The 100x100mm square size makes this a fit for a square-filter routine, so pair it with a holder built for that format. One trade-off is the length of the exposure: movement can blur more than intended, and framing is easier to settle before you start the long shot. It suits patient landscape work more than quick changes between frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Formatt Hitech\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilter format: 100x100mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilter type: Neutral density\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptical density: 3.9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight reduction: 13 stops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Formatt Hitech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57512673345876,"sku":"FH-FCU100ND3.9","price":123.76,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.htf-store.com\/pl\/products\/formatt-hitech-firecrest-ultra-100x100mm-neutral-density-3-9-13-stops","provider":"Hard to Find Camera Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
