The Formatt Hitech Firecrest Ultra 46mm Neutral Density 1.5 (5 Stops) reduces the light reaching the camera by five stops, giving you room to use a slower shutter speed or a wider aperture. It suits photographers who want more control over exposure in daylight, particularly when movement in a scene is part of the picture: water can blur, while a busy view can take on a calmer feel with a long exposure. You can also use the light reduction to work with a wider aperture when the available light would otherwise call for a smaller one. The effect depends on your chosen exposure and what’s moving in the frame; the filter gives you control over light, not motion itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"specialist-note\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecialist Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA five-stop reduction makes a slow-shutter effect possible in daylight without waiting for the light to fade. I’d suggest it to someone who wants to smooth a stream or waterfall: if your meter calls for 1\/30 sec, adding five stops of reduction brings that to about one second, which gives moving water time to blur. The 46mm size means it’s intended for a lens with a matching 46mm filter thread, so check that against the lens you plan to use. Its ND 1.5 strength is a fixed amount of light reduction; it’s a focused tool for this exposure range, rather than an adjustable variable-density filter.\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\u003eSeries: Firecrest Ultra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilter diameter: 46mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeutral density: 1.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight reduction: 5 stops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Formatt Hitech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57512665612628,"sku":"FH-FCU46ND1.5","price":93.37,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.htf-store.com\/pl\/products\/formatt-hitech-firecrest-ultra-46mm-neutral-density-1-5-5-stops","provider":"Hard to Find Camera Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
