Schneider 4 x 5.6" Neutral Density 0.6 Attenuator Vertical Filter


Brand New Filter in the original box with pouch.



Stock Code: 68-056806. List is $450.00


This is a special type of Neutral Density Filter. Neutral Density Attenuators diminish distracting backgrounds by enabling the use of wider lens apertures, thereby reducing depth of field. Conversely, these ND Attenuators can be used to properly expose varying light levels within a given frame. They allow the amount light reaching the film to be controlled without relying solely on camera aperture. Neutral Density Attenuators are made using the finest crystal-clear water-white optical glass and are precision engineered with unparalleled smoothness, uniformity and consistency. They can be used alone or in combination with other filters with no degradation of image quality.


The Schneider 4 x 5.65" Neutral Density 0.6 Attenuator Water White Filter is designed to control overall exposure and/or various lighting conditions, without affecting color or contrast. In addition to permitting the use of high speed film in bright lighting conditions, they offer significant versatility.

Conversely, these ND Attenuators can be used to properly expose varying light levels within a given frame. They allow the amount of light reaching the film to be controlled without relying solely on the camera aperture. Speaking generally, the 2-stop value (ND 0.6) effectively compensates average situations.


ND Attenuators can be used alone or in combination with other Schneider filters with no degradation of image quality.

Note! Neutral Density Attenuator filters are available in 1,2,3 and 4 stops

Neutral Density Filters Have Four Main Uses

To enable slow shutter speeds to be used, especially with high speed films, to record movement in subjects such as waterfalls, clouds, or cars
To decrease depth of field by allowing wider apertures to be used, which helps separate subjects from their background
To decrease the effective ISO of high speed film (above ISO 400) and allow it to be used outdoors in bright situations
To allow cine and video cameras (which have fixed shutter speeds) to film subjects such as snow, sand or other bright scenes which could cause overexposure

Schneider Optics has engineered a major improvement in motion picture and broadcast television image quality with the Schneider filter line. Diamond cut from crystal-clear, water-white optical glass, Schneider filters are ground and polished to a precise flatness and planeparallelism (the exact parallel relationship between the front and back filter surfaces that is so important to optical performance). Then, to ensure perfection, this is verified by a laser interferometer. Schneider filters are also checked with a densitometer for consistent density, and tested for proper light transmission with a spectrophotometer. Because all Schneider filters are designed and manufactured with the highest possible degree of consistency, you can swap like filters mid-shoot with no discernible variation in color or effect. The unprecedented purity, color saturation and repeatability of Schneider filters virtually eliminate the need for lab color timing corrections caused by other filters. This puts more creative control where it belongs, in your hands.





All Schneider filters are constructed from solid optical glass (i.e. - Schott glass) with the filter material melted in the glass itself and hence are built for life. The edges of the filters are rounded off and smoother to the touch. They are simply better designed filters. Says a leading DoP of Hollywood "I have many of them and am completely satisfied. Can't say that about other brands I have tried. Buy right, cry once".
