Neutral Density ND4 Filter for Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ38

Get impressive exposures for landscapes and portraits

A neutral density filter helps you to reduce the path of light through your lens and the sensor of your camera. Why is it useful? When you want to use longer exposure times, for example. You will be able to choose a lower shutter speed in daylight or in very luminous situations. If you did not use a ND filter, generally from f/22, the picture would be overexposed due to the a long exposure time. Moreover, you can not use a high shutter speed if you want to create artistic effects such as blurry water or clouds in motion. So what is the solution? The Gloxy ND4 neutral density filter for 46mm diameter lenses.

It is also useful for getting a blurred background in portrait photography or in daylight sessions while using the artificial light of a hot-shoe flash. If you are looking for a unfocused background, you should open the shutter at its maximum while increasing shutter speed in order to correct the exposure. However, hot-shoe flashes generally have a maximum sync. speed so at some point, you will not have the possibility to increase more the shutter speed. As a result, the picture will be overexposed. What can you do? Use a ND filter.
