LEE Filters 100mm System Super Stopper 15-Stop Neutral Density Filter

The LEE Filters Super Stopper is a professional-grade neutral density (ND) filter designed for the 100mm filter system. It reduces the amount of light entering the camera lens by a significant 15 stops (ND 3.0), enabling photographers to achieve extremely long exposure times even in the brightest midday sunlight. This capability transforms scenes by smoothing water into mist, blurring clouds into streaks, and eliminating moving people from landscapes, all while maintaining correct exposure and colour balance. The filter is constructed from high-quality, optically pure resin that is hand-polished to ensure exceptional clarity and minimal colour cast. It fits into the standard LEE 100mm Foundation or Seven5 filter holder systems, making it compatible with a wide range of lenses when used with the appropriate adapter ring. The extreme density allows for creative techniques that were previously impossible in harsh lighting conditions, giving photographers complete control over motion and depth of field. This filter is ideally suited for landscape, architectural, and fine art photographers who wish to explore creative long-exposure photography. It is an essential tool for anyone looking to capture the dynamic movement of seascapes, rivers, or bustling cityscapes in a serene, timeless manner. By mastering exposure times of several minutes, photographers can produce strikingly artistic images that stand out from conventional shots.
