Lee 0.9 ND and 0.6 Soft GND?

[ddong]

I don't want to buy a set of ND or GND, but need 1 hard and 1 soft. I am not sure 0.9 ND & 0.6 Soft GND or 0.9 GND and 0.6 ND?

I actually like 6 stops ND, but Lee's website doesn't seem to have that. Any other choices?

Any suggestions?

One thing - "Hard" and "Soft" both apply to graduated ND filters. An ND filter is solid ND. A Hard grad has a very sharp transition between ND and clear while a soft grad has a smoother blending.

So if you want a hard and a soft, you want 0.9 hard GND and 0.6 soft GND, or vice versa. a full 6 stops (1.8 GND) would be very extreme; I don't think you'd want that in a grad; more likely in a solid ND for slowing water or similar uses. If you're getting 2 only, I'd suggest a soft 2-stop (0.6) and a hard 3-stop (0.9).

Thanks Jon. This exactly what I asked for.
