C-GND (Centered Graduated Neutral Density) center gray gradient filter
C-GND gray gradient filters have a gradient that varies in strength and density across the surface of the glass filter. The filters are clear and in the middle there is a strip of GND gray gradient filter. When photographing with long shutter speeds, it is important to be able to control the light. Depending on what you want to block the light from, you can place the gray gradient filter in the correct position. At sunrise/sunset a fairly narrow beam of light around the sun is very bright, so a C-GND filter is placed in front of the lens and moved to a position where the brighter part of the scene is covered by the C-GND filter and the margin between light and dark blurred using the transition zones of the C-GND filter. Using a C-GND filter avoids the heavy darkening sky normally associated with using stronger GND filters in sunrise/sunset scenes, the transition zones are normally soft.
