LEE Filters is a British filter manufacturer that is, perhaps, best known for its 'Big Stopper' 10-stop neutral density filter, as well as the six-stop 'Little Stopper' and 15-stop 'Super Stopper'. In this test, however, I’m taking a closer look at the company’s graduated neutral density filter range that comes in 85x115mm sizes, and is available in various strengths with either Soft, Medium, or Hard transitions.
The LEE85 system is physically smaller than the company's popular LEE100 system, as it’s designed for more compact camera bodies with smaller APS-C and MFT digital sensors. Lenses specifically made for these cameras tend to be downsized too, with smaller filter threads, and therefore the LEE85 system only works with filter threads up to 72mm, whereas the LEE100 can go all the way up to 95mm. You can also check out my review of the LEE100 GND filters.
