The 3-stop, 82mm Haida PROII ND Filter 82mm 3-Stop Multicoatedfrom Haida PROII ND Filter 82mm 3-Stop Multicoateddarkens your image and allows you to better manipulate shutter speed and exposure. Its 0.9 density creates a darkening of the entire image, allowing you to photograph with a wider aperture or slower shutter speed than normally required. By slowing your exposure time, you can create images with motion blur or by opening up your aperture to create shallow depth of field. Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image and are ideal for pairing with other filters. This neutral density filter is constructed from glass and features an aluminum-alloy filter ring for durability while remaining lightweight. The front of the ring is knurled for improved grip.
