A comprehensive filter for neutral density and polarization, this 6 to 9-stop, 82mm PolarPro Peter McKinnon Chroma VND/PL Black Mist Filter 82mmfrom PolarPro Peter McKinnon Chroma VND/PL Black Mist Filter 82mmincorporates black particles inside the newly-developed Chroma Glass structure to provide 1/4 strength of bloomed highlights, color depth, and rich, dark shadows. The Chroma Glass allows the filter to have two distinct, independently controlled elements respectively for neutral density and polarization in a bi-rotational design. The new glass also increases the filter's color accuracy, only incurring the color variance that results from polarization.

The neutral density filter allows users to reduce exposure values to achieve various effects, while polarizers reduce glare and reflections to give an image a sharp, clean look. In addition to the space-saving combination of these functions, PolarPro has also improved the tactile experience of using the filter, incorporating ball bearings at each stop to lock the VND setting into place. The filter also features 16 layers of anti-scratch, anti-reflective, and anti-fingerprint coatings.
