This 4 x 5.65" Tiffen ND Filter 4x5.65" 3.3-Stopis a solid neutral density filter providing a 3.3-stop exposure reduction. This 1.0 density creates a darkening of the entire image, allowing you to photograph with a wider aperture or slower shutter speed than normally required. By increasing your aperture or slowing your exposure time, you are able to control depth of field and convey movement more easily. Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image and are ideal for pairing with other filters.

This filter is made using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between two pieces of optical glass and grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch. This filter measures 4 x 5.65" / 101.6 x 143.5mm.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is this filter compatible with the Moment M-series lens - 67mm filter adapter?

A: No, the Tiffen 62mm Variable Neutral Density Filter is not the correct size for the Moment M-Series Lens 67mm Filter Mount. One would need to get the Tiffen 67mm Variable Neutral Density Filter, BH #TIVND67 (https://bhpho.to/3FUZ4GR).

Q: 2. If I have a sigma 18-35 f/1.8 will I still be able to attach a lens hood to the front with this ND filter on?

A: Noah... the Tiffen VND filter ring is larger than the diameter of your lens. This is done to prevent vignetting in images. Unfortunately, it will not allow a lens hood to attach.

Q: 3. Why in the world would you use this awful simulated image?

A: If you don't understand what the picture is showing, then you are not qualified to use this product. ND filters are used to reduce the amount of light entering the camera so that you can drag or slow down the shutter creating a soft water affect. This filter is also used in other special effect situations for video. I have worked on film productions for some of the largest production companies in the world and this is my go to filter.

Q: 4. Does anyone else get a grinding noise/feeling like a tiny piece of sand or metal in in between the gliding rings? Should I take it back and exchange it? Haven't had it for more than a day. Also seems like the oil in between the rings comes out rather easily. Functions fine, but if it's defective I want a normal one.

A: The VND filters should not grind and oil should not leak, this is the first time I have heard of these problems with a VND. Our apologies, but it sounds like your filter is defective. You can do a return through B&H or directly with Tiffen, your choice. If you choose to return through Tiffen please send the following information to techsupport@a href= http://tiffen.com; target= _blank tiffen.com;/a your name, shipping address and phone #, a copy of your B&H receipt, a description of the problem and please request a Return Authorization (RA) to have this item replaced under warranty.

Q: 5. What size lens cap fits the Tiffen 82 mm variable ND filter? Thank you!

A: The Tiffen 82mm Variable Neutral Density Filter does not have front filter threads, so standard lens caps are incompatible. The Kaiser 100mm Push-On Lens Cap, BH #KALC100, is a little large. Adding gaffer tape around the inside edge does allow the cap to fit.

Q: 6. Hello, I am new and wondering, does anyone know if this will fit this lens? https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1369132-REG/sigma_402965_16mm_f_1_4_dc_dn.html

A: Yes it will.

Q: 7. I have the Sony FE 70-200mm F4. What size do i need to fit this ND FIlter?

A: You can answer your question, by looking at the threaded, filter end of your Sony lens, where the correct size should be printed on the bezel. Good luck!

Q: 8. The spec says Front Filter Thread Size86mm , so can I use a normal 86mm lens cap on the outside of the filter? Thanks!

A: You should be able to use you 77mm lens cap. I do with mine.

Q: 9. With all VND filters, can they be used with a standard UV lens protector or does it have to be removed before attaching the VND? Would rather be any problems/colour shift etc, using both?

A: You can use a VND screwed onto a UV filter, however... you may experience vignetting when shooting at wider angles as you are stacking filters (vignetting is when the camera sensor sees the filter rings, this causes dark corners). Also, a VND filter is highly recommended for still photography to aperture/control your depth of field when shooting in bright light and to control your shutter speed for long exposures during daylight. For video it's a great tool to control depth of field.

Q: 10. Can/Should this be used in conjunction with a UV filter?

A: We recommend always having a Tiffen UV filter on your lens. The Tiffen VND can attach to the outside filter threads on the UV filter, however when shooting at wide angle you may experience vignetting. If so, you will have to remove the UV filter and just shoot with the VND.
