The 84 x 100mm Cokin NUANCES P Series ND Filter 84x100mm 3-Stopis designed for use with a Cokin P Series Filter Holder. It can be applied to darken the sky, specifically along the horizon during a sunrise or sunset, while allowing for a normal, unaffected exposure in the other regions of the image.

This filter achieves its effect with a 0.9 band of density across its center region that provides up to a 3-stop reduction in light from entering a lens. The band of density extends approximately 0.8" in both vertical directions before tapering to clear below and above, with soft-edged lines of transition before the clear areas. The clear areas then extend approximately 1.6" until they meet the top and bottom edges of the filter.

A narrow 0.9 band of density with larger clear areas directly above and below it allows the Cokin NUANCES Extreme P Series Center-Graduated Neutral Density 0.9 Filter to specifically match the positioning of the sun when it is at, or immediately above, the horizon. In such instances, the sun will appear closer to the center of an image as opposed to the upper edge, and an increase in brightness is created which is much more prominent on both sides of the sun than either above or below it. This pattern of brightness corresponds to the density pattern on the Cokin NUANCES Extreme P Series Center-Graduated Neutral Density 0.9 Filter. The soft-edged lines of transition in this filter are useful for images that have features alongside the sun that cannot be confined within the band of density.

Cokin NUANCES Extreme filters are constructed from tempered, shock-resistant glass and feature nano-metallic alloy film coatings on both sides of the filter surface to attenuate infrared light while maintaining true color fidelity, even when stacked with other Cokin NUANCES or NUANCES Extreme filters. Anti-glare coatings further help to reduce surface reflections for increased contrast and clarity, while additional hydrophobic coatings result in an improved beading effect when in contact with water for greater cleaning efficiency. Additionally, Cokin NUANCES Extreme filters feature C-shaped edges. This rounded edge shape resists chipping to further enhance durability.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. In one part, the overview, it says they are optical resin. In the specifications it says they are glass. Which is it?

A: Glass in the specifications is a typo. Each filter is made of durable, optical resin (CR39) and measures 1.6mm thick.

Q: 2. Are the Cokin 4-color filters made of glass or plastic/resin?

A: The P series filters like these would be comprised of resin.

Q: 3. Is there a graduated filter made for the P series and is the p series large enough for my 67mm lens? sorry!

A: Here is the kit with the graduated filters. Please take a look at the following link: https://bhpho.to/2UD13bF And you would need this 67mm adapter ring: https://bhpho.to/2WKbw7D The P series filters are able to cover lenses up to 82mm in diameter.

Q: 4. Will it hold filters with dimensions of 84 x 98mm, like the Ice P series ND filters?

A: Yes it holds filters up to 84x100mm.

Q: 5. Can they be stacked together to increase the final f-stop. i.e. 1 f-stop filter + 3 f-stop = 4 f-stop?

A: Yes they can!

Q: 6. Do the filters come in their own hard plastic protective box?

A: Yes, they are individual.

Q: 7. Will any Cokin P-sized adapter ring (i.e 52 mm) fit on this Cokin EVO filter holder or does it require a special EVO adapter?

A: Yes

Q: 8. Is the Conkin 4 color filters useable with digital cameras or film cameras only?

A: Yes, you can use these filters with digital cameras as well.

Q: 9. How firmly does the adapter ring attach to the Cokin EVO filter holder? Can the filter holder fall off or is there a tab or something to lock it in place?

A: The adapter ring is threaded and screws into the filter holder. It is not going anywhere.

Q: 10. Is this filter compatible with the Cokin P series, and what is its size. thanksAntoine

A: Hello,Yes, the Cokin P153 Gray Neutral Density (ND) 4x Resin Filter is apart of Cokin's P series and will fit in P holders. The P size is 84mm's x 84mm's but is commonly referred to a P filter.
