This 15-stop, 95mm NiSi PRO Nano IRND 95mm 15-Stop Filteris an ND filter with a 32000x filter factor that provides a 15-stop exposure reduction. Its 4.5 optical 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 or increasing your aperture, you are able to control depth of field and convey movement more easily. Neutral density filters are intended to not affect the coloration of the image and are ideal for pairing with other filters.

The design of this filter has been optimized for use with digital sensors and to promote nearly flat attenuation of visible and infrared light. Due to imaging sensors' greater susceptibility to infrared light, compared to traditional film, color casts can occur when photographing darker subjects that require increased exposure times. To provide a high level of neutrality across the visible and infrared spectrums in order to eliminate color casts and ensure cleaner, truer blacks when using the NiSi 95mm PRO Nano IRND 4.5 Filter, one layer of NiSi Optical Nano Coating is applied to each of this filter's surfaces. The Nano coating associated with this filter also results in an improved beading effect when in contact with water or oil for greater cleaning efficiency.

This NiSi 95mm PRO Nano IRND 4.5 Filter is constructed from optical glass for clarity as well as color fidelity, and features a brass filter ring to minimize the potential for vignetting while enhancing durability and jamming prevention.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this VARIO Pro Nano help with IR pollution for the Blackmagic cameras?

A: No, it will not. The NiSi 77mm True Color ND-VARIO Pro Nano 1-5 Stop Variable Neutral Density Filter does not have infrared (IR) cut capability. For cinema cameras like the Blackmagic cameras, NiSi recommends their solid ND Neutral Density filter line which has IR reduction such as the NiSi 77mm PRO Nano IRND or NiSi 77mm HUC PRO Nano IRND filter lines.

Q: 2. What color will the sun be orange or white ? The sample photos show both.

A: The NiSi Solar Filter Pro Nano UV/IR Cut ND100000 Filter (77mm, 16.5-Stop) will provide the most color-neutral results. The saturation of the color is based on post image editing and/or the brightness of the sun.

Q: 3. Will the 105mm fit the Canon CN-E 15.5 - 47mm?

A: The NiSi True Color ND-VARIO Pro Nano 1 to 5-Stop Variable ND Filter (105mm) will fit the Canon CN-E 15.5-47mm T2.8 L S Wide-Angle Cinema Zoom Lens with EF Mount.

Q: 4. Can I combine this with a Nisi circular polarizer? which should be in front (which determines size i need)?

A: Yes, you can combine with NiSi circular polarizer. The size of the filter will be the same as the ND filter. The circular polarizer should be in front, after the ND filter, circular polarizer is being rotated more often then ND so should have easier access without disturbing exposure. When stacking multiple filters with rotating elements consider having Rubberized Filter Wrench https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1407950-REG/sensei_48_55mm_rubberized_filter_wrench.html of appropriate size due to possible difficulty of separating the filters when taking of the lens.

Q: 5. I wish to use this filter to view the total solar eclipse. Is it good for that?

A: No, the NiSi Solar Filter Pro Nano UV/IR Cut ND100000 Filter (58mm, 16.5-Stop) is not designed for solar eclipse.

Q: 6. Can the hard stop be removable?

A: According to the manufacturer, the hard stops on the NiSi 82mm True Color ND-Vario Pro Nano 1-5 Stops Variable ND Filter cannot be removed. If the variable neutral density filter had no hard stops, cross-type X-banding patterns would occur in your images.

Q: 7. Does it fit to rf 28-70?

A: Yes, the canon 28-70 RF features a 95mm filter ring.

Q: 8. Would combining one of these with the Tilta Mirage's VND filter cause issues? I realize these are IRND and the VND is not, but I'm thinking I may sometimes need more than the 2.7 stops the VND offers.

A: Using the Vaxis VFX 95 IRND 1.5 Filter for Tilta Mirage Matte Box with another ND filter will increase internal reflections from the layers of glass, but it can be done.

Q: 9. How many light steps does it represent?

A: The Vaxis VFX 95 IRND 2.1 Filter for Tilta Mirage Matte Box would reduce the light by 7 stops.

Q: 10. Which solar filter is for the Nikon 400 mirrorless lens?

A: The Nikon NIKKOR Z 400mm f/2.8 TC VR S Lens can use the Tiffen Solar ND Filter (46mm, 16-Stop), B&H # TI46ND48. Note, it is not ISO 12312-2 certified. It should not be used to look directly at the sun with our eyes. It can be used for the camera to take a photo of the sun. Look only in the LCD live view to compose the photo. Do not look in an optical viewfinder.
