Breakthrough's filters have never given me any issues. I can't say the same for any other filter maker.

Using a NDL can achieve some wonderful effects, but like all things in life, it?s not as easy as it seems, especially getting a perfect focus.

Absolutely fantastic. Read this entire story, please. I was out along the North Umpqua River in Oregon making photographs of waterfalls. I often leave my DN filter off to compose and focus. My 60 year-old eyes need the extra brightness. I was screwing this filter back in when it slipped out of my fingers and fell down to the rocks. I thought as it fell, "Well, that's it. $100 bucks gone." But, it bounced on its metal edge and fell to the next rock down. Again, it hit directly on its metal edge and bounced a second time. When it hit a rock for the third time, again, it bounced on its edge and fell even further where it landed in a crevasse in the rocks covered with fresh moss which, cupped it like a pillow. As I climbed down to retrieve it, I was sure it would be destroyed. But to my surprise, it was pristine. Not a scratch or dent on it. Its been two months since this happened and I'm still using it. I'll never buy another brand of filter. Any filter that can take that kind of abuse and live is worth every penny. Buy this filter and don't look back.

Love this ND filter, easy to use, no color cast on the photos, made from high quality materials. Great for long-exposures. I love it so much, I will definitely buy more Breakthrough Photography filters in the future.

I have used this filter several times. It fits my Tokina 11-20mm and my Tamron G2 24-70. I am pretty much covered in my extended exposure photography. No color casting, the colors on my long exposure photos of 123 seconds look amazing.

This is my second filter from Breakthrough Photography. The other is their new circular polarizer. The optical and build qualities of these filters are really excellent! I have been using B+W and they are great, but I've been more impressed with these two BP filters in terms of color quality, optical quality, and material use/craftsmanship. Breakthrough Photography's customer service is unbeatable too, as is their 25 year quarantee!

The first time I placed it on my lens it would not come off, and I did not over tighten. I had to resort to using pliers on my expensive lens to remove it, and of course it was scratched so I could not return it. Now I know what they mean "aluminum tends to bind", spend the extra money and buy the ones made in brass, but despite this the performance is good so I won't disregard this brand all together.

Highly recommended for lessening harsh lighting conditions by darkening exposure and allows for wider apertures. Knurled edge provides grip to attach/detach from lens more easily. 5.5mm edge prevents vignetting..

Very happy with this excellent 6 stop ND. It's surprisingly slender & light weight, and screws on and off my Nikon 16-35 quite smoothly. Best of all, I can see no appreciable color shift in RAW files, it truly deserves its neutral density title. Comes in a sturdy plastic case. Everything to like, nothing to gripe about. It will cost you, but it should be tha last 6 stop ND you'll ever need!

I can't get over how great it felt to screw this filter on and off. The traction that it has built into it is amazing! And the filter works just as good as any of the high end filters that I have owned in the passed!

Great company, great filter
By Davis D.
Breakthrough's filters have never given me any issues. I can't say the same for any other filter maker.
Are you seeking a professional-grade solution to masterfully control light exposure in your photography Look no further than the X2 49mm 10-Stop Neutral Density Filter. This high-quality filter is engineered to deliver critically sharp images and unparalleled color neutrality, surpassing competitors like B+W, Format-Hitech, and Lee Filters in both clarity and performance.
Crafted with precision, the X2 ND filter features Japanese-made H-K9L optical glass, renowned for its exceptional sharpness. The advanced MRC8 coating technology is uniformly applied to eliminate unwanted glare and ghosting, which can be exacerbated during long exposures. This innovative coating is not only effective in enhancing image quality but also adds a durable, scratch-resistant layer to the glass, ensuring that your filter withstands the rigors of frequent fieldwork.
The design and craftsmanship of the X2 ND filter are evident from the first touch. Constructed from environmentally friendly aluminum, the traction frame boasts a matte black finish that absorbs reflections, preventing them from entering the lens barrel. The ultra-slim, 3.5mm double-threaded traction frame is meticulously designed to avoid vignetting, even on wide-angle full-frame setups, while still providing enough surface area for secure lens cap attachment.
Fully equipped for the great outdoors, the X2 ND filter incorporates our cutting-edge nanotec coating, which repels dirt, water, and other elements by beading rather than absorbing. This technology, coupled with a weather-sealed traction frame, ensures that your filter is prepared to endure the harshest environmental conditions.
Every detail of the X2 ND filter is crafted with the utmost attention, including laser-engraved lettering on the traction frame to prevent fading or wear over time. Each filter is also uniquely serialized, linking it to our 25 Year Ironclad Guarantee when registered online. This not only provides you with peace of mind but also contributes to our ongoing product design improvements based on user experience.
Choose the X2 49mm 10-Stop Neutral Density Filter by Breakthrough Photography for a durable, versatile, and effective tool that meets the demands of discerning outdoor photographers. Elevate your craft with a filter that ensures professional, real-world results every time.
