Just when you thought your landscape photography couldn't get any more breathtaking, the 77mm 15-Stop X4 Neutral Density Filter by Breakthrough Photography elevates your craft to new heights. This high-quality ND filter is the epitome of innovation, combining meticulous research with advanced manufacturing techniques to deliver the most color-neutral results for the discerning photographer.Crafted with SCHOTT Superwhite B270 optical glass, renowned for its ultra-clear properties and superior light transmission across the ultraviolet, visible, and infrared spectrums, this filter ensures exceptional image quality. The continuous draw glass manufacturing process results in a high surface quality that is perfectly compatible with our state-of-the-art MRC and nanotec coatings.Our proprietary MRC16 coating, applied to both surfaces of the glass, enhances durability and reduces reflections. This multi-resistant coating is structurally harder than the glass itself, ensuring less light is lost and stray light is minimized. The outcome is a noticeable improvement in image contrast and color fidelity, setting your work apart from the rest.The X4 ND filter is not just effective; it's also built to last. Designed as a workhorse for fieldwork, it's engineered to endure extreme environmental conditions, from gusty winds and saltwater to dust and debris. The weather-sealed construction guarantees that your filter will remain reliable in even the most challenging shooting scenarios.Incorporating our cutting-edge nanotec Nano Coatings Technology, the X4 ND ensures that water and other elements bead rather than absorb and smear, maintaining the pristine quality of your images. This attention to detail is what makes the X4 ND filter a versatile and essential tool for photographers and videographers alike.Our commitment to excellence is backed by a 25 Year Ironclad Guarantee, supported by US-based customer service through phone, email, and live chat. We stand firmly behind the performance and durability of our filters.The X4 ND filter boasts the flattest transmission curve of any ND filter on the market, ensuring the most color-neutral results. Unlike traditional ND filters that often exhibit a blue or magenta cast, especially at higher densities, our alternative manufacturing method has overcome this common pitfall, delivering a filter that maintains a controlled and flat transmission throughout the visible spectrum and into IR.A breakthrough in design, the filter frame has been reimagined from the ground up. The high-quality brass CNC machined frame with our signature traction design allows for easy attachment and removal, even in cold conditions while wearing gloves.Choose the 77mm 15-Stop X4 Neutral Density Filter for its unparalleled color neutrality, high surface quality, and robust construction. It's the reliable choice for photographers who demand the best in color fidelity and image clarity, no matter where their passion takes them.

This ND filter is perfectly neutral with no discernible color cast, just as advertised. Image quality is not impacted. It is well built and screws onto and off of the lens easily. When stacked on top of the Breakthrough UV/protection filter there is no vignette at 24mm on my Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L lens. The lens cap and lens hood fit without interference. This 6-stop filter is just a tad more than six stops requiring a +1/3-stop adjustment to exactly match the exposure without the filter. Overall, a very impressive piece of gear.

Almost Perfect

Breakthrough Photography filters have been reliably high-quality products for me and this one is no different.

Great filter with nearly zero color shift

So far it?s worked great. No color casting.

Works great. No color casting

Breakthrough Photography?s X4 series ND filters are excellent. Minimal tint and no vignette. I can?t recommend them enough. I have them for all my lenses. Great product!

Excellent Filters!

Breakthrough makes the best Optical filter glass on the planet.  As a professional photographer, I need edge to edge sharpness that doesnt fall off or distort, or refract in odd ways that cheaper filters do.  For long exposures - this is my go to filter of Choice,
Like:  Highest quality in a thin filter.  
Dislike: High price for quality - but worth it, for excellent results everytime.

Pro photographer filter of choice for long exp!

Love this filter. Excellent filter that's sharp and doesn't have any color gradient.

Great filter

Top quality ND filter.  Brass threads.  Highest quality glass. Happy with purchase.

When only the best quality will do!

Breakthrough Filter

It's a filter.  It does what it is supposed to do.  What else do you need to know?

Excellent Filter

Great filter. No Color shifting.

Great quality. This filter doesn?t seem to impact the color or sharpness of photos.

Awesome filter

Great filter. Well built and with brass threads very easy to install and remove. No color fringing or distortion as far as I can tell. Packaging and case is pretty basic, but that?s my only minor complaint.

Solid performance

I have not had a chance to use this but I can say build quality I give it 5 stars the grooves are really nice for gripping and I'm sure the glass will be vary good I have a feeling I will be picking up more. packing and shipping no complaints Adorama custmer service THE BEST

AWESOME

Excellent filter. Expensive but so is the lens I use it with. Very clear no distortion accurate color

Best ND ever

I didn't even know these existed, but it turned out to be perfect for the application!

Just the ticket!

Excellent quality filter with almost no vignetting

Excellent Quality!

Once you have the best, it’s hard to consider anything else. I have a 10 stop and a 6 stop. Can’t recommend this filter enough.

Top quality, build and clarity.

Have only used this bad boy once so far, but it was AWESOME. Also, incredibly easy to thread on and off. No perceptible color shift really at all. Definitely worth the price tag.

Excellent ND filter

Easy to use, with serrated edge. No color cast. I have a 6 stop ND and can stack if needed. Would recommend.

Excellent choice

This is my first breakthrough filter I have purchased. I purchased it because of the good reviews. I have only used it a couple of times and it did not disappoint. My favorite feature of this filter is the wide band that has a very deep rib around it that makes it ever so easy to take off the camera. I will continue to purchase these filters for their quality and ease of removal. Thank you Breakthrough.

Quality lens and easy to remove

Best and most color neutral filters on the market. Easy to grip to install and remove too. The Schott glass of the X4s compliment the finest glass of our lenses with zero degradation

Best I've ever used!

Can't recommend this enough! Great product with little to no effect on color and nice brass finish! Definitely worth every bit of its pricetag!

Best filters in the game!

Appears to be well built and the "traction frame" really does make it easier to grip when threading on or off of a lens. I have only used it a couple of times so far, but have not noticed any color cast or had any other performance issues. As I can see no faults at this point I would give it a full five stars.

Quality addition to my kit

Fantastic filters, well worth the price.The results are very rewarding.I find the filters also quite resilient to all sorts of weather such as rain, salt water etc.

Fantastic filters!

I haven't had chance to use it yet, but build quality is solid.

Well built filter

I’m a hybrid shooter (pictures/video) and considered these filters for a while. I started with cheap filters as I learned which was ok w/proper WB but some of that color shift always seemed to linger.

I have tried medium priced options as well, and variable ND’s. They are ok, but honestly not a huge jump from just the cheap $30 solid ND set I had started with. 

People say VND is the way to go for video shooters, but it just doesn't make sense as most of the quality VND’s are 2-5 stops, and then 6-9 stops so you wind up switching filters anyways. 

So I opted for top quality solid ND’s in 3/6 stop. This covers most uses, and just bump up ISO a bit at worst. Very happy with color. Saves so much time in post, time is money! On Sony A7iii with 16-35GM no vignette at 16mm. 

Glad I went with this over variable ND’s (which may have their place), but quality wins over trying to avoid a 5 second filter change in my opinion.

An awesome filter, little to no color cast, great build quality!

Fit and finish are exceptional, true colors and the brass ring/threads are top quality!
