Amazing glads

Amazing piece of glass and it helps tremendously in bright light conditions to cut down on the light and from blowing out the image.

Great results

Works very well for my Tamron 15-30. Although it does have a very slight color shift it is much less than that of other brands, and easily correctable in post. The 6 stop is the perfect nd filter for landscape photography. I’ve used it now for 2 outings for waterfalls, ocean waves, car headlights, etc and I’ve loved the results so far. Glass seems like very good quality and fits perfectly with the NISI filter system.

Glad I switched.

I recently switched from Lee to NiSi filters and I am glad I did. The optical clarity of the NiSi glass filters is top notch. The ND 64 performs beautifully when used with the NiSi filter holder.

Great filters for serious amateurs starting out with long exposure photography

I purchased the 6-stop ND, 10-stop ND, and 3-stop soft GND on sale for $100 each to use with the Nisi V5 Pro. The filters come with a nice padded pouch that protects the filters well. The foam lining on the ND filters is a nice touch that minimizes light leak. The soft GND filter has a very gradual transition, so the medium GND might be a better choice for harsher transitions. Optically, the filters perform extremely well and I cannot discern any decrease in sharpness at 100% zoom on a 24MP, full-frame sensor. The filters are fairly color neutral and only exhibit a minimal magenta cast that is easily corrected in post-processing. I did notice that the shape of sunstars was somewhat affected by the filters, and flaring was more pronounced with more filters. Overall I am extremely pleased with these filters.

Solid Filter

I've only had it for a few weeks but it works well. Filters come in a soft pouch to keep them protected. I found that stacking the 3 stop and 6 stop creates weird noise and a bit of hazing on both my monitor and EVF even at low ISO but the images seem sharp and don't have the display noise that I mentioned. Overall very nice filters. I would buy them again.

Excellent value and quality for the money.

Be ready for your next photography adventure with the NiSi Explorer Collection 100x100mm Nano IR Neutral Density Filter - ND8 (0.9) - 3 Stop. This high-quality, durable filter is part of our innovative Explorer Series, designed specifically for the active photographer.

Constructed with a special glass hardening process, this filter boasts double the strength of a typical glass filter, making it less prone to accidental breakage. The ND8 3 Stop filter is a versatile tool, commonly used for capturing the mesmerizing flow of waterfalls at shutter speeds ranging from 0.5 seconds to 2 seconds.

Neutral Density (ND) filters effectively reduce the amount of light entering the lens uniformly, enabling greater motion blurring and image detail. This is achieved by allowing a larger aperture and slower shutter speed, particularly useful in bright conditions. ND filters also help balance the contrast between highlights and shadows, ensuring a quality exposure even in challenging lighting conditions.

The NiSi ND filter is crafted from superior optical glass, not resin, and features a nano coating to preserve every bit of detail in your shots. Unlike other filters, it does not affect the coloration of the image, offering a true-to-life color representation.

One of the standout features of this filter is its infrared suppression coating. This innovative feature eliminates infrared light that can cause unwanted red color casts and reduce image sharpness, ensuring accurate color representation and high contrast in your images.

The NiSi Explorer Collection is made from B270 tempered glass and features the same Nano coating process as our optical glass filters. This 100x100mm filter is compatible with the NiSi 100mm filter system, making it a versatile addition to your camera gear. It's suitable for cameras with lenses that have a standard filter thread from 49 mm to 95mm.

Please note that while this filter is hardened and tempered to resist accidental damage, it is not unbreakable, and its hardening may decline over time.

Choose the NiSi Explorer Collection 100x100mm Nano IR Neutral Density Filter - ND8 (0.9) - 3 Stop for your next outdoor photography session and experience the difference in quality and performance.
