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.

The NiSi Explorer Collection 100x100mm Nano IR Neutral Density ND64 (1.8) 6-Stop Filter is a premium choice for adventure-seeking photographers. This filter, part of our robust Explorer Series, is designed with a unique glass hardening process that makes it twice as durable as standard glass filters. This enhanced strength makes the Explorer series less susceptible to accidental damage, making it an ideal companion for active photographers.

Neutral Density (ND) filters, like this one, uniformly decrease the amount of light entering the lens. This allows for greater motion blurring and image detail by enabling a larger aperture and slower shutter speed. ND filters are particularly useful when the contrast between highlights and shadows is too high to achieve a quality exposure.

The ND64 6-stop ND filter is typically used during the golden hour to create exposures of 1-2 minutes, resulting in smooth water or cloud effects. It's also excellent for capturing dynamic water while maintaining some texture before the golden hour.

NiSi ND filters are designed to maintain the true coloration of the image. They are crafted from high-quality optical glass (not resin) and feature a nano coating to prevent any loss of detail. These filters also include an infrared protection coating layer to eliminate infrared light that can cast an unwanted red hue to photos when shooting at a small aperture.

The NiSi Explorer Collection is crafted from B270 tempered glass and undergoes the same Nano coating process as our optical glass filters. This filter is tempered and hardened for added durability, but it's important to note that it is not unbreakable and its hardening may decline over time.

The NiSi 100mm filter system is compatible with cameras with lenses that have a standard filter thread from 49mm to 95mm. This 100x100mm filter is compatible with the NiSi 100mm filter system, making it a versatile addition to any photographer's toolkit.
