Rated 5 out of 5

The Schneider filter is a quality piece of glass

The Schneider filter is thicker than the slot in the ProOptic frame. I had a machine shop make a small shim and the two now work together just fine. The Schneider filter is a quality piece of glass--well worth the trouble to figure out how to mount it on my Nikon.

The Schneider Optics 6.6 x 6.6 inch ND Filter is used for Cinematography. It has a Neutral Density of 0.3 (1 stop) and therefore reduces transmission by 50%. A common use for this filter is to allow the use of larger apertures, reducing depth of field, to allow selective focus and rack focus.

Schneider ND Filter Features

  • To enable slow shutter speeds to be used, especially with high speed films, to record movement in subjects such as waterfalls, clouds, or cars
  • To decrease depth of field by allowing wider apertures to be used, which helps separate subjects from their background
  • To decrease the effective ISO of high speed film (above ISO 400) and allow it to be used outdoors in bright situations
  • To allow cine and video cameras (which have fixed shutter speeds) to film subjects such as snow, sand or other bright scenes which could cause overexposure
  • High-Quality Construction: Schneider Optics filter features crystal clear, water-white optical glass, protected against edge-chipping and delamination by Schneider's unique Edge Seal, which also significantly reduces edge reflections and flare
  • Schneider Quality Control: Schneider Optics filter is ground and polished to a precise flatness and plane parallelism
  • Schneider Optics filter is designed and manufactured with the highest possible degree of consistency, you can swap like filters mid-shoot with no discernible variation in color or effect
