Tokina 105mm Cinema PRO IRND 1.5 Filter - 5 Stops

Why settle for less when you can have the best of both worlds with the 105mm Cinema PRO IRND 1.5 Filter - 5 Stops This high-quality, durable filter is a must-have for any serious cinematographer. Unlike most high-end cinema cameras that lack a built-in low-pass or IR cut filter, this product is designed to mimic the human eye, capturing as much data as possible from the image subject.

The more sensitive your camera is to light, the more exposure needs to be maintained. This is where our effective and versatile filter comes in. It uses a stronger ND filter to manage exposure, eliminating the common issue of infrared pollution. While many camera manufacturers recommend the use of an IRND filter, most on the market today come with adverse side effects like color shifting.

Our reliable filter, however, is different. Developed by the innovative team at Kenko Tokina, it utilizes Accu-ND Technology to create a Neutral Density filter that precisely controls the amount of light entering the lens without affecting the color. This revolutionary filter stabilizes the transmittance of color throughout the visible spectrum, eliminating the need for constant white balance adjustments and post-shoot color corrections.

The 105mm Cinema PRO IRND 1.5 Filter - 5 Stops is available in two styles: round and square/rectangular. The round filter features an ND vapor deposition coating on both sides of the glass, creating a high precision, truly neutral filter. The square/rectangular filter, on the other hand, has an ND vapor deposition coating sandwiched between two layers of glass, allowing for repeated re-polishing should it get scratched, thereby extending the filter's lifespan.

Unlike other IRND filters that cut the near infrared from a particular wavelength, our filter suppresses rather than cuts the infrared up to 1200nm, eliminating infrared pollution. This method is less prone to producing unwanted color shifts, making the 105mm Cinema PRO IRND 1.5 Filter - 5 Stops a superior choice for professional cinematographers.
