Overview

This 6mm NiSi True Color Variable ND Filter has a range of 1 to 5-stops. It darkens the entire image, allowing a cinematographer to shoot with a wider aperture or slower shutter speed. Density changes are smoothly adjusted by rotating the built-in gear, or by attaching a compatible lens motor for precise control.

Constructed from aluminum and optical glass, the filter measures 6mm thick and takes up two filter stages in a compatible 4 x 5.65″ matte box, though it can also be used without a matte box. It delivers neutral, color-accurate light reduction thanks to NiSi’s high-quality optical glass. The geared ring includes clearly marked stop indicators for easy density reference. Included with the filter are a 0.6″ support rod for mounting a lens motor and a protective soft case.
