Neutral density camera filter Calumet CALSAN0467 — 67 mm, single-piece, black/transparent

The Calumet CALSAN0467 is a single-piece 67 mm neutral density (ND) camera filter designed to reduce the amount of light reaching the lens, enabling longer exposures and wider apertures for controlled motion blur and shallow depth of field. Constructed with 28 multilayer coatings, the filter preserves image quality while providing surface protection and a slim profile that minimizes vignetting on wide-angle lenses. The filter has a black/transparent appearance and fits lenses with a 67 mm filter thread.

Advantages

The CALSAN0467 ND filter offers reliable light reduction to extend shutter speeds and allow creative use of aperture in bright conditions. Its 28-layer coating system improves contrast and reduces reflections and ghosting while adding scratch and water resistance for everyday use. The slim design reduces the risk of vignetting on wide-angle setups and maintains lens handling without adding excessive bulk.

Suitable for

• Landscape photography requiring long exposures (e.g., smoothing water or cloud movement)
• Portraits where a wide aperture and shallow depth of field are desired in bright light
• Architectural and urban scenes where long exposures help remove moving subjects
• Video production to maintain cinematic shutter speeds and aperture in bright conditions
• General outdoor and creative photography needing exposure control

Key specifications

• Filter type: Neutral density (ND)
• Thread size: 67 mm
• Density: ND4 (light reduction appropriate for the specified model line)
• Coating: 28 multilayer coatings for improved transmission and reduced reflections
• Finish: black/transparent optical surface
• Resistance: water-repellent and scratch-resistant coatings
• Form factor: single-piece, ultra-slim profile to minimize vignetting

How to use

Attach the Calumet CALSAN0467 to a lens with a 67 mm filter thread by screwing the filter onto the front of the lens until secure. Use in bright conditions when you need to reduce incoming light to achieve longer shutter speeds or to open the aperture for shallower depth of field. Compose and focus before applying very long exposures if using manual focus; consider using a tripod and a remote release or camera timer to avoid camera shake. Clean the coated surface with a suitable microfibre cloth and lens cleaning solution to maintain optical performance.

Usage recommendations

The filter is suitable for long-exposure landscape work, portraiture in bright light, architectural photography and video. For best results, pair the filter with a sturdy tripod when using extended shutter speeds, check for vignetting on very wide-angle lenses, and store the filter in a protective case when not in use to preserve the coating.
