Neutral density camera filter NiSi 500169 67 mm

The NiSi Neutral Density camera filter (model TC ND-VARIO 67, EAN 6972949372910) is a variable ND filter for lenses with 67 mm front filter threads. It provides exposure reduction from 1 to 5 stops (0.3–1.5 density), allowing longer shutter speeds or wider apertures while maintaining neutral color balance and high resolution. Constructed from high-definition optical glass with NiSi Nano coating, the filter offers waterproof, oil-proof and anti-reflective properties to reduce ghosting and reflections. A numbered rotating front ring with silver side knurlings and an optional silver lever enables precise and repeatable adjustment of density.

Advantages

The variable design covers a continuous range from 1 to 5 stops without changing filters, enabling control of motion blur and depth of field. True Color technology minimizes color shift common in variable ND filters. High-definition optical glass preserves image resolution, while the NiSi Nano coating repels water and oil and reduces reflections. The lightweight yet durable aluminum filter ring with tactile knurlings and clear stop markings ensures secure handling and repeatable settings.

Suitable for

• Long exposure landscape photography
• Motion blur and flow effects for water or clouds
• Video and cinema shooting where controlled aperture and frame rate are required
• Portraits and shallow depth-of-field shots in bright conditions

How to use

Screw the filter onto a lens with a 67 mm front thread. Rotate the front ring to increase or decrease density until the desired exposure change (1–5 stops) is achieved; use the included silver lever for finer or faster adjustment if needed. Meter the scene or use the camera’s histogram to determine required exposure compensation when slowing the shutter or opening the aperture. For video, adjust the filter in combination with aperture to retain the intended frame rate while achieving the desired depth of field.

Usage recommendations

For best results, set white balance after fitting the filter and check for vignetting at wide-angle focal lengths. Avoid extreme polarization angles by testing density settings before critical takes; clean the Nano-coated surface with a soft, lint-free cloth and appropriate lens cleaner.
