PolarPro - Vario VND - 82 mm - 2/5 stops - MIST Edition II - Peter McKinnon - Zero vignetting - haptic feedback mechanism - Ideal for run-n-gun videography/filmmaking

PolarPro VND Diffusion filter 2/5 stops Mist Edition 82mm PolarPro's combined VND diffusion filter corrects 2 to 5 stops of light, with the diffusion portion of the filter softening the digital focus for a smooth, ethereal look. This high-quality Mist filter is for camera lenses with an 82mm thread. The filter was created in collaboration with renowned videographer Peter McKinnon. VND Diffusion filter - Mist Edition With a variable ND filter, you have full control over the shutter speed in all lighting conditions. It also gives you better control, for example, over a smooth looking frame rate in slow motion during video recording. The four possible settings correct the light by 2 to 5 stops. This is equivalent to a ND4 to ND32 grey filter. This VND filter is ideal if you are shooting during sunrise or sunset, when the amount of light is diminishing. The diffusion part of the filter adds a dreamy and smooth look to the footage. It also gives a polished look to subjects without sacrificing contrast and colour accuracy. This soft look adds an extra layer of production value. Ideal for creative shots in documentaries, short films, music videos and other commercial projects. The golden perfection The filter is made of two pieces of PolarPro CinemaSeries glass that you can rotate over each other to let the desired amount of light fall onto your lens. The high-quality glass provides great optical quality and is completely colour-neutral. The gold-coloured aluminium mount has a laser-engraved stop indicator, so you can read exactly how many f-stops of light are stopped by the filter. When adjusting the ring to one of four settings, you feel a soft click at each stop. This haptic perception allows you to feel with your fingers that the filter has reached a different stop. This allows you to adjust the filter without taking your eyes off the camera's view finder. It also eliminates cross-polarization and vignetting, even at 16mm focal lengths. Defender360 - no fingerprints on your glass PolarPro's fog filter comes in a Defender360 case which can also serve as a lens cap. Because of the special lens cap you won't get fingerprints on the filter when you turn it on your lens. With the protective case you never have to touch the glass of the filter. The eco-friendly packaging of the Mist Edition II also includes a microfibre cleaning cloth in case you accidentally touch the glass.
