PolarPro PMVND Edition II Filter

The diffusion effect softens harsh highlights and slightly reduces contrast, giving your footage a more cinematic, film-like quality. It helps take the 'digital edge' off sharp 4K or 8K sensors, making skin tones look smoother and light sources appear more natural.

The filter is engineered to be vignetting-free down to 16mm focal lengths. If you are shooting wider than 16mm, you may begin to see some darkening in the corners of your frame.

The filter features tactile clicks as you rotate it, allowing you to feel exactly how many stops of light you are cutting without needing to look away from your viewfinder or monitor. This makes it much easier to adjust your exposure on the fly while keeping your eyes on the shot.

No, this filter is specifically designed to eliminate cross-polarization issues. You can rotate through the full 2-5 stop range without seeing the uneven dark 'X' pattern that often plagues lower-quality variable ND filters.

The Defender360 is a specialized protective case that seals the glass completely. It replaces the need for a standard lens cap while the filter is attached to your lens, keeping the optics protected from dust and scratches during transport.

This specific model has an 82mm diameter and uses a standard threaded mount. As long as your lens has an 82mm filter thread, it will screw on directly. If your lens has a smaller thread size, you would need a step-up ring to use this filter.
