Overview

The Neewer 49mm ND2-ND32 Variable Neutral Density Filter gives photographers and videographers a simple, compact way to manage exposure in changing light. By rotating the outer ring, you dial in anywhere from 1 to 5 stops of light reduction, making it easy to use wider apertures for shallow depth of field in bright conditions or to achieve slower shutter speeds for motion blur effects — all without stacking multiple fixed ND filters on your lens.

Built with an ultra-slim aluminum alloy frame, the filter is designed to minimize vignetting, especially on moderate wide-angle lenses. The optical glass element features a multi-layer nano coating that repels water and resists scratches, while also cutting down on ghosting and internal reflections. At this price point, it is one of the more accessible variable ND options on the market, making it a sensible first ND filter for hobbyists or a lightweight backup for working professionals.

Key Features

【1-5 Stops Variable ND Filter】 The NEEWER ND2-ND32 Variable Filter is adjustable from 1 to 5 stops, with a rotating ring to reduce light intake and extend exposure time when shooting at slower shutter speeds and wider apertures. Perfect for capturing rivers, waterfalls, light trails and other moving subjects with dynamic motion blur.

【Without Black "X" Cross】 The rotation range is limited to approximately 70°, and advanced cutting-edge technology lets you say goodbye to the "X" cross mark on images and other common problems with variable ND filters for wide-angle and telephoto lenses.

【High-end Materials and Design】 Imported Japanese AGC 4-element optical glass ensures optimal neutrality and accurate color contrast and reproduction. Ultra-slim CNC non-slip aviation aluminum frame prevents wide-angle vignetting and ensures durability and anti-snagging.

【Double-sided Multi-layered Nano-Coatings】 With 30 layers of Nano coating, the minimum light reflection rate is less than 0.1%, which reduces glare and ghosting, and also blocks UV rays from 300 to 380nm, while ensuring accurate color reproduction. Waterproof, oil-proof, dirt-proof and scratch-proof.

【NOTE】 For long exposure, please purchase fixed value ND such as ND1000. Some ultra-wide-angle lenses may appear cross-shaped. Vignetting may occur with telephoto lenses, which is a normal situation.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

Adjustable ND2-ND32 range eliminates the need to carry multiple fixed ND filters.
Ultra-slim aluminum alloy frame reduces the risk of vignetting on wider-angle lenses.
Multi-layer nano coating resists water spots, scratches, and lens flare.
Very affordable entry point for photographers and videographers new to ND filtration.

👎 Cons

Maximum of 5 stops may not be enough for long-exposure photography in bright daylight.
Variable ND design can introduce a visible X-pattern artifact near the ND32 end of the range.
49mm thread size limits compatibility to smaller lenses; users with larger lenses will need a different size.
Budget-grade optical glass may show slight color cast compared to premium variable ND filters.

Frequently Asked Questions

What range of neutral density does this filter provide?

It adjusts from ND2 to ND32, which translates to 1 to 5 stops of light reduction. This lets you slow shutter speeds or open apertures in bright conditions.

Does this filter produce an X-pattern or cross artifact at higher ND settings?

Variable ND filters can exhibit a cross-shaped artifact near their maximum setting. At ND32 this filter may show slight vignetting or cross patterns, which is common for variable ND designs in this price range.

What is the filter thread size?

This filter fits lenses with a 49mm front thread. It will not fit larger or smaller thread sizes without a step-up or step-down adapter ring.

Is the coating effective at reducing reflections and water spots?

The multi-layer nano coating is designed to repel water and reduce ghosting and flare, helping maintain image clarity when shooting in varied conditions.
