  • Filter Size: 52mm
  • Filter Type: Variable ND (Neutral Density)
  • ND Range: ND8 - ND128 (3-7 Stops)
  • Coating: 30 Multi-Layer Nano Coatings
  • Material: Japanese AGC Optical Glass, Aviation Aluminum Frame
  • Features: No X Cross, Waterproof, Oil Resistant, Dustproof, Scratch Resistant

Key Features

【5 Stops Variable ND Filter】 The NEEWER ND8–ND128 Variable Filter is adjustable from 3 to 7 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.

【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.

【High-end Materials and Design】 Imported Japanese AGC 4-element HD 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.

【NOTE】 This filter is compatible with all ø52mm lenses. Vignetting may occur with telephoto lenses, which is a normal situation. For this 52mm ND filter, the lens cap/hood should be 55mm.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Adjustable from 3 to 7 stops, the ND8–ND128 filter allows precise light reduction for extended exposures and wider apertures.
  • Advanced cutting-edge technology prevents the "X" cross mark and other common problems with variable ND filters, even with wide-angle and telephoto lenses.
  • Features 30 layers of double-sided multi-layered Nano-coatings, reducing glare, ghosting, and blocking UV rays while ensuring accurate color reproduction.
  • Constructed with imported Japanese AGC 4-element HD optical glass for optimal neutrality and accurate color contrast.
  • The ultra-slim CNC non-slip aviation aluminum frame prevents wide-angle vignetting, ensuring durability and anti-snagging performance.

👎 Cons

  • Vignetting may occur when using this filter with telephoto lenses, which is a normal but potentially undesirable situation.
  • The filter's rotation range is limited to approximately 70°, which might feel restrictive for some users seeking finer adjustments.
  • Requires a 55mm lens cap or hood, meaning users with 52mm caps will need to purchase an additional accessory.
  • The sophisticated Nano-coatings, while protective, add to the cost and may require specific cleaning care to maintain their integrity.
  • While it prevents the "X" cross, variable ND filters inherently introduce some level of compromise compared to individual fixed ND filters.
