Overview

The Neewer 10103190 True Color Variable ND Filter in 77mm is designed to give photographers and videographers smooth, continuous control over light reduction from 1 stop (ND2) to 8.6 stops (approximately ND400). This wide range makes it possible to shoot long exposures of waterfalls and rivers in bright daylight, maintain wide apertures for shallow depth of field in outdoor video work, or capture light trails without overexposing the frame — all without swapping between multiple fixed ND filters. The "True Color" designation reflects Neewer's multi-layer coating formula, which is engineered to minimize the color cast that plagues many variable ND filters, particularly at higher density settings.

Mechanically, the filter features precisely positioned hard stops at both the minimum and maximum density points, preventing the user from rotating into the cross-polarization zone that causes the infamous X-pattern artifact. The CNC-machined knurled aluminum ring provides tactile, controlled rotation for dialing in exact density levels, while the slim frame profile helps minimize vignetting on wider focal lengths. The multi-coated HD optical glass provides practical protection against water, dust, oil, and fingerprints — a meaningful benefit for outdoor and travel shooting where cleaning opportunities are limited. At 77mm, it fits a wide range of professional and prosumer lenses directly, and can be adapted to smaller filter threads with step-up rings.

Key Features

【Variable Neutral Density Camera Lens Filter】NEEWER 77mm True Colors Variable Neutral Density Filter for the camera lens is here to revolutionize your photography game with excellent abilities of greater control over exposure, shutter speeds, and apertures. Perfect for capturing landscapes such as stunning rivers, breathtaking waterfalls, and captivating light trails with fluid and soft look

【Precisely Positioned Hard Stops】Upgraded with hard stops at both ends to limit this VND filter within 1 to 8.6 Stops (about ND2 to ND400). Dialing to the exact marked stop allows you to achieve the desired precise ND level for a perfectly exposed shot. Note: The mechanism of variable ND filters is based on the principle of polarization. Using the maximum aperture may result in an X black cross due to the VND filter's interaction with certain lenses and focal lengths

【True to Life Vivid Color Reproduction】 This ND filter fulfills the True Colors effect to produce true to life color. Let you spend more time on creations rather than post processing for color correction

【Lightweight Aluminum Frame】 Firmly sealed with the ultra slim aluminum alloy frame, the filter delivers your desired effect with ease. The CNC precisely machining knurled ring ensures a secure grip for easy filter mounting and removal

【Multi Coated Premium HD Optical Glass】With multiple layers of coatings, the filter’s high definition optical glass can effectively reduce glare and reflection to capture vivid colors and manage contrast without losing image sharpness. In addition, it also protects against water, dust, oil, fingerprints, and scratches, making it easy to maintain and worry free in various environments and conditions

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

True Color coating preserves accurate color reproduction, reducing the need for white balance correction in post.
Hard stops at both ends prevent accidentally dialing into the unusable cross-polarization zone.
Multi-coated HD optical glass resists water, oil, fingerprints, and scratches for easy field maintenance.
CNC-machined knurled aluminum ring provides a secure, precise grip for adjusting density.
Covers a wide 1 to 8.6 stop range (ND2–ND400) in a single filter, replacing the need to carry multiple fixed ND filters.

👎 Cons

At maximum density near ND400, some lens and focal length combinations may still produce the X-pattern dark cross artifact.
The 77mm thread size does not fit smaller lenses without step-up adapter rings, adding bulk and potential vignetting.
Variable ND filters inherently add two layers of glass, which can slightly reduce sharpness compared to a single fixed ND filter.
The slim frame, while reducing vignetting, makes it harder to grip and rotate compared to thicker-framed alternatives.
No included lens cap or protective case is guaranteed with all packaging variations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What ND range does this filter cover?

The Neewer 10103190 covers 1 to 8.6 stops of light reduction, which corresponds approximately to ND2 through ND400. Hard stops at both ends prevent you from accidentally dialing past the usable range.

Will this filter cause a color cast on my photos?

This filter is specifically designed with a "True Color" coating to minimize color shifting. Unlike many variable ND filters that introduce a warm or magenta cast, this one aims to reproduce colors accurately so you spend less time correcting white balance in post-processing.

What is the X-pattern dark cross that can appear with variable ND filters?

At higher density settings, some lens and focal length combinations can produce a visible dark X-shaped pattern across the image. This is an inherent characteristic of variable ND filters caused by the interaction of two polarizing elements. Avoiding the maximum density setting or using it with moderate focal lengths typically prevents this issue.

Can I stack other filters on top of this variable ND?

The slim aluminum frame is designed to reduce vignetting, but stacking additional filters on top of a variable ND increases the risk of vignetting, especially on wide-angle lenses. If you need to stack, test at your widest focal length first.

Does the filter come with a protective case?

Check the specific listing for included accessories, as packaging may vary. The filter itself features water-repellent, scratch-resistant, and oil-resistant coatings to protect the glass during everyday use.
