Overview
Key Features
【Enchanting Spiral Halo Effect】 This prism effect filter frames your shots with a circular halo, keeping the image clear at the center stage while transitioning the background into a swirling, magnified blur, intensifying the mood and atmosphere without further post editing
【Rotate to Adjust】 Adjust the halo effect by rotating the filter 360° making it more compact and concentrated to more loose and expansive. Avoid shooting directly into bright light or the sun to prevent potential damage to CMOS sensors, lens iris, and other components caused by high temperatures.
【Highly Transparency】 Made of solid K9 optical glass and transmits light with high resolution, thus preserving the quality and accuracy of the images even with the halo effect
【Ultra Slim Frame & Smooth Rotation】 The ultra slim yet sturdy aluminium alloy frame with the advanced CNC precision treatment enables effortless installation, and patterned knurls ensure precise rotation for achieving the best effects
【Package Contents】 1x 77mm Spiral Halo Prism Filter, 1x Cleaning Cloth, 1x Filter Pouch. Note that this filter is compatible with 77mm lenses. You can connect with an adapter ring to match your lens. Please verify the thread sizes before purchase. The thread size is marked on the front or side of your lens, next to a "ø" (diameter) symbol

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I adjust the intensity of the spiral halo effect?
Rotate the filter 360 degrees on your lens to shift the halo from a tight, concentrated spiral to a wider, more expansive blur pattern.
Will this filter reduce image sharpness in the center of the frame?
No. The center of the image remains clear and sharp while the spiral halo effect applies to the surrounding area, thanks to the K9 optical glass construction.
Can I use this filter on a lens with a different thread size?
The filter is designed for 77mm lens threads, but you can use a step-up adapter ring to mount it on lenses with smaller thread sizes.
Is this filter safe to use when shooting toward bright light sources?
Neewer advises against shooting directly into bright light or the sun, as concentrated light passing through the prism could damage your camera's CMOS sensor or lens iris.
What is included in the package?
The package contains one 77mm spiral halo prism filter, one cleaning cloth, and one filter storage pouch.
