Overview

The Neewer NW Series S 67mm Soft Graduated ND8 filter is a screw-on lens filter designed to balance exposure between a bright sky and a darker foreground in a single shot. Its 3-stop (0.9 density) graduated tint transitions smoothly from dark at the top to fully clear at the bottom, making it especially useful for landscape scenes where the horizon is irregular — think mountain ridgelines, scattered trees, or cityscapes. Unlike a hard-edge GND, the soft gradient avoids a visible line across your image, giving you more flexibility in composition.

Build quality is notable for the price range. The filter features a CNC-machined aluminum alloy frame that keeps the profile ultra-slim to reduce vignetting, and the glass is treated with 32 layers of nano coating for water repellency, scratch resistance, and anti-reflectivity. This coating helps maintain image clarity and makes cleaning in the field straightforward. The 67mm threading fits standard lenses of that diameter and is also compatible with Neewer phone cages for mobile photography. While the fixed screw-on design is simpler to use than a square filter holder system, it does mean the gradient position is set relative to the center of the frame and cannot be adjusted up or down.

Key Features

【Soft GND8 Filter for Cinematic Sky Shots】3 Stop (0.9) Soft Graduated Neutral Density Filter (GND8) is designed to achieve a balanced overall image exposure. By reducing the contrast between highlights and shadow areas, it allows you to balance the exposure and the light proportion between the sky and the ground for cinematic sky shots

【Reduce Light & Reflection】The GND8 filter can also reduce the amount of light entering your camera sensor by 3 stops to slower the shutter speed for long exposure shots and motion blur, well suited for landscape photography, such as shooting running water

【HD Optical Glass with Multiple Resistant Nano Coatings】 With high quality HD optical glass and 30 layers of nano coatings on the both side of the filter, the reflectivity can reach less than 1.5% to reduce flare and ghosting. Protect the filter from water, oil, dust, and scratches

【Ultra Slim Aluminum Alloy Frame】 Made of CNC machined aluminum alloy, the ultra slim frame largely eliminates vignetting and dark corners when mounted on a wide angle lens. The durable filter is lightweight and won’t add noticeable weight when mounted on your camera lens

【Choose the Right Filter Size】This series of this GND filters set comes in different sizes. The 67mm filter can only work with 67mm camera lens. Please make sure that your camera lens filter thread and the 67mm filter set match (confirm the "Φ67" symbol on your lens) Compatible with Neewer iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max cage，also compatible with Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and S22 cage.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

Soft gradient transition blends naturally across uneven horizon lines
32-layer nano coating resists water, scratches, and reflections
Ultra-slim frame reduces the risk of vignetting on standard focal lengths
3-stop density is versatile enough for most landscape lighting conditions
CNC-machined aluminum alloy frame provides durable, precise threading

👎 Cons

Fixed 3-stop density means you cannot adjust the strength for extremely bright or subtle sky differences
The gradient position is fixed on the filter and cannot be repositioned like a square filter system
67mm thread size limits use to lenses with that specific filter diameter unless you use step-up rings
Soft graduation may not darken the sky enough when shooting scenes with a perfectly flat horizon

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a soft graduated ND filter do differently than a hard graduated ND?

A soft GND filter transitions gradually from dark to clear, creating a smooth blending zone. This makes it more forgiving with uneven horizons like mountain ranges or treelines, compared to a hard GND's abrupt transition line.

How many stops of light reduction does this filter provide?

It provides 3 stops (0.9 density) of light reduction on the darkened half, which is enough to tame a bright sky without underexposing the foreground.

Will this filter cause vignetting on wide-angle lenses?

The ultra-slim frame design is intended to minimize vignetting, but extremely wide focal lengths below roughly 24mm equivalent may still show slight corner darkening depending on the lens.

Can this filter be stacked with other 67mm filters?

Yes, the CNC-machined aluminum frame has standard threading that allows stacking, though stacking multiple filters increases the chance of vignetting on wider lenses.

Is the nano coating effective at repelling water and fingerprints?

The 32-layer nano coating is designed to be water-repellent and scratch-resistant, making it easier to clean water droplets and smudges in the field.
