Overview

The Neewer NW Series S 58mm Variable ND Filter gives photographers and videographers smooth, stepless control over light entering the lens, ranging from ND2 (1 stop) to ND32 (5 stops). This range is well suited for outdoor shooting where you want to use wider apertures or slower shutter speeds — whether capturing silky water motion, controlled-depth portraits in bright light, or cinematic video with proper motion blur. The filter uses premium Japanese AGC optical glass with 30 layers of double-sided nano coatings that minimize reflectivity to just 0.1%, significantly cutting down on lens flare and ghosting while also repelling moisture, oil, and fingerprints.

The build quality is a standout at this price tier. The aircraft-grade aluminum frame is CNC machined for precise threading, and at just 7.4mm thick (excluding thread), it maintains a slim enough profile to avoid vignetting on most lenses. Markers engraved on the rotating ring let you set specific ND values with confidence rather than guessing. The filter also doubles as everyday lens protection against scratches and dust. Neewer includes a hard plastic carrying case and a microfiber cleaning cloth, so the filter stays protected when not in use.

Key Features

【Variable ND2-ND32 Camera Lens Filters】 This 58mm variable camera lens filter features 5 stops of exposure brightness, from ND2, ND4, ND8, ND16 to ND32 (the numbers represent how much light enters the lens in terms of a fraction). Use this filter to gain more control over exposure and shutter speed when shooting rivers, waterfalls, light trails, etc

【No X cross dark spot】 With markers on the frame, rotate the filter to accurately adjust ND stop with ease. When mounted on wide angle lens, no need to worry about X cross dark spot. A 62mm lens cap is required to fit on the 58mm filter

【Multi Layer Nano Coated HD Optical Glass】 Made of premium Japanese AGC optical glass, the high definition ND filter delivers cinematic photo look without distorting image quality. The 30 layers of double sided Nano coatings, with 0.1% minimum light reflectivity, reduce flare and ghosting while protecting the filter against moisture, oil, dust, and scratches

【Professional Build】 The aircraft grade aluminum frame makes the filter lightweight. 0.37"/9.5mm thick (including thread, 0.29"/7.4mm thick excluding thread), this ultra slim filter helps avoid vignetting. Finished in black matte and CNC precisely machined, it is durable and has zero chance of being jammed on lens

【About its Compatibility】 This 58mm ND filter can only fit 58mm camera lens. Please confirm the filter thread size marked on your camera with the "Ф" (diameter) symbol before ordering. When mounted on camera, the ND filter also protects your camera lens from scratches. Protective case and cleaning cloth also included

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

30-layer nano coating on both sides significantly reduces flare and ghosting artifacts
Ultra-slim 7.4mm profile helps prevent vignetting on most lenses
Aircraft-grade aluminum frame is lightweight yet resistant to cross-threading or jamming
Includes a protective carrying case and cleaning cloth in the box
Japanese AGC optical glass maintains image sharpness across the full ND range

👎 Cons

Limited to ND2-ND32, so it cannot achieve the heavy 6-10 stop reduction needed for very long daytime exposures
Requires purchasing a separate 62mm lens cap since it does not fit standard 58mm caps when mounted
Only available in 58mm thread size, so other lens sizes require a different purchase or step-up rings
Variable ND filters inherently introduce slight color shifts at the extremes of their range

Frequently Asked Questions

What ND range does this Neewer variable filter cover?

It adjusts from ND2 through ND32, providing 1 to 5 stops of light reduction that you control by rotating the filter ring.

Will this filter cause an X-pattern dark spot on wide-angle lenses?

No, the filter is designed to avoid the X-cross dark spot artifact even when used on wide-angle lenses.

What size lens cap do I need when this filter is mounted?

You will need a 62mm lens cap to fit over the 58mm filter, since the front ring is slightly larger than the thread size.

Does the filter have markings to show which ND stop is selected?

Yes, there are markers on the frame that indicate the ND level as you rotate, so you can set your desired stop accurately.

What coatings are applied to this filter?

The filter has 30 layers of double-sided nano coatings with a minimum 0.1% light reflectivity, designed to reduce flare and ghosting and resist moisture, oil, dust, and scratches.
