NiSi 111785 ND8 100x100mm IR ND Filter

The NiSi ND8 100x100mm Explorer Collection IR ND Filter is built for landscape and long-exposure photographers who demand optical precision without compromise. Its 0.9 density provides a 3-stop reduction in light transmission, allowing you to slow shutter speeds enough to blur moving water, streaking clouds, or bustling crowds while maintaining a correctly exposed image. The infrared coating is a critical feature — many ND filters allow IR light to pass through, which creates an unwanted reddish or magenta color shift especially visible in foliage and long exposures. NiSi's IR treatment blocks this contamination, delivering consistently neutral and true-to-life color across the frame.

Constructed from hardened optical glass with nano coating, this filter is engineered for photographers who work in demanding outdoor environments. The hardened glass is significantly more resistant to impact and scratching than standard optical glass or resin alternatives, and the nano coating helps repel water, dust, and fingerprints for easier maintenance in the field. At 100x100mm with a 2mm thickness, it slots into the NiSi 100mm holder system as well as any compatible third-party system, giving photographers flexibility in their filter setup. Whether you are shooting seascapes at golden hour or smoothing a waterfall in midday light, this filter provides a reliable and optically clean 3-stop reduction without the post-processing headaches that cheaper alternatives often introduce.
