NiSi JetMag Pro 82MAG True Color CPL Magnetic Filter

Name: NiSi JetMag Pro 82MAG True Color CPL Magnetic Filter
Brand: NiSi
SKU: JetMag Pro 82MAG

Overview

The NiSi JetMag Pro 82MAG True Color CPL is built for photographers who spend significant time shooting in environments where reflections and polarization control make or break an image — glassy water surfaces, wet rocks, foliage-heavy forest scenes, or architecture with reflective glass facades. Where a standard CPL darkens skies and kills reflections but hands you a warm, yellow-shifted file to sort out in Lightroom, the JetMag Pro's True Colors film intercepts that color shift at the glass. The result is a polarized image that holds accurate neutrals and saturated-but-honest color, reducing the post-processing overhead that accumulates across a long shooting day.

Build quality is what you'd expect from NiSi at this tier — premium optical glass, a slim anodized aluminum frame that won't vignette at 82mm, and a nano waterproof coating that genuinely sheds water and oil rather than smearing it. The magnetic system is fast, but the twist-lock mechanism is what makes it field-worthy: a firm, deliberate lock that won't rattle loose when you're moving between shots or stacking filters. The single-rotation polarizer design means you're turning the outer ring to dial in polarization, not re-seating the whole filter — a small but meaningful ergonomic detail during a long landscape or travel shoot.

Key Features

JETMAG SYSTEM COMPATIBLE: This 82MAG CPL filter is designed exclusively for the JetMag Pro magnetic filter system and requires an 82MAG magnetic adapter ring (separately sold) for attachment. It cannot be mounted directly to the camera lens. Featuring a magnetic design, it enables fast, tool-free installation for effortless filter swaps. Ideal for professionals, this circular polarizing filter ensures a secure and precise fit when used with the correct 82MAG filter adapter ring.

POLARIZING TECHNOLOGY: Experience the power of an advanced circular polarizer that effectively reduces reflections and glare from non-metallic surfaces. This high-quality CPL filter minimizes reflections from glass, water, and polished surfaces while enhancing contrast and deepening blue skies. The NiSi JetMag Pro CPL filter ensures vibrant colors with a single-rotation polarizer filter, providing precise control over light polarization for professional-level imagery.

TRUE COLOR ACCURACY: Unlike conventional polarizing filters, this magnetic lens filter features NiSi’s advanced True Colors technology, preventing color cast and yellow tints. Capture pure, natural tones with lifelike clarity using this innovative 82MAG circular polarizing filter. Ideal for landscapes, portraits, and urban scenes, this CPL filter enhances color depth and contrast, ensuring accurate, vivid hues for photographers demanding precision

PREMIUM QUALITY CONSTRUCTION: Built with premium optical glass and a nano waterproof coating, this NiSi JetMat Pro polarizer filter repels water, dust, and oil while reducing reflections for superior image quality. Its frame aluminium construction ensures durability while maintaining a slim profile to prevent vignetting. Designed for harsh conditions, this magnetic lens filter is a reliable choice for outdoor and studio photography, delivering long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance.

SECURE & QUICK FILTER SWAPS: Designed for the NiSi JetMag Pro system, this CPL filter enables fast, tool-free filter changes with a strong magnetic attachment. The twist-lock mechanism provides extra security, preventing accidental detachment. To engage the lock, align the filter handles together when stacking or with the white line on the 82MAG filter adapter ring when mounting. This circular diffusion filter is ideal for fast-paced shoots, long exposures, and dynamic video production.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

Single-rotation polarizer gives precise, repeatable control over reflection reduction without fumbling for the polarization sweet spot mid-shoot.
True Colors film eliminates the warm color cast that forces correction on every polarized frame — landscapes and portraits come out neutral straight from camera.
Magnetic snap-on attachment with twist-lock lets you swap between CPL and ND in seconds without unscrewing anything, which matters during rapidly changing light.
Nano waterproof coating resists smearing from humid conditions, sea spray, and fingerprints — keeping glass cleaner longer during outdoor sessions.
Slim aluminum frame prevents vignetting at 82mm, even when stacking with additional JetMag Pro filters.

👎 Cons

Requires the 82MAG adapter ring as a separate purchase — the total cost of entry into the JetMag Pro system is higher than a standalone screw-on CPL of similar quality.
Designed exclusively for the JetMag Pro ecosystem, so it offers no value if you're not already committed to or building around that system.
The twist-lock alignment step adds a moment of friction during rapid filter swaps — not difficult, but requires a beat of attention to ensure proper engagement.
At 4.8 ounces, the filter plus adapter ring combination adds noticeable weight to the front of longer lenses during handheld shooting sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this filter screw directly onto my 82mm lens?

No — it requires the JetMag Pro 82MAG magnetic adapter ring, sold separately. The filter is designed exclusively for the JetMag Pro system and mounts via magnetic attachment to that adapter ring, not directly to your lens threads.

Will this CPL introduce a color cast into my images?

No. NiSi's True Colors film is the key differentiator here — it prevents the warm yellow tint common to many polarizers, so skies stay neutral and foliage reads accurately without correction in post.

How do I lock the filter so it doesn't separate during a shoot?

The twist-lock mechanism secures it. Align the filter handles together (when stacking) or with the white line on the 82MAG adapter ring (when mounting solo), then rotate to lock. It won't accidentally detach in the field.

Can I stack this CPL with ND filters in the JetMag Pro system?

Yes. The JetMag Pro system is designed for filter stacking. When stacking, align the handles before engaging the twist-lock. The slim aluminum frame minimizes vignetting even when layered with other JetMag Pro filters.

How does the nano coating affect long-term maintenance in the field?

The waterproof nano coating causes water, dust, and oil to bead off rather than bond to the glass. Field cleaning is faster and less abrasive — a light wipe removes most contamination without needing heavy pressure that risks micro-scratching.
