Variable ND Filter

A neutral density (ND) filter reduces light to control exposure, and a variable ND (VND) filter simplifies this process by allowing you to adjust the light reduction with a simple twist. The ProMaster Basis VND filter offers light reduction from 2 to 8 f-stops and can be adjusted to any point between. In both photography and videography, limiting light is essential for creative control. For instance, in still photography, a VND filter enables slower shutter speeds to create motion blur, like blurring water to suggest movement. In videography, where shutter speed is often fixed, a VND filter allows the use of a large aperture for shallow depth of field in bright conditions while maintaining proper exposure. Additionally, all ProMaster Basis filters feature the same filter thread on both sides, ensuring compatibility with lens caps and other filters. These filters are not only optically excellent but also affordable, offering outstanding value for photographers and videographers alike.

Kevin K. ★★★★★

I was worried about color shifting with a VND, but this one stays neutral even at the stronger 8-stop setting. Twisting the ring to dial in exposure is smooth and precise, which made my outdoor cityscape shots so much easier.

Amelia ★★★★★

I shoot a lot of outdoor portraits and this VND lets me dial in the perfect exposure without swapping filters. At 8 stops I can shoot wide open even in bright midday sun, and I haven't noticed any color cast so far. Just what I needed for smooth video work too.

Sophia ★★★★★

The twist ring moves smoothly through the whole 2 to 8 stop range, so I can dial in exposure mid-shot without lifting the camera off the tripod. It’s made my outdoor video work way less stressful.
