The 77mm ND16 QuartzLine Solid Neutral Density 1.2 and Circular Polarizer Filter from PolarPro is a filter that combines a solid neutral density effect with a circular polarizer effect. When in use, this filter's 16x filter factor provides a 4-stop exposure reduction. Its 1.2 density creates a darkening of the entire image, allowing you to photograph with a wider aperture or slower shutter speed than normally required. By slowing your exposure time or increasing your aperture, you are able to control depth of field and convey movement more easily.
FEATURES
- 1.2 neutral density filter effect darkens the image, allowing you to photograph with a longer shutter speed or wider aperture than normally required
- Providing a 16x filter factor with a 4-stop exposure reduction, this filter allows you to control depth of field and convey movement more easily
- Polarizing filter effect arranges and filters directionally polarized light perpendicularly to the reflected light, allowing for the absorption of much of the light
- Helps to reduce reflections and glare by filtering out light that has become polarized due to reflection from a non-metallic surface
- Clears up haze in distant landscapes and provides more saturated, vivid colors
- Strongest polarization effect when used at a 90° angle from the sun
- Circular polarizer effect is ideal for use with digital cameras and autofocus lenses, where a linear polarizer will often disrupt auto exposure and focus features
- Constructed from quartz glass for enhanced durability
- Multi-coated to prevent internal ghosting and reflections while promoting clarity as well as color fidelity
- Brass filter ring helps to prevent jamming and provides additional strength
- Filter ring can be rotated to adjust the intensity of the polarization effect
- 77mm front filter threads allow for use with other filters
- Side knurlings provide a textured grip when mounting or removing from a lens
- Plastic filter case for storage and transport
- Microfiber cloth for cleaning and maintenance
