Key features

• Superior light management: The FS ND filter reduces light entering the lens by precise stops. As a result, you can use slower shutter speeds and larger apertures to create cinematic motion blur or to control depth of field in bright environments.

• Custom-fit for ATHENA PL lenses: This is a rear-mounted filter tailored specifically for NiSi ATHENA PL Mount lenses to ensure correct alignment and consistent image quality.
• Included suction cap tool: The filter comes with a suction cap tool that enables quick and safe changes directly on the lens, reducing the chance of fingerprints on the glass.
• Built to last: Constructed from premium optical materials, the filter features a Multi Ti Nano coating that offers low reflection and anti-scratch resistance for dependable professional use.

How it helps filmmakers

The FS ND filter gives you reliable control over exposure and creative settings. For example, you can slow the shutter to capture natural motion blur in moving subjects. Alternatively, you can open the aperture wider to achieve a shallower depth of field without overexposing the image. Because the filter is full spectrum and minimizes color shift, you can preserve the true look of your scenes and spend less time correcting color in post-production.

Compatibility and handling

Designed specifically as a rear PL-mounted filter, this NiSi FS ND fits ATHENA PL Mount lenses. The included suction cap tool allows safe and fast installation or removal while the lens remains mounted, helping you keep the optics clean and free from fingerprints.
