NiSi Cine Filter Nano IR GND Soft 4x4"""" 0.9

NiSi Cine Filter Nano IR GND Soft 4x4" 0.9 – Soft-edge graduated ND that controls visible and infrared light

The NiSi Nano Soft-Edge Graduated IRND filter darkens bright areas of a scene, such as skies, while keeping the rest of the frame at a normal exposure. It delivers a soft-edged transition between the dense and clear areas, making it useful for scenes where you need a gradual change in light rather than a hard line.

Optimized for digital sensors and color neutrality

NiSi designed this filter specifically for use with digital sensors. The construction promotes nearly flat attenuation across both visible and infrared wavelengths. Each surface receives one layer of NiSi Optical Nano Coating to attenuate infrared light as well as visible light. This helps maintain color neutrality and reduce color casts that can appear during longer exposures.

Optical clarity and durability

The filter is constructed from optical glass to preserve clarity and color fidelity. Its surfaces include coatings that provide scratch resistance and make the filter easy to clean. These characteristics support reliable performance in the field and straightforward maintenance.

How it works and when to use it

• The graduated neutral density design darkens bright areas of an image while leaving other regions unaffected.
• Its soft-edged line of transition provides a subtle, natural falloff that is suitable for uneven horizons or scenes with gradual tonal changes.
• Because the filter does not affect coloration of the image, it is ideal for use together with other filters when you need to combine effects.

Included with the filter

• Leatherette pouch for storage and transport.

FAQ

question: Will this filter change the colors in my images?
Answer: Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image. Additionally, this NiSi filter includes one layer of NiSi Optical Nano Coating on each surface to attenuate both infrared and visible wavelengths, which helps maintain color neutrality and reduce color casts.

question: What kind of scenes benefit from a soft-edge graduated filter?
Answer: Use this soft-edge GND when you need to darken bright areas such as skies while preserving normal exposure in other parts of the frame. The soft-edged transition works well for horizons or subjects where a gradual tonal shift is more appropriate than a hard line.

question: Is this filter suitable for digital camera use?
Answer: Yes. The filter’s design has been optimized for use with digital sensors to promote nearly flat attenuation of visible and infrared light, supporting cleaner and truer blacks during exposure.

question: What does the package include and how durable is the filter?
Answer: The package includes the 4x4" 0.9 NiSi Nano Soft-Edge Graduated IRND filter and a leatherette pouch for storage and transport. The filter is constructed from optical glass, features scratch resistance, and is described as easy to clean.
