The NiSi 112mm Circular NC ND64 (6 Stop) is a neutral density filter made for Nikon Z lenses. It reduces incoming light by six stops and fits the screw-in design of the HB-97 lens hood supplied with the Nikon Z 14-24mm f/2.8S.
This ND64 filter darkens the entire image uniformly, letting you use wider apertures or slower shutter speeds than you could without the filter. As a result, you gain direct control over depth of field and motion rendering.
Consequently, you can convey movement—such as silky water or drifting clouds—by slowing exposure times. Conversely, you can open the aperture for a shallower depth of field in bright conditions without overexposure.
Photographers and filmmakers commonly use this 6-stop filter during golden hour to create long exposures of one to two minutes for smooth water or cloud movement. In addition, a 6-stop reduction works well before golden hour to capture dynamic water while still retaining some surface texture.
The NiSi 112mm Circular NC ND64 uses high-quality optical glass and a nano coating to preserve fine detail. The neutral density element does not change color balance, and the 1.8 optical density is specified to provide the six-stop reduction.
Also, the filter includes an added infrared protection coating. This coating helps prevent unwanted red color cast that can appear when the camera is exposed to infrared light at small apertures.
NiSi builds this filter with an ultra-thin profile and a double-sided, multi-coating lens technology to maximize optical clarity. The frame is constructed from brass using highly accurate brass milling for reliable threading and durability.
Additionally, the filter features an exclusive “U” type anti-reflective Nano coating plus a hardened waterproof coating applied to both sides to aid cleaning and resist moisture.

Question: Will this filter fit my Nikon Z 14-24mm f/2.8S?
Answer: Yes. The NiSi 112mm Circular ND64 is designed to work with the screw-in design of the HB-97 lens hood that comes standard with the Nikon Z 14-24mm f/2.8S.
Question: Does the ND64 change my image color?
Answer: No. This neutral density filter is designed not to affect image coloration. It uses optical-grade glass and nano coatings to maintain true-to-life color while reducing light by six stops.
Question: When should I use a 6-stop ND filter like this?
Answer: Use it when you want longer exposures or wider apertures in bright conditions. For example, during golden hour you can produce 1–2 minute exposures for smooth water and clouds. You can also use it before golden hour to capture flowing water with retained texture.
Question: How does the filter handle infrared light and reflections?
Answer: The filter includes an infrared protection coating to reduce unwanted red cast at small apertures. It also has a “U” type anti-reflective Nano coating to minimize reflections and preserve detail.
