NiSi Filter IRND1000 Pro Nano Huc 72mm

NiSi Filter IRND1000 Pro Nano Huc 72mm – 10-Stop ND with IR Protection

The NiSi IRND1000 Pro Nano Huc 72mm is a neutral density filter that reduces light by 10 stops (ND3.0). It lets you use a large aperture or slow shutter speed to achieve greater motion blur and increased image detail, while maintaining natural color thanks to an infrared protection coating.

Key optical features

The filter uses high quality optical glass with a nano coating to preserve fine detail. In addition, the infrared (IR) protection layer helps eliminate infrared light that can cause unwanted color shifts. Together, these coatings aim to deliver strong light reduction without introducing color cast.

Design and build

NiSi designed the frame in brass and kept it ultra thin at 3.5mm. As a result, the filter fits well even on super wide-angle lenses and helps avoid vignetting. The frame has a matt black superfine frosted finish and a top smooth surface, giving it a refined, low-reflective appearance.

Why use this ND filter?

• Control exposure in bright conditions by uniformly reducing the amount of light entering the lens.
• Allow slower shutter speeds to capture motion blur in water, clouds, or moving subjects.
• Open the aperture wider for a shallower depth of field in bright light without overexposure.
• Improve overall exposure quality when highlight and shadow contrast is too great for a single setting.

Specifications

Typical use cases

Photographers and filmmakers choose this filter when they need controlled exposure without compromising color fidelity. Use it to capture long-exposure landscapes, create motion blur in moving water, or shoot with wide apertures in bright daylight. Furthermore, its thin brass frame minimizes the risk of vignetting on wide-angle lenses.

FAQ

Question: What does ND1000 / ND3.0 mean for exposure?

Answer: ND3.0 corresponds to a 10-stop exposure reduction. The filter transmits approximately 0.1% of incoming light, allowing much longer exposures or wider apertures in bright conditions.

Question: Will this filter change my image colors?

Answer: Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image by design. Additionally, this NiSi filter includes an IR coating to reduce infrared-induced color cast, helping to bring back natural color.

Question: Is the filter suitable for wide-angle lenses?

Answer: Yes. The frame is made of brass and measures only 3.5mm in thickness, which makes this ultra-thin filter fit well on super wide-angle lenses and helps avoid vignetting.

Question: What surface and coatings does the filter have?

Answer: The filter features high quality optical glass with a nano coating to preserve detail, an IR protection coating to reduce color cast, a matt black superfine frosted frame, and a top smooth surface finish.

Question: Which size is this specific model?

Answer: This model is the 72mm NiSi IRND1000 Pro Nano Huc filter.
