NiSi Filter Swift System UV IR Cut 77mm – Cuts UV below 390nm and IR above 700nm
The NiSi Filter Swift System UV IR Cut 77mm removes unwanted ultraviolet and infrared light outside the visible spectrum. It is designed for use with the NiSi Swift System and for cameras that do not have an IR filter installed in front of the sensor.
Key features
- Cuts UV rays below 390nm and IR rays above 700nm.
- Retains the visible light spectrum.
- Can be added onto the NiSi True Color VND 1-5 stops filter.
- Works with NiSi Swift Filtersystem combinations.
- Finished with nano coating that is waterproof and antireflective.
- Available in 77 mm and 82 mm sizes; this listing is for the 77 mm version.
Compatibility and use cases
Use this UV IR Cut filter when you mount NiSi Swift System filters on cameras that lack a built-in IR filter in front of the sensor. For example, it is intended for cameras such as RED and BMPCC that do not have an IR filter installed. When you pair it with ND filters, it helps make color balance better on those cameras.
How to integrate with NiSi filters
You can add the UV IR Cut filter on top of the NiSi True Color VND 1-5 stops filter. Also, use it within NiSi Swift Filtersystem combinations to maintain correct color balance while retaining visible light for accurate images.
Coating and surface treatment
The filter features a nano coating. As a result, it provides waterproof properties and reduces reflections through an antireflective coating. These coatings support practical handling and use when combined with other NiSi filters.
