This NiSi Square Nano IRND 150x150mm ND32 filter reduces light by 5 stops to allow longer exposures and greater creative control. It uses high-definition optical glass and double-sided nano coating to preserve detail while offering infrared (IR) protection that helps maintain true-to-life color.
NiSi designed this square ND filter with landscape photographers in mind. By reducing incoming light, the filter lets you use slower shutter speeds or wider apertures for motion blur and depth-of-field effects. Furthermore, the IR protection layer helps prevent the unwanted red cast that can appear at small apertures when the camera becomes vulnerable to infrared light.
First, the optical-grade glass and nano coatings preserve image clarity and minimize reflections. Next, the IR technology directly addresses the infrared light issue that can alter colors at small apertures. Finally, the water- and oil-repellent nano layers make cleaning easier in the field.
NiSi offers these square Nano IR ND filters in multiple densities to match different creative needs. The available aperture steps are:

Question: What does ND32 (5 stops) mean for my exposures?
Answer: ND32 reduces incoming light by 5 stops, allowing longer shutter speeds or wider apertures for motion blur, smoother water, or shallower depth of field in bright conditions.
Question: Will this filter change the color of my images?
Answer: Neutral density filters aim not to affect coloration. This NiSi Nano IRND includes an IR protection layer to counteract infrared-induced red casts, helping preserve natural colors, especially at small apertures.
Question: Is the filter durable and easy to maintain in the field?
Answer: Yes. The filter is made from high-definition optical glass (not resin) and features double-sided nano coatings that repel water and oil, making it easier to clean and maintain in outdoor conditions.
Question: Which photographers will benefit most from this filter?
Answer: Landscape photographers and anyone who needs longer exposures in bright light will benefit, since the filter enables creative exposure control while protecting color fidelity with IR coating.
