NiSi Filter IRND1000 Pro Nano Huc 62mm

NiSi Filter IRND1000 Pro Nano Huc 62mm – 10 Stops Neutral Density with IR Protection

The NiSi Nano IR Neutral Density Filter ND1000 (62mm) reduces light intake by 10 stops while preserving natural color. It uses high quality optical glass with a nano coating and an added infrared protection layer. As a result, you can use wider apertures or slower shutter speeds without introducing color cast from infrared light.

Key benefits

This ND1000 filter uniformly reduces the amount of light entering your lens, enabling motion blur and expanded creative control. It helps when the contrast between highlights and shadows is too great to obtain a balanced exposure. In addition, the IR coating reduces infrared contamination so the filter maintains more natural color rendition in your images.

Design and build

The filter frame is ultra-thin and made from brass, measuring only 3.5mm in thickness. Because of its slim profile, the filter fits well on wide-angle lenses and helps to avoid vignetting. The frame features a matt black superfine frosted finish and a top smooth finish on the surface for reduced reflections and a refined appearance.

Optical properties

The optical glass used in this filter carries a nano coating to protect image detail and reduce surface reflections. The ND density is 3.0, which corresponds to a 10-stop reduction in exposure and transmits approximately 0.1% of incoming light. Neutral density behavior ensures the filter does not affect image coloration significantly, and the IR coating further reduces color cast caused by infrared light.

Technical specifications

How and when to use this filter

Use the ND1000 when you need long exposures in bright conditions, for example to capture motion blur in water or clouds while keeping a wide aperture. Likewise, apply it when the scene has a high dynamic range and you need to control exposure without shifting color balance. The IR coating helps return natural colors when infrared light would otherwise cause a warm or magenta cast.

FAQ

Question: What does the ND1000 do to exposure?

Answer: The ND1000 provides a 10-stop reduction in light (density 3.0), which lets you use much slower shutter speeds or wider apertures in bright conditions while maintaining proper exposure.

Question: Will this filter change my image colors?

Answer: The filter is neutral density, so it is designed not to affect coloration. Additionally, it includes an IR coating that reduces infrared-induced color cast, helping to maintain more natural colors.

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

Answer: Yes. The frame is ultra-thin (3.5mm) and made of brass, which helps minimize vignetting on wide-angle lenses and ensures a secure fit.

Question: What coatings protect the glass?

Answer: The optical glass uses a nano coating to protect detail and reduce reflections, and it also features an infrared (IR) protection coating to reduce IR contamination that can affect color.

Question: Which size is this product?

Answer: This specific model is the 62mm version of the NiSi Nano IR Neutral Density Filter ND1000.
