NiSi Filter IRND1000 Pro Nano Huc 55mm

NiSi Filter IRND1000 Pro Nano Huc 55mm – 10-Stop Neutral Density with IR Protection

The NiSi IRND1000 Pro Nano Huc 55mm is a 10-stop neutral density filter designed to reduce incoming light uniformly. It uses high-quality optical glass with a nano coating to preserve image detail, and an additional infrared (IR) protection coating to help restore natural color by reducing infrared contamination.

Clear light control for long exposures and wide apertures

This ND filter provides a Neutral Density 3.0 rating, which corresponds to a 10-stop reduction in exposure. By cutting the amount of light entering the lens, it lets you use slower shutter speeds or wider apertures in bright conditions. As a result, you can create motion blur effects, smooth water, or isolate subjects with shallow depth of field while maintaining correct exposure.

Optical quality and coatings

The filter is manufactured from high-quality optical glass. In addition, NiSi applies a nano coating to the glass surface to help prevent loss of fine image detail. The IR coating reduces the amount of infrared light that reaches the sensor, which helps bring back a more natural color balance when shooting with long exposures or in conditions where IR contamination could occur.

Ultra-thin brass frame to minimise vignetting

NiSi builds the filter frame in brass with a thickness of only 3.5mm. This ultra-thin construction suits wide-angle lenses because it reduces the risk of vignetting. The frame also features a matt black superfine frosted finish to minimise reflections, and a top smooth finish on the surface for handling and mounting.

Features

• Ultra Thin frame (3,5mm) made in Brass
• Matt Black Superfine Frosted Frame.
• 10 Stops Exposure, No color Cast
• Top Smooth Finish on the Surface
• Neutral Density 3.0 (exposure adjustment = 10 stops, transmits 0.1% of light)
• IR Coating to reduce color cast
• Nano Coating

How it helps in practical shooting situations

When highlights and shadows contrast too strongly, attaching this ND filter uniformly reduces the light entering the lens so you can achieve a balanced exposure without altering image coloration. Furthermore, it enables creative techniques: use slow shutter speeds to capture motion blur, or open your aperture for shallow depth of field even in bright daylight.

FAQ

Question: Will this ND filter change my image colors?

Answer: Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image by design. In this product, the ND3.0 density provides a 10-stop reduction while the IR coating helps reduce infrared-induced color casts to maintain more natural colors.

Question: Will the filter fit wide-angle lenses without vignetting?

Answer: Yes. The filter uses an ultra-thin brass frame with a 3.5mm thickness specifically to minimise vignetting on super wide-angle lenses.

Question: What coatings are applied to the glass?

Answer: The glass receives a nano coating to preserve detail and an infrared protection coating to reduce infrared light entering the lens, helping to maintain natural color in challenging lighting conditions.

Question: How much light does the filter block?

Answer: The ND1000 is a Neutral Density 3.0 filter that reduces exposure by 10 stops and transmits approximately 0.1% of the incoming light, allowing for long exposures or wider apertures in bright conditions.
