Great for landscape photography and videography. GOBE 1PEAK | Premium Japanese optical glass with 8-layer nano-coating provides neutral colour balance, reduces lens flare, and removes ghosting. Backed by our lifetime warranty. CONTROL UNPREDICTABLE LIGHT | Variable light reduction eliminates washed-out images and allows long exposure and motion blur techniques in variable light – use slow shutter speeds and wide-open apertures without overexposing your images. CONSIDERATIONS | This Variable ND filter is not recommended for use with wide-angle and telephoto lenses. Please note: Do not rotate past the MAX marking on the rim to avoid unwanted effects. You need to use a larger lens cap or hood with this filter.
