This 95mm Tokina PRO IRND Filter is an ND filter with a 16x filter factor that provides a 4-stop exposure reduction. Its 1.2 density creates a darkening of the entire image, allowing you to photograph with a wider aperture or slower shutter speed without overexposing your image. By slowing your exposure time or increasing your aperture, you are able to control depth of field and convey movement more easily. Neutral density filters are intended to not affect the coloration of the image and are ideal for pairing with other filters.

The design of this filter has been optimized for use with digital sensors and to promote nearly flat attenuation of visible and infrared light. Due to imaging sensors' greater susceptibility to infrared light, compared to traditional film, color casts can occur when photographing darker subjects that require increased exposure times. To provide a high level of neutrality across the visible and infrared spectrums in order to eliminate color casts and ensure cleaner, truer blacks, each glass surface includes one layer of ACCU-ND Vapor Deposition coating.

This Tokina 95mm PRO IRND 1.2 Filter is constructed from optical glass for clarity as well as color fidelity and features an aluminum-alloy filter ring.

1.2 neutral density filter darkens the image, allowing you to photograph with a longer shutter speed or wider aperture than normally required.

Providing a 4 stop exposure reduction, this filter allows you to control depth of field and convey movement more easily.

Filter does not affect coloration of the image and is ideal for use with other filters.

Each glass surface includes one ACCU-ND Vapor Deposition coating to attenuate infrared light, as well as visible wavelengths, to maintain color neutrality and suppress color casts due to increased exposure times.

Constructed from optical glass for clarity.

95mm front filter threads allow for use with other filters.

Padded pouch included for storage and transport.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I have a mirrorless camera that I had converted for IR photography; regular ND filter do not have any effects on exposure; I want to shoot IR with long exposure, will this NiSi IRND do the job?

A: No, the NiSi 82mm PRO Nano IRND 3.0 Filter (10-Stop) would not be compatible for your usage needs. It does the opposite of what you are looking for; it is designed to block IR to the extent that there will not be infrared pollution when taking a long exposure. As an alternative, the filters in the NiSi Swift FS ND Filter Kit (82mm), B&H # NIRFSNDSWK82, are designed to pass all wavelengths of light evenly, so this would also be an alternative for your usage needs. Also, as standard neutral density filters pass along infrared light unless it specifically indicates it has IR reduction, a filter such as the Hoya ProND EX 1000 Filter (82mm, 10-Stop), B&H # HOPNDEX1T82, should also work for your usage needs. https://bhpho.to/3ieQ30o https://bhpho.to/3LZm8bn

Q: 2. Is the filter holder included?

A: No. Just the following is included. VFX Filter Alcantara leather bag

Q: 3. Can this filter be used for solar eclipse photos?

A: No, the NiSi 77mm PRO Nano IRND 3.0 Filter (10-Stop) would not provide enough coverage for solar eclipse photography. You need at least 16 stop ND, preferably with UV/IR cut. Nisi has the following option. https://bhpho.to/3vaPO0g

Q: 4. Can another filter be stacked on top of this?

A: Yes, Kolari Vision Pro IRND Filter (95mm, 2-Stop) has a 95mm front and back threads. You can connect filters or lens caps to the front threads.

Q: 5. Will my lens hood still fit on my lens with this filter?

A: Typically this is determined by the lens in question, but because the front and back are the same diameter, it shouldn't be an issue.

Q: 6. Would combining one of these with the Tilta Mirage's VND filter cause issues? I realize these are IRND and the VND is not, but I'm thinking I may sometimes need more than the 2.7 stops the VND offers.

A: Using the Vaxis VFX 95 IRND 1.5 Filter for Tilta Mirage Matte Box with another ND filter will increase internal reflections from the layers of glass, but it can be done.

Q: 7. How many stops is 1.5?

A: In ND measurements 1.5 is 5 stops of ND

Q: 8. How many stops is this?

A: The Vaxis 95 IRND 2.1 filter has an optical density rating of 2.1, which equates to a 7-stop reduction in f-stop reduction.

Q: 9. Will this fit a Lee Filter holder?

A: Yes.

Q: 10. Does the IR cut cause vignetting on wide angle lenses? I'd like to use this on the Tokina 11-20mm.

A: You may get some vignetting on the wide end.
