This 2 to 5-stop, 72mm Freewell Standard Day Variable ND Filter is designed to mount onto lenses with 72mm front filter threads and provides an exposure reduction of 2 to 5-stops. Its 0.6 to 1.5 density creates a darkening of the entire image, allowing you to photograph with a wider aperture or slower shutter speed than normally possible. The degree of density is easily controlled by rotating the front filter ring, helping you to predetermine the additional exposure length required. By slowing your exposure time or increasing your aperture, you are able to control depth of field or add motion blur. For easier, repeatable control over density settings, the front ring is visually demarcated with numbers representing the different stop values and features side knurlings to further enable fast and precise positioning.

This filter is constructed from Schott B270 glass for enhanced clarity and color fidelity. Each glass surface is multi-coated to help eliminate internal ghosting and reflections. The Freewell 72mm Standard Day Variable Neutral Density 0.6 to 1.5 Filter is also coated for resistance to oil, dust, and scratches, offering greater protection to the filter and helping it to stay clean for longer than with uncoated filters. The coatings are hydrophobic as well, resulting in an improved beading effect when in contact with water for greater cleaning efficiency.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does this have hard stops?

A: Yes it does.

Q: 2. May i know what is the full diameter of the filter for 67mm, 72mm, 77mm, and 82mm?

A: Sorry I can't measure precisely but the system is no larger than standard filters. The diameter is about 2mm larger than the thread size and flush with the lens barrel. The magnetic system is built in to the rim of the filters so it does not take additional space.

Q: 3. What is the weight in grams of the filter itself (without magnetic lens cover)?

A: The Freewell 82mm All-day Variable ND filter weighs 71 g without the lens cap.

Q: 4. Does the kit come with a magnetic base ring 82mm?

A: No, the Freewell All-Day VND 2-5 and 6-9 stop 2-filter kit does not come with a magnetic filter ring.

Q: 5. If I buy a 95 mm filter, will it work with a 58mm and 72 mm lens if I use Step up rings?

A: Yes, if you buy a 95 mm filter, it will work with a 58 and 72 mm lens if you use step up rings but remember that with the step up rings you can't attach the lens hood.

Q: 6. What about vignetting with a sony gm 16-35mm lens ?

A: The 16-35mm GM already has a slight vignette at 16mm if you shoot RAW with profile corrections in-camera turned off. If you enable it, the vignette would be removed. Alternatively Lightroom/Capture One automatically removes it with the profile corrections it has. The filter itself is very well made and will not cause a vignette.

Q: 7. Are these stackable?

A: According to Freewell it is not recommended to stack these as it and cause vignetting. Technically speaking it is possible, not recommended.

Q: 8. Does this have a front thread?

A: Yes this filter has a front thread.

Q: 9. I need this filter but with mist 1/8...

A: Here is the link to the same filter but with a 1/8 mist: https://bhpho.to/39elov0

Q: 10. can you attach another filter like a blackpro mist or moment cinebloom?

A: Theses filters do not have front threads, if the other filter you are using has front threads, then you can stack these on top.
