The 5-stop, 67mm Edge ND Filter from IRIX is an essential tool for landscape and long-exposure photography. This filter has an optical density of 1.5 and reduces incoming light by 5 stops, allowing more controlled motion blur and depth of field manipulation.

This optical glass filter features waterproof and oil-repellent nanocoating to prevent stains and fingerprints, allowing it to be used in extreme weather conditions. The low-profile frames and knurled edges provide excellent grip and functionality with a reduced potential for vignetting with wide-angle lenses.

Q: 1. Which filter should i purchase to fit my Sigma 50mm and Sirui 50mm?

A: The PolarPro 82mm Peter McKinnon Signature Edition II Variable ND 1.8 to 2.7 Filter (6 to 9-Stop), B&H # PO8269VNDED2, listed above would be compatible for use with the Sirui 50mm T2.9 Full Frame 1.6x Anamorphic Lens as it has 82mm front filter threads. As the Sirui 50mm f/1.8 Anamorphic 1.33x Lens uses smaller 67mm front filter threads, the PolarPro 67mm Peter McKinnon Signature Edition II Variable ND 1.8 to 2.7 Filter (6 to 9-Stop), B&H # PO6769VNDED2, would instead be compatible for use with the Sirui 50mm f/1.8 Anamorphic 1.33x Lens. As the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens has 77mm front filter threads, the PolarPro 77mm Peter McKinnon Signature Edition II Variable ND 1.8 to 2.7 Filter (6 to 9-Stop), B&H # PO7769VNDED2, would be the correct size filter for use on the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens.

Q: 2. What's the difference between this filter and the seemingly identical Edition I version, which is $50 cheaper right here at B&H?

A: The version II has haptic feedback, so each stop has a click to notify you when you've reached the desired stop without really looking. It comes in a much smaller, eco-friendly package, a newly designed defender case and the trim is a little bit more gold. Optically there really isn't a difference. I have the original 2-5 and the newer 6-9 and the image is identical. Different color shifts but it's almost non-existant. Hopefully this helps!

Q: 8. Is there a "minimum" spot on this filter that is light enough to focus through? Or are you trying to focus through the 6-stop ND?

A: The best way to focus with a strong ND filter like the PolarPro 82mm Peter McKinnon Signature Edition II Variable ND 1.8 to 2.7 Filter (6 to 9-Stop)is to use the live view feature if you are using a DSLR. The monitor will compensate for the filter and show a well exposed image on the LCD. Mirrorless cameras are always in live view mode so the image is visible due to the compensation. Alternatively you can remove the filter, compose and focus the shot, then attach the filter for the exposure.

Q: 9. 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: 10. Does this need to be combined with a uv/ir cut filter to do solar photography?
