The 3-stop, 55mm Edge ND Filter from IRIX is an essential tool for landscape and long-exposure photography. This filter has an optical density of 0.9 and reduces incoming light by 3 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. Can 72mm XS-Pro Digital ND Vario MRC-Nano be able to fit Sony FE 16-35mm F4 ZA with XS-Pro UV or UV + Polarizer without Vignette?

A: If filter diameter on your lens is 72 mm there will be no vignett with any 72 mm filter. Vignetting only occurs if the lens does not match crop factor for camera.Hope this helps.

Q: 2. Does this filter have front threads so I can attach it to a matte box or an additional filter? Thanks!

A: Yes it does have a front thread of 77mm.

Q: 3. Can I use for my 85 mm?

A: No. It's the wrong size

Q: 4. I regard to the question about the front threads:Note that the specs supplied by B&H say that the mfg has not provided that info. Upon receiving this filter hoping I could add the the Nikon R1C1 flash system to it (the reason I bought this unit instead of others that had no front threads) I can tell you that the threads are well over 77MM wide. I should have figured that out when the description states the filter is oversized.

A: The front threads are approximately 81mm on the XS-Pro 77mm Digital ND Vario. While it will not be possible to use the R1-C1 mounted on this filter, the flashes on the R1-C1 separate off the ring and the system comes with stands. You could mount the flashes onto stands and ultimately a tripod and light the subject in this manner, and just use the system without having the flash on the camera.

Q: 5. I purchased this filter from you earlier this month. The filter ring is oversized . Can you recommend a lens cap that would work with this filter? Thank you. - Michael

A: The front filter thread size of the B+W 72mm XS-Pro Digital ND Vario MRC nano Filter is 77mm. As such, any 77mm lens cap should fit onto the filter.
