[Product Description]
■ The SMC-PRO ND4× reduces light by a quarter without affecting color.
■ Adjusts the amount of light passing through the lens to prevent overexposure and allows capturing waterfalls and streams beautifully, like silk threads.
■ Achieves highly precise light reduction and low reflection on the glass surface comparable to multi-coating through advanced vacuum deposition. Also prevents image quality deterioration caused by over-iris when there is a lot of light.
■ The lens side features super multi-coating similar to high-performance protective filters, reducing flare that can occur between the lens and filter when using ND.
■ Uses a slim filter frame designed to minimize vignetting when used with wide-angle lenses.
■ HAKUBA lens filters are reliably produced in Japan.
■ Despite its low price, it offers high performance comparable to higher-end models, providing excellent cost performance.
* Since it is a reduction filter, it is not suitable for low-light environments such as indoors.
* The slim type filter is designed to be less prone to vignetting even with wide-angle lenses (which can occur when a thick filter frame is reflected).
* Please check in advance that your camera lens has a filter screw and confirm the filter diameter.
High-performance lens protection filter "SMC-PRO Lens Guard" with an Amazon-exclusive ND filter has been released. This is the first ND filter from our line to feature super multi-coating on the lens side.
It adjusts the amount of light passing through the lens without affecting color tone, enabling slow shutter or bokeh effects even on sunny days.
The vacuum deposition technology used ensures the spectral transmittance of visible light is flat, similar to multi-coating.
The lens side is coated with low-reflection coating similar to high-performance protective filters, reducing flare that can occur between the lens and filter when using ND.
Exposure multiplier: 4x, Aperture step: +2 stops, Glass reflection rate: Low reflection 1.5%
Photo filter attachment type: Round
