K&F Concept Nano-X 2-in-1 CPL + ND2-ND32 77mm Polarizing Filter

K&F Concept Nano-X 2-in-1 hybrid filter, combining the functions of an adjustable gray fader filter and a polarizing filter (CPL) - two of the most popular filters used in nature, landscape and product photography. The special design allows for smooth and precise change of both parameters independently of each other. The filter is made of high-quality optical glass covered with numerous anti-reflective and protective layers, translating into high quality of the recorded image.

The ND filter value can be adjusted in the range of ND2x – ND32x, which is equivalent to changing the aperture value from 1 to 5. The filter is made of two superimposed rings - the lower one is responsible for polarization, and the upper one is responsible for limiting the amount of light transmitted. On the bezel of the upper bezel, there are special handles that make it easier to change the values and five control points, corresponding to the ND2x, ND4x, ND8x, ND16x and ND32x values, respectively.

Hybrid filters allow you not only to control the amount of light that reaches the camera's sensor, but also to polarize it additionally. They eliminate unwanted glare, bring out the blue of the sky or emphasize the intense green of plants. It should be remembered that the use of a polarizer also affects the exposure value, lowering it by 1 or 2 f-stops, so the use of hybrid filters should be associated with additional consideration of this value.

Nano-X filters are multi-coated filters, and their glass is additionally hardened, which effectively protects them from scratches or chips. The high transparency is accompanied by resistance to water and oil – no stains remain on the lenses, and accidental fingerprints or other small impurities can be easily removed. The frame is made of electrochromically blackened aluminium and is 9 mm thick.

Use

Hybrid filters combine the functionality of two of the most popular photographic accessories, which can be used in almost every situation. An ND filter allows you to slower the shutter speed or open the lens aperture wider, which has a direct impact on the depth of field and plasticity of the shot. A polarizing filter, on the other hand, allows you to bring out elements in the photo that are invisible to the naked eye - eliminate glare, "look through the glass" or bring out the blue of the sky during landscape photography. The Nano-X series of filters are high-quality accessories that will meet the expectations of the most demanding customers. They do not cause the color that is very often present with amateur segment filters. Numerous protective coatings improve image quality and effectively protect the glass surface from scratches or dirt. Bet on quality and enjoy amazing results with K&F Concept!
