Our entry-level ND8 filter provides a fixed 3 f-stop light reduction. Cutting out 3 f-stops of light gives you better control with long exposure and depth of field techniques in low light.
DESCRIPTION
By blocking light entering your camera, our ND8 Filter allows you to use longer shutter speeds for long exposure and motion blur effects in low light.
With less light entering your camera, you can use wider apertures in low light for shallower depth of field without overexposing images.
Cinematographers can use our ND8 Filter to create more cinematic effects in low light without losing quality or overexposing the shot.
All our circular filters come with a protective travel tin case, a recycled cleaning cloth, and recycled plastic-free packaging.

1/4
Search your lens and find the diameter symbol Ø followed by a number e.g. Ø58 or Ø58mm). This can be found on the front or side of your lens – this magic number is your filter size. Note: Your lens focal length (e.g. 18-55mm) is not your filter size.
2/4
Lovingly behold lens in one hand and place flat on lens. Gently screw clockwise until just firm. Do not over-tighten – that which goes on must one day come off.
3/4
The fixed f-stop darkening of your images allows a controlled slowing of your shutter speed for motion blur effects.
4/4
Or, you can adjust for fixed f-stop darkening by opening up your aperture, which creates a shallower depth of field. You can also combine both exposure setting adjustments.

Which ND filter should I buy?
The best ND filter for your photography will depend on the effects you want to achieve.
The first choice you need to make it whether to go for a Fixed ND Filter or a Variable ND Filter. A variable ND filter offers more options, which is great if you’re shooting in changing light conditions, or just starting out with ND filters. A fixed ND provides a specific light reduction and works better with telephoto and wide-angle lenses. The next choice you need to make is the level of light reduction you want. The higher the ND number, the more light it blocks from reaching your camera sensor.
Should I buy a fixed or variable ND filter?
It depends on how, where and what you’ll be shooting.
Fixed ND filters block a fixed f-stop of light from entering your camera. Variable ND filters provide more flexibility and have a range of f-stops you can block by rotating the outer element. If you’re starting out with ND filters, we recommend a Variable ND so you have more flexibility while you’re learning how to shoot with an ND. If the light is likely to change often, a Variable ND saves you changing between fixed NDs each time.
Do I need to get an ND if I already have a CPL?
Yes, if you want more than a 2 f-stop reduction of light.
While CPL filters polarize light to remove reflections and increase colour saturation, ND filters reduce the amount of light that makes it through to your camera’s sensor, which opens up opportunities to experiment with depth of field and motion blur effects even in bright light.
What are the best ND filters for wide-angle and telephoto lenses?
Our whole range of Fixed ND Filters work with wide-angle and telephoto lenses.
Our ND filters have ultra-slim rims to avoid any vignetting issues. Our Fixed ND Filters are all in our professional Plus+ range and use the world’s best glass, making them perfect for wide-angle and telephoto lenses.
What do the ND Filter numbers mean?
The higher the number, the more light it blocks from entering your camera.
The 4 of our ND4 Filter Plus+ refers to the amount of light blocked. An ND2 reduces light transmittance to a quarter. An ND8 reduces it to an eighth, an ND1000 reduces it to 1/1000th.
" I love love love shooting with this filter, I no longer have fear of shooting in the middle of the day with the right set up. I plan to get more and def recommend!" – Preston bought our ND8 1Peak.
