K&F Concept Nano-X MRC CPL & Fader ND2-32 & Black Mist 1/4 Filter - 40,5 mm

3-in-1 Hybrid Photographic Filter

The K&F Concept Nano-X MRC CPL & Fader ND2-32 & Black Mist 1/4 filter (40.5 mm) integrates three essential photographic filters into one compact design: a variable neutral density (ND) filter, a circular polarising (CPL) filter, and a Black Mist 1/4 diffusion filter. This combination allows precise exposure control, effective glare elimination, and a subtle cinematic glow effect, making it ideal for photographers and filmmakers seeking versatile creative tools.

Key Features

• Compatible with lenses featuring a 40.5 mm thread diameter
• Variable ND filter with exposure reduction from 1 to 5 f-stops (ND2–32)
• Circular polarising filter to eliminate reflections and enhance color saturation
• Black Mist 1/4 diffusion filter for softening contrast and adding a cinematic glow
• Japanese AGC optical glass for exceptional clarity and durability
• 28-layer Nano-X Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC) providing water, dust, grease, and scratch resistance
• Slim aerospace-grade aluminium frame to prevent vignetting
• Precise rotation adjustment with self-locking ring and grooved surface for easy handling
• Lightweight and robust construction suitable for outdoor and field use
• Elegant leather-like protective case with magnetic closure and soft interior lining
• Vacuum-packed microfibre cloth included for cleaning

Exposure Control

The variable ND filter allows precise control over light entering the lens, enabling longer exposures or wider apertures without overexposure. The smooth rotation ring adjusts the density from ND2 to ND32 (1 to 5 stops) without producing the dark 'X' pattern common in some variable ND filters, ensuring consistent image quality.

Black Mist Diffusion Effect

The integrated Black Mist 1/4 filter gently diffuses light to soften contrasts and create a subtle, cinematic glow. This effect is especially beneficial for portrait photography, smoothing skin tones and enhancing natural beauty without post-processing.

Polarising Filter Functionality

The CPL filter effectively reduces unwanted reflections and glare from surfaces such as water, glass, and metal. It enhances color saturation and depth, emphasizing blue skies and green foliage, which is particularly useful in landscape photography.

Advanced Coating and Optical Quality

The 28-layer Nano-X MRC coating improves light transmission, minimizes glare, and protects the filter surface from water, dust, grease, and scratches. The hydrophobic properties ensure easy cleaning and durability. The use of high-quality Japanese AGC optical glass ensures exceptional transparency, scratch resistance, and neutral color reproduction, maintaining sharpness and minimizing distortion.

Design and Build

The filter's slim aerospace aluminium frame prevents vignetting even on wide-angle lenses. The grooved ring design facilitates easy mounting and adjustment, even when wearing gloves. The lightweight yet durable construction is ideal for photographers and filmmakers working in various outdoor conditions.

Included Accessories

• Leather-like protective case with magnetic closure and soft interior lining
• Side strap on the case for easy filter removal without touching the glass
• Vacuum-packed microfibre cleaning cloth
