NiSi Square Nano IR GND Medium 100x150mm ND16 1.2

NiSi Nano IR Medium Graduated Neutral Density Filter 100x150mm ND16 (1.2)

The NiSi Nano IR Medium Graduated Neutral Density (GND) filter is specifically designed for landscape photographers seeking precise control over exposure in scenes with bright skies and darker foregrounds. Constructed from high-quality environmental optical lens glass (H-K9L), not resin, this filter features a nano coating on both sides to preserve image detail and provide water and oil repellency.

Filter Characteristics

• Medium graduated transition with a dark area at the top gradually fading to clear at the bottom, effectively preventing overexposure of skies.
• Neutral density effect without altering image coloration.
• Repositionable within the filter holder to allow recomposition for optimal framing.
• Infrared protection coating to eliminate unwanted infrared light that can cause red color casts when shooting at small apertures, restoring natural colors.

Technical Features

• Ultra low color cast and ultra low reflection for high fidelity images.
• No vignetting, ensuring uniform exposure across the frame.
• High definition optical quality glass for sharpness and clarity.
• Nano coating on both sides for water and oil repellency, enhancing durability and ease of cleaning.
• Environmental optical lens glass (H-K9L) for superior optical performance.

Applications

This medium GND filter is particularly useful for scenes featuring buildings, mountains, or other elements protruding into the skyline, where a medium-edged transition line helps balance exposure between sky and foreground.

Available Density Steps

The 100x150 mm size is available in density steps of 2, 3, and 4 stops (maximum effect), with this model representing the 1.2 ND16 (approximately 4 stops) medium graduated density.
