Fader ND Digi Pro-HD Round

variable neutral density filter ND2-ND1000

After three years since the first generation of Fader ND was born, it became a popular HDSLR tool for photographers and filmmakers.

During the time we talked with customers, we heard their comments and feedbacks. We put them into the Fader ND Digi-Pro HD as much as we could.

 

Fader ND Digi Pro-HD was then firstly launched in a 4x4 inch format for professionals who need to use with a mattebox and it was a great successful with positive feedbacks.

Today, the Fader ND Digi Pro-HD is having the new members, in 77mm and 82mm screw thread size, with 52 to 72mm coming in the first quarter of 2012. Razor sharp image resolution (tested up to 500mm on a 135mm full frame camera) with an ultimate range of ND2 to ND1000 (subject to focal length of the lens, normal usable range at ND 2 to ND400~450), this filter is just perform as well as the 4x4 version.

 

In appearance, the fader ND Digi Pro-HD is equipped with a little handle to allow photographers for easier and more precise rotation. Matte finishing filter ring helps avoiding reflection of lights and with the special shape created it also helps increasing friction when holding on hand, decreasing the chance of dropping it on the ground when detaching/attaching it.
