Product Information

Full details

The Urth Variable ND2-32 + 1/4 Black Mist Filter Pro is designed for photographers and videographers seeking to combine exposure control with a cinematic aesthetic. It is ideal for creators looking to achieve shallow depth of field in bright light while softening highlights for a dreamy, film-like quality. While the filter offers significant versatility, users should be aware that combining two optical effects into one unit may slightly increase complexity during quick lighting changes compared to using independent filters.

FAQs

Can I stack another filter on this?

While technically possible, stacking filters on an ND/Mist hybrid is not recommended as it will likely cause heavy vignetting.

Will this fit a 67mm lens?

No, this is a 58mm filter. You would need a 58mm to 67mm step-down ring, though this may cause vignetting depending on the lens.

Does the black mist effect impact sharpness?

Black mist filters slightly soften highlights and reduce contrast, which is a stylistic choice rather than a loss of optical resolution.

Is the filter weather-sealed?

The CoraNano Max coating is water-repellent, protecting the glass from rain and spray, but the filter itself is not a substitute for a weather-sealed camera body.

What does the 1/4 strength mean?

It refers to the intensity of the diffusion. 1/4 is a popular middle-ground that provides a visible cinematic glow without completely softening the image.

Troubleshooting

Visible vignetting at wide focal lengths

Ensure the filter is screwed on evenly and that no other filters are stacked on top of it, which could increase the thickness.

Difficulty removing the filter from the lens

Use a dedicated rubber lens filter wrench to apply even pressure without scratching the frame.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reduces gear weight by combining two essential tools
  • Prevents over-rotation with built-in hard stops
  • Excellent build quality with durable aluminum frame
  • Easy-to-clean hydrophobic and oleophobic coating
  • Smooth rotation for quick exposure adjustments

Cons

  • Fixed diffusion strength may not be suitable for every shooting scenario
  • Requires specific lens threading (58mm) or step-up rings
  • Variable ND filters can introduce slight color shifts at maximum settings

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, simply screw the filter onto the front element of your 58mm lens until secure. Do not overtighten, as this may make removal difficult. If your lens is smaller than 58mm, use a step-up ring to ensure a proper fit.

Care instructions are straightforward: keep the filter in its protective case when not in use. If the glass surface gets smudged, use a clean microfiber cloth or a dedicated lens pen. The CoraNano Max coating is water and oil-resistant, meaning fingerprints and moisture will wipe away easily without smearing. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can strip the multi-coatings over time.
