Product Information

Full details

The Urth Variable ND2-32 + 1/4 Black Mist Filter Pro is designed for photographers and videographers seeking a hybrid solution that combines light management with cinematic aesthetics. It is ideal for creators looking to achieve a filmic, dreamy look while maintaining full control over exposure in varying daylight conditions; however, users should be aware that the variable ND mechanism requires careful handling to avoid the X-pattern effect often found at the extreme edges of variable neutral density filters.

FAQs

Does this filter fit lenses other than 67mm?

This filter is specifically threaded for 67mm lenses. You can use step-up rings if you wish to use it on lenses with a smaller filter thread diameter.

Will this filter cause vignetting on wide-angle lenses?

The ultra-slim profile is designed to minimize vignetting, but it is always recommended to test it on your specific focal length as performance can vary below 24mm.

Can I attach my lens cap over this filter?

Due to the variable ND mechanism, it is often best to use a slightly larger lens cap or check if the filter accepts a standard clip-on cap, though fitment can vary.

Is the Black Mist effect removable?

No, the Black Mist diffusion layer is integrated into the glass structure of the filter and cannot be separated from the ND component.

How do I maintain the water-repellent coating?

Gently clean with a microfiber cloth; avoid rough materials that could wear down the nano-coating over time.

Troubleshooting

Visible dark cross pattern in images

You have likely turned the filter past its optimal range; slightly rotate the filter away from the maximum ND32 setting until the pattern disappears.

Difficulty removing the filter from the lens

Use a specialized rubberized lens filter wrench to gain better grip without applying excessive pressure to the glass.

Image appears slightly soft at the edges

Ensure the filter is perfectly parallel to the lens surface and check that no debris is trapped between the filter and lens elements.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reduces the need for multiple filters by combining ND and diffusion.
  • Softens skin tones and highlights for a distinct cinematic aesthetic.
  • High-quality glass and coatings ensure minimal loss of sharpness.
  • Hard-stop mechanism makes operation intuitive and fast.
  • Durable, weather-resistant construction suitable for field work.

Cons

  • Potential for X-pattern cross-polarization at the maximum ND setting.
  • Variable ND filters generally require larger lens caps.
  • Fixed diffusion strength may not be suitable for all shooting scenarios.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, screw the filter clockwise onto the front threads of your 67mm lens until secure. Avoid overtightening, as this can make removal difficult. When cleaning the glass, use a high-quality microfiber cloth and an optical-grade lens cleaning solution to maintain the integrity of the 34-layer coating. Avoid using harsh chemicals. When storing your camera, ensure the filter is dry and, if possible, kept in its protective case to prevent smudges and scratches on the optical surface. Always check that the filter is properly aligned before shooting to ensure the Black Mist element is flush with the lens.
