Product Information

Full details

The Cokin X-Pro NUANCES Extreme Solid ND64 is a professional-grade neutral density filter designed for landscape and long-exposure photographers using the 130mm X-Pro system. It provides a 6-stop light reduction, enabling the use of slower shutter speeds and wider apertures in bright daylight to create motion blur in clouds or water. While it offers industry-leading durability and color neutrality, users should note that it requires a dedicated Cokin X-Pro (XL) filter holder system to function correctly.

FAQs

Does this filter cause a color cast?

No, the Nuances Extreme series is specifically designed for high color neutrality to ensure accurate white balance.

Can I use this filter with a circular lens?

This is a square/rectangular filter intended for use with a Cokin X-Pro (XL) 130mm filter holder system, not for direct attachment to a lens filter thread.

What is the primary benefit of the Nano-Metallic coating?

The coating ensures uniform light density across the entire filter and eliminates infrared light pollution.

Is it safe to stack this with other filters?

Yes, the filter is designed to be stacked with other Cokin Nuances filters without significant image degradation or color shifts.

How do I know if my lens is compatible?

If your lens can accommodate an X-Pro (XL) 130mm holder via an adapter ring, it is compatible with this filter.

Troubleshooting

Light leak visible at edges of long exposure

Ensure the filter is seated firmly in the innermost slot of the holder and use a piece of black gaffer tape to cover the gap between the filter and the holder if necessary.

Difficulty inserting filter into holder

Check the filter holder tracks for debris or sand; wipe down both the filter edges and the holder tracks with a dry cloth.

Image appears slightly soft

Verify that the filter surface is clean and free of fingerprints; also ensure the filter is parallel to the lens plane.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use the filter, ensure you have a compatible Cokin X-Pro (XL) 130mm series holder attached to your lens via the appropriate adapter ring. Slide the filter into the innermost slot closest to the lens to minimize light leaks.

Care Instructions:

  1. Always store the filter in its protective pouch when not in use.
  2. Clean the glass using a dedicated lens cleaning solution and a clean microfiber cloth.
  3. Avoid using abrasive materials that could compromise the Nano-Metallic coating.
  4. If the filter gets wet with saltwater, rinse gently with distilled water and dry immediately to prevent mineral spotting.
