About This Item
While collaborating with renowned photographer Peter McKinnon, we've developed the Polar Pro Peter McKinnon Chroma VND/PL Filter, an innovative solution designed to enhance your photography and videography experience. This versatile filter combines a Variable Neutral Density (VND) filter with a Polarizer, effectively reducing glare and reflections while allowing you to achieve cinematic shutter speeds. The adjustable polarizer ensures a sharp, clean image, while the VND component enables precise exposure control, particularly beneficial for outdoor shooting.At the heart of this setup is our all-new Chroma Series Glass, which delivers exceptional color accuracy by seamlessly integrating a Polarizer into the Variable ND filter. This unique combination allows for independent polarization adjustment, giving you the flexibility to fine-tune the level of polarization from none to full, depending on your creative needs.The Chroma VND/PL Filter is available in additional variations, including the VND/PL with a 1/4 Black Mist or 1/8 Gold Mist. These options introduce subtle diffusion to highlights, enhancing your images with a distinctive look. The Black Mist variation softens excessive sharpness, creating a smooth highlight roll-off and blooming light sources, while retaining deep shadow detail. Meanwhile, the Gold Mist adds a warm, golden hue to highlights, offering a filmic aesthetic.This filter features a preset stop range to prevent cross-polarization, and haptic feedback ensures each VND stop locks securely into place, allowing for easy rotation of the polarizer without disturbing the VND setting. The Defender360 provides unparalleled protection with its full 360-degree encasement, safeguarding your filter whether it's mounted on your camera or stored in your bag.The VND function reduces lighting, enabling you to shoot at double frame rates for natural motion capture with subtle blur, and is also ideal for long exposure photography. The polarizer can be adjusted to control reflections on surfaces like water, windows, and vehicles, offering maximum glare reduction or the option to include reflections in your composition.With this 6-in-1 filter, you can eliminate the need for stacking multiple filters, reducing vignetting and maintaining a lower profile on your lens. This results in faster setup times, easier filter swaps, and less weight in your camera bag, providing more space for other essentials. Experience the benefits of this comprehensive filter combination and elevate your creative projects with the Polar Pro Peter McKinnon Chroma VND/PL Filter.
