About This Item
Be at the forefront of photographic innovation with the Peter McKinnon Chroma VND/PL Filter. This groundbreaking product, a result of our collaboration with Peter McKinnon, combines a Variable Neutral Density (VND) filter and a Polarizer into one, designed to reduce glare and reflections while also lowering shutter speeds to cinematic levels. The adjustable polarizer in this filter provides a crisp, clean look to your images, while the VND feature allows you to dial in precise exposure for outdoor shooting. This unique setup features our all-new Chroma Glass, a revolutionary material that enables us to integrate a Polarizer into the Variable ND, resulting in exceptional neutral color accuracy. The Peter McKinnon Chroma VND/PL Filter also offers variations including the VND/PL with a 1/4 Black Mist or 1/8 Gold Mist, designed to add a subtle diffusion to surrounding highlights. The VND, a signature feature of McKinnon's filters, now comes with a new Chroma Glass element and a built-in polarizer that rotates independently from the VND, giving you the freedom to adjust from no polarization to full polarization. The independent polarization feature allows you to custom-tune your polarization to each scene, giving you full control over the level of glare reduction. The Chroma Series Glass, an all-new glass formula, produces unrivaled color accuracy and enables us to combine a Polarizer with a Variable ND into a single filter. The VND/PL | Black Mist and VND/PL | Gold Mist variations combine a Polarizer, VND, and either a 1/4 Black Mist or 1/4 Gold Mist into a single filter element, eliminating the need for stacking multiple filters. These variations allow you to create unique looks, such as subtle halation around areas of highlight while retaining deep black shadows, or a warming effect on highlights by blooming them slightly gold. The Peter McKinnon Chroma VND/PL Filter also features haptic feedback, allowing you to feel each VND stop lock into place and making it easier to rotate the polarizer without moving the VND. The Defender360 provides unmatched protection with a full 360-degree encasement, offering the highest level of filter protection available, whether it's on-camera or stored in your bag. The VND feature works to reduce lighting, enabling you to shoot at double frame rate to capture motion naturally with an added subtle blur. It's also ideal for capturing long exposure photography. The Polarizer gives you full control of reflections on various surfaces, while the Black Mist and Gold Mist options create smooth and subtle highlight roll-off, blooming light sources, and adding a hint of warmth to your images. Experience the benefits of this 6-in-1 filter combination, including zero vignetting, lower profile, faster setup speed and filter swaps, and less bag weight and more carry space. With the Peter McKinnon Chroma VND/PL Filter, you'll have the power to create stunning, professional-quality images with ease..
