Description

The World’s First Hyper-Neutral ND

Firecrest ND 6×6 is a quantum leap improvement over all previous generation ND and IRND products and represents the technological state of the art in scientific light modification. These glass filters are hyper-neutral across the visible light spectrum and also remove more IR contamination than any other filter – making them IRND filters.

Firecrest 6×6 is a radical departure in how ND filters are manufactured. Previous generation NDs were made by dying resin. Firecrest is not a dying process, it is a rare earth metal coating process that is applied directly to the glass through an electrolytic process.

This is then bonded between further layers of the finest Schott Superwhite optical glass to provide industry leading scratch resistance and longevity.

For complete light leakage protection, a component on blackout edging is applied to completely alleviate the risk of light leak that can occur through unprotected filter edges.

Neutral Density (ND) filters are the essential filters for digital photography and cinematography. ND filters reduce the amount of light entering the camera and allow the photographer to create the following effects:

  • Ethereal waterfalls and streams
  • Flat water effect in oceans and lakes
  • Streaky clouds
  • Motion blur in sports
  • Long exposures to remove people from public areas
  • Shallow depth of field using fast lenses wide-open
  • Adjusting aperture for cinematography

Our extended kit of 8 Firecrest 6×6 filters should cover any possible requirement.
