The KANI Variable ND2–400 SidePole 95mm is an essential filter for creators seeking flexible light control during video or still shooting. This variable ND filter offers seamless light reduction from ND2 to ND400 (approx. 2 to 8 2/3 stops), making it ideal for adjusting exposure without changing aperture or shutter speed.

• Optimized for Video: Perfect for video shooting or time-lapses at sunrise/sunset where real-time exposure adjustment is critical.

• High-Quality Construction:

  • Dual-sided ultra-precision polishing for flatness

  • Premium multi-coating with water, oil, and dust resistance

  • Anti-static coating to repel particles

• Color Fidelity: Minimizes common blue/green tints found in variable NDs. Offers uniform and neutral light reduction.

• Lightweight & Compact: Ideal for travel and minimal gear setups.

• Front Thread: 95mm (accepts lens caps and filters)

Recommended Use Cases:

1. Video Fade-Outs: Gradually darken scenes without editing using variable ND fade.

2. Dynamic Lighting Conditions: Instantly adapt ND strength during golden hour or fast-changing environments.

3. Portraits in Bright Light: Shoot wide open (e.g., f/1.4) in daylight without overexposing.

4. Beginner-Friendly: Explore various ND effects with a single filter.

⚠ Note: On ultra-wide to standard focal lengths, cross-pattern artifacts (X-shape) or color shifts may appear at extreme ND settings. For long exposures, light leaks through the viewfinder may affect results—use an eyepiece shutter if needed.
