KANI Circular ND Filter (ND4-ND100000)

KANI ND Filter

The KANI ND Filter is a high-quality neutral density filter designed for photographers and videographers who need precise light control while maintaining excellent image quality and natural color reproduction. It is ideal for long exposure photography, landscape photography, seascapes, waterfalls, cityscapes, architecture, and video shooting where shutter speed control is essential.

This ND filter series is available in multiple densities from ND4 to ND100000, allowing photographers to choose the most suitable light reduction level depending on the shooting environment and creative purpose. From slight exposure control to extreme long exposure photography, KANI ND filters provide reliable optical performance with very low color shift.

Available ND Densities

Creative Long Exposure Control

ND filters reduce the amount of light entering the lens, making it possible to use slower shutter speeds even in bright conditions. This allows photographers to create smooth water movement, flowing clouds, motion blur, and dramatic long exposure effects without overexposing the image.

Lower-density filters such as ND4, ND8, and ND16 are useful for slight exposure control and video shutter speed adjustment. Medium-density filters such as ND64, ND400, and ND1000 are ideal for standard long exposure photography. High-density filters such as ND10000, ND65000, and ND100000 are suitable for extremely bright conditions, special long exposure work, and advanced creative photography.

High Optical Quality with SCHOTT B270 Glass

KANI ND filters use German SCHOTT B270 optical glass, which provides excellent transparency and optical performance. The high-quality glass helps maintain sharp image detail, making it suitable for high-resolution cameras and professional shooting environments.

Very Low Color Cast

Thanks to advanced coating technology and vacuum deposition processing, KANI ND filters are designed to reduce unwanted color shift. This is especially important for long exposure photography, where poor-quality ND filters can cause strong blue, green, or magenta color casts.

By maintaining more neutral color reproduction, the filter helps reduce post-processing work and supports a more natural final image.

Ultra-Low Reflection Coating

The filter surface features a low-reflection coating with reflectance reduced to 0.3% or less. This helps minimize flare, ghosting, and unwanted reflections, especially when shooting in backlit scenes, near water, or in bright outdoor environments.

Water, Oil, and Dust Resistant Coating

The filter is treated with a strong water-repellent, oil-repellent, and dust-resistant coating. Water droplets are easily repelled, and fingerprints or dirt can be wiped off more easily. This makes the filter practical for outdoor use, including seaside photography, waterfalls, rivers, lakes, and rainy conditions.

Reinforced Glass for Durability

KANI ND filters use reinforced glass that offers approximately three times the strength of ordinary filter glass. This improves durability and makes the filter more resistant to accidental impact or drops during outdoor shooting.

Recommended Shooting Scenes

• Long exposure landscape photography
• Seascapes, waterfalls, rivers, and lakes
• Smooth water surface effects
• Cloud movement and dramatic sky expression
• Cityscape and architecture photography
• Traffic light trails and night photography
• Video shooting with controlled shutter speed
• Bright outdoor shooting with wide aperture lenses
