Irix Edge ND8 0.9 3 Stop Filter

With less than 3 stops of exposure reduction, the ND8 filter is just the ticket for subtle effects. An optical density of 0.9.3 is just enough for those times when you need to open that aperture just a bit more than the situation allows.

Suppose you're shooting a gently babbling brook in bright sunlight and want just enough blur to make the image more dynamic. Perhaps you'd like to shorten the depth of field in your image, but there's just too much light to allow it. Those are the situations when you'll reach for this one.

Don't let its subtle nature fool you. This little jewel is as rugged as the rest of our Edge circular line. It's manufactured with the highest quality optical glass and treated with our NANO coating, which repels water and resists oil, so it stays free of oily fingerprints and water stains.

Because it's a threaded filter, it seats solidly against the lens barrel and eliminates light leaks that can cause glare.
