Frequently asked questions
Does the Tiffen Variable ND cause an X-pattern?
The Tiffen Variable ND is designed to minimize the 'X' effect. However, it may appear if used beyond the 8-stop limit on extremely wide-angle lenses (wider than 20mm on full-frame).
Can I use my standard lens cap with this filter?
No, the front of the filter is larger than the thread size to prevent vignetting. For example, a 77mm filter requires a larger 82mm cap.
Does this filter affect image sharpness?
Tiffen's ColorCore glass ensures minimal impact on resolution, making it suitable for 4K and 8K professional cinematography.
