Promising to be easy to install and featuring an ultra-thin frame, these new Nova Series HD VND and CPOL Filters are set to be made with high-quality quality allow materials and feature mult-layer coatings. They’ll also be ultra-wide compatible and powered with HD technology to be ready for the highest-end performance.
An oversized front glass will help to minimize vignetting, even with the aforementioned full-frame ultra-wide-angle lenses. Plus, as a combo ND and CPL filter, they will be able to perform as a true hybrid polarizer and ND filter.
The ND range will go from ND3 to ND32, which will be roughly a 1.5-stop to 5-stop range. The CPL polarizer will help reduce glare as well as adjust reflection, and boost color clarity.
