Benro ULCA WMC Slim 82mm Circular Polarizing Filter
Designed with professional landscape photographers in mind, this 100 x 150mm Master Series Soft Edge Graduated ND Filter from Benro has an 8x filter factor that provides a 3-stop exposure reduction in selected areas. This specific model features a soft edge in its center, fading gradually from completely clear to darkened as we move towards the top. This allows the filter to keep bright skies under control without creating a line in the image, making it ideal for pictures without a clearly defined horizon line.
The Master Series filters are made with Schott B270 glass and finished with several different layers of coating. These layers increase the resistance of the glass to avoid scratches and help keep the surface waterproof, making it easier to clean when shooting in inclement weather. Additionally, the filter is designed for a neutral performance that avoids affecting color rendition and curtails the unnatural colors found in some pictures with high contrast.
- GND filter featuring a density of 0.9, with a smooth transition from completely clear to the darkened section.
- Filter factor of 8x makes for an exposure reduction of 3 stops.
- Filter features multicoated Schott B270 glass construction.
- Anti-scratch and waterproof coatings make filter easy to clean and allow for its use in rain or snowy conditions.
- Filter is designed to not affect color rendition and eliminate problems with high contrast areas.
The 100 x 100mm Benro Master Series ND Filter has a 16x filter factor that provides a 4-stop exposure reduction. Its 1.2 density creates a darkening of the entire image, allowing you to photograph with a wider aperture or slower shutter speed than normally required. By increasing your aperture or slowing your exposure time, you can control depth of field and convey movement more easily. Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image and are ideal for pairing with other filters.
To prevent internal ghosting and reflections, each glass surface includes multiple layers of antireflection coating. These coatings also offer greater protection to the filter substrate and help it to stay clean for longer than with uncoated filters. The nano coating associated with Benro Master Series neutral density filters provides an additional 13th layer over each side of this filter, resulting in an improved beading effect when in contact with water for greater cleaning efficiency.
This filter is constructed from SCHOTT B270 glass for increased optical clarity as well as color fidelity and measures 2mm thick.
The 46-72 and 67-82mm FTU1 Filter Wrench Kit from Benro is used to remove lens filters that have become stuck or for filters that have been stacked together and bound. Place the wrench around the diameter of the filter, squeeze the two ends of the wrench, and turn it counterclockwise to remove the filter.
Prevent stray light from affecting your photos with the Light Tent from Benro, which is designed for their FH100 100mm filter holder. This simple accessory is made of black fabric and goes directly over the holder and whatever filters you have installed, featuring elastic bands on both openings for a tight fit. It blocks unwanted light coming from the sides of your setup, helping you avoid flares or other reflections that can show up on your images and degrade its quality.
