Haida NanoPro MC 82mm ND128000 Neutral Density 5.0 Filter

SKU CH-4VJZ-GCN0N

82mm ND5.0 filter cuts 16.5 stops for ultra-long exposures or solar shooting, with nano coating that repels water and oil for easy cleaning

  • 128000x filter factor enables extreme long exposures
  • 5-stop reduction allows wide apertures in bright light
  • Colour-neutral glass preserves natural tones when stacking filters
  • Nano coating causes water and oil to bead for easy cleaning
  • Extra lapping and polishing cuts reflections for maximum sharpness

Purpose and user

The Haida NanoPro MC 82mm ND128000 Neutral Density 5.0 Filter is built for photographers who need extreme light reduction. Its 128000x filter factor delivers 16.5 stops of darkening, allowing very wide apertures or very long shutter speeds even in bright daylight. The filter maintains original image coloration, making it suitable for stacking with other filters. It also serves well for solar photography where heavy neutral density is required.

Installation and common issues

The filter screws directly onto any lens with an 82mm front thread, so fitting takes only seconds. The nano coating causes water and oil to bead up, which makes routine cleaning faster and reduces the risk of streaks. The most frequent problem is vignetting on wide-angle lenses when the filter frame adds thickness, especially if a lens hood is also mounted. Over-tightening can bind the threads, so hand-tighten only.

Practical limits of the ND5.0 standard

A 5.0 density filter blocks nearly all visible light, so autofocus and through-the-lens metering often stop working; manual focus and exposure calculation become necessary. Very long exposures introduce thermal noise and can record unwanted motion such as wind-blown foliage. The 16.5-stop reduction is fixed, so scenes that need less darkening require a different filter or a variable ND. Colour cast is minimal but not zero, and stacking multiple filters increases the chance of flare.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the filter is cutting 16.5 stops of light once mounted?

Take a test exposure at the same aperture and ISO with and without the filter fitted; the shutter speed should lengthen by about 16.5 stops if the ND5.0 density is performing correctly.

What comes in the box with the 82mm ND128000 filter and what must I purchase separately?

The package includes the 82mm NanoPro MC ND5.0 filter; you will need to buy a compatible 82mm lens cap, cleaning cloth or filter pouch separately if you do not already own them.

When should I choose the ND128000 version over other densities in the Haida NanoPro MC line?

Select this 5.0 density when you need a 128000x factor for extreme long exposures or for photographing very bright subjects such as the sun; lighter densities give fewer stops of reduction.
