55 mm Variable ND Filter for Photo and Video
The Ultimaxx 55mm Variable Neutral Density Filter threads onto any lens with a 55 mm front thread. It provides continuously adjustable light reduction from ND2 to ND400 by twisting the built-in rotating ring. Digital multi-coated HD Japan optics preserve clarity across the range. The filter suits photographers and videographers who need flexible exposure control without swapping fixed ND filters.
Multi-Coated Optics and Rotating Ring Design
Japan-sourced glass receives a digital multi-coating that reduces flare and ghosting in bright conditions. The integrated rotating ring turns smoothly to vary density, allowing quick adjustments while shooting. Standard 55 mm threads ensure compatibility with a wide range of digital, video and SLR camera lenses. The slim profile minimises vignetting on wider focal lengths.
Light Control Without Exposure Compromise
Variable density from ND2 to ND400 lets you maintain chosen apertures for depth of field or shutter speeds for motion blur in strong light. The multi-coating helps maintain contrast and colour fidelity throughout the adjustment range. No external power or electronics are involved, so operation is silent and reliable in any environment. The filter adds negligible weight to the lens barrel.

Questions about this item
What is the filter thread size on the Ultimaxx Variable ND?
The filter has a 55 mm thread that screws directly onto any lens with a matching 55 mm front diameter.
How thin is the filter frame and will it vignette on wide-angle lenses?
The built-in rotating ring adds minimal thickness; on most wide-angle zooms it clears the front element, but ultra-wide focal lengths may show slight corner darkening at maximum density.
How do you set the density without introducing cross-polarisation artefacts?
Rotate the front ring slowly while watching the viewfinder or live view; stop before the "X" pattern appears, which marks the limit beyond the ND400 setting.
