Urth 55mm Circular ND4 2-Stop Lens Filter Plus+

SKU CH-VZB0-11XZY

Reduces light by two stops for wider apertures or longer exposures, using German SCHOTT B270 glass with 20-layer nano-coating in a 55mm ultra-slim double-threaded frame

  • 2-stop light reduction for creative long exposures
  • 55mm thread fits compatible lenses directly
  • German SCHOTT B270 optical glass for clarity
  • 20-layer nano-coating resists water oil scratches
  • Ultra-slim double-threaded rim allows filter stacking

55mm ND4 Filter for Creative Exposure Control

The Urth 55mm Circular ND4 2-Stop Lens Filter Plus+ reduces incoming light by two fixed f-stops, giving photographers and cinematographers finer control over shutter speed and aperture in bright conditions. It is built from German SCHOTT B270 optical glass with a 20-layer nano-coating that resists water, oil and scratches while maintaining high light transmission. The ultra-slim, double-threaded rim prevents vignetting on wide-angle lenses and allows stacking or lens-cap attachment.

Suited to Fixed-Density Workflows.

This filter suits creators who want a single, repeatable two-stop reduction for long-exposure motion blur or shallow depth of field in strong light. The hardened coating simplifies cleaning in the field. Shooters who need adjustable density across a range of lighting, or who work with thread sizes other than 55mm, should look at a different filter.

Two-Stop Reduction With Optical Headroom

The ND4 factor cuts light to one-quarter, comfortably handling daylight scenes where a slower shutter or wider aperture is desired without over-exposure. The 20-layer coating keeps transmission consistent across the frame, so colour fidelity holds at the rated density. In extremely bright conditions such as midday snow or beach scenes, two stops may not be enough and a stronger fixed ND or variable filter would be required.

Questions about this item

Will this 55mm filter thread onto my lens?

Yes, if your lens has a 55mm front thread. The filter uses the same 55mm double-threaded mount, so it screws on directly and still accepts a 55mm cap or another filter on top.

How does the 2-stop reduction work with my camera's meter?

The filter cuts light by a fixed factor of four. Your camera's TTL meter reads through the glass, so it automatically compensates — just shoot at the exposure it indicates.

How can I check the nano-coating is performing after fitting the filter?

Look for water beading and rolling off the glass, and wipe away fingerprints with a dry microfibre cloth — they should lift without streaks or residue.
