Okko Pro / 可変NDフィルター 40.5mm

Switching between f-stops mid-shoot is seamless with this variable ND—I just twist the ring and keep rolling. It handles a solid 6 stops of reduction without ruining the color, which is exactly what I needed for outdoor video.

The ring turns smoothly, letting me dial in exactly the right exposure from one stop to the next without swapping glass. It saves me time on location when the sun keeps shifting behind clouds.

I’ve been swapping fixed ND filters for years and this one filter is a massive time-saver on set. The ability to dial in the exact light reduction mid-shot without unscrewing anything is brilliant, and the build feels solid enough for my everyday kit.
