Elevate your creative vision and gain ultimate control over light with the PolarPro Chroma VND/PL 2-5 Stop Filter from the acclaimed McKinnon Edition. Designed for discerning photographers and videographers, this professional-grade 67mm filter is a masterclass in optical engineering, combining two essential tools into one seamless, high-performance unit for your DSLR or mirrorless camera.Experience unparalleled creative freedom in bright, challenging lighting conditions. The core of this filter is its 2 to 5 stops of variable neutral density (VND). This range is the workhorse for most daytime shooting, allowing you to open up your aperture for a beautifully shallow depth of field, even in harsh sunlight. Isolate your subject with stunning bokeh without overexposing your image. For filmmakers, the VND is crucial for maintaining the 180-degree shutter rule, enabling you to lock in a cinematic shutter speed (like 1/50s for 24fps) to achieve natural, fluid motion blur, regardless of the ambient light.Integrated directly into the filter is a high-quality circular polarizer (CPL). With a simple rotation, you can cut through distracting glare and reflections from non-metallic surfaces like water, glass, and foliage. This instantly enhances your image by revealing detail and texture that would otherwise be lost. The polarizer also dramatically boosts color saturation and contrast, making blue skies deeper, clouds more defined, and landscapes more vibrant and punchy, saving you valuable time in post-production.What sets the McKinnon Edition apart is its flawless execution and user-centric design. The filter features a revolutionary haptic feedback mechanism, providing a subtle, perceptible click at each stop. This allows you to make precise, eyes-free adjustments while you remain focused on your composition—a game-changing feature for run-and-gun videographers. At the heart of the filter is PolarPro´s new Chroma glass, which delivers a hyper-neutral color profile and zero color shift across the entire density range, ensuring your footage and photos are rendered with perfect color accuracy.Engineered for optical perfection, the design guarantees zero vignetting on lenses as wide as 16mm, preserving the integrity of your entire frame. The aerospace-grade aluminum frame is both lightweight and incredibly durable, with laser-etched stop indicators for clear, easy reading. To protect your investment, the filter includes the robust Defender360™ case, providing 360-degree protection from dust, water, and impacts, serving as both a front and back cap. This isn´t just a filter, it´s an essential creative instrument for anyone serious about the quality of their craft
