Product Information

Full details

The NiSi JetMag Pro 82mm Filmmaker Kit is designed for videographers and photographers seeking precise control over exposure and a cinematic aesthetic. Its key benefit is the rapid magnetic filter system, allowing for quick changes and stacking, even on wide-angle lenses. A potential caveat is the reliance on the magnetic system, which may require adaptation for those accustomed to traditional screw-in filters. This comprehensive kit includes essential ND filters and a Black Mist filter, along with adaptors for broad lens compatibility and a protective caddy case.

FAQs

Can I stack more than two JetMag Pro filters without vignetting?

The system is designed to allow stacking of two filters without vignetting at 16mm on full-frame sensors. Stacking three or more filters may increase the risk of vignetting, especially on wider lenses.

How do I clean the magnetic connection on the filters and adaptors?

Gently wipe the magnetic edges with a dry, soft microfiber cloth. Avoid using liquids on the magnetic contacts, as this could interfere with their performance or cause corrosion.

Are the adaptor rings compatible with other NiSi filter systems?

The JetMag Pro adaptor rings are specifically designed for the JetMag Pro magnetic filter system. They may not be compatible with other NiSi filter mounting systems.

What is the purpose of the locking mechanism?

The locking mechanism provides an extra layer of security, ensuring the filter stays firmly attached to the adaptor ring even under stress, preventing accidental detachment.

Does the Black Mist filter reduce sharpness?

The Black Mist 1/8 filter is designed to soften highlights and reduce contrast, creating a gentle glow. It aims to achieve this effect with minimal impact on overall image sharpness.

How do I store the filters when not in use?

The kit includes a JetMag Pro Caddy Case, which is ideal for storing all filters, adaptor rings, and caps in an organized manner. You can also stack filters with their protective caps attached for travel.

Can I use these filters for long exposure photography?

Yes, the included FS ND4 (2-stop), FS ND8 (3-stop), and FS ND16 (4-stop) filters are specifically designed to allow for longer exposures even in bright conditions, enabling creative effects like smoothing water or capturing motion blur.

Troubleshooting

Filter not attaching magnetically

Ensure the filter and adaptor ring are clean and free from debris. Make sure you are aligning the filter directly over the adaptor ring. Check that you are using a genuine NiSi JetMag Pro adaptor ring.

Filter detaches accidentally during movement

Ensure the locking mechanism is fully engaged by rotating the filter until it aligns with the white line on the adaptor. Re-check the security of the lock after initial attachment.

Vignetting visible in wide-angle shots

Confirm that no more than two filters are stacked if using very wide lenses. Ensure the filters are not obstructed by lens hoods or other accessories. The ultra-slim design is optimized, but extreme wide angles may still show slight effects with multiple filters.

Color cast present in images

The Full Spectrum ND filters are designed for neutral color. If a color cast is observed, it may be due to lighting conditions or the camera's white balance setting. Ensure white balance is set correctly or adjust in post-processing. Re-verify filter cleanliness.

Black Mist filter effect is too strong or too weak

The 1/8 strength is subtle. For stronger effects, consider additional diffusion filters or in-camera/post-processing adjustments. For weaker effects, use a lower strength Black Mist filter or remove the filter entirely.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Extremely fast filter changes due to the magnetic system.
Secure locking mechanism prevents accidental detachment.
High-quality Full Spectrum ND filters maintain color accuracy.
Black Mist filter adds a desirable cinematic look.
Adaptors allow use across multiple lenses, enhancing versatility.
Compact, stackable design minimizes storage space and avoids vignetting.

Cons

Requires purchasing specific JetMag Pro adaptor rings for non-82mm lenses.
The locking mechanism, while secure, adds a slight learning curve compared to simple screw-on filters.
Magnetic system might be susceptible to strong magnetic interference in specific environments (rare).
Can be more expensive than traditional individual screw-in filters.
Care must be taken not to scratch the filter surfaces when attaching/detaching magnetically.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Attach Adaptor Ring: Screw the appropriate NiSi JetMag Pro adaptor ring (67mm, 72mm, 77mm, or 82mm) onto your lens.
Mount Filter: Align the desired JetMag Pro filter over the adaptor ring. The strong magnets will snap it into place.
Secure Filter: For added security, rotate the filter's integrated locking mechanism until it aligns with the white line on the adaptor ring. This engages the lock.
Stacking Filters: To stack multiple filters, align the designated handles on the filter frames and rotate until they interlock and lock into place.

Compatibility:

The kit is designed for 82mm filter threads.
Included adaptor rings provide compatibility with lenses having 67mm, 72mm, 77mm, and 82mm front filter threads.
The ultra-slim design minimizes vignetting, even on wide-angle lenses (tested down to 16mm on full-frame sensors with two filters stacked).

Care:

Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to gently wipe fingerprints or dust from the filter surface. For stubborn smudges, use a lens cleaning solution applied sparingly to the cloth, not directly to the filter.
Coating: The filters feature a low-reflective, waterproof nano coating. Avoid abrasive materials that could damage this coating.
Storage: When not in use, store filters in the provided JetMag Pro Caddy Case. Ensure front and back caps are used when stacking filters for transport to protect them from dust and scratches. The front cap can remain attached to the camera for quick storage.
Handling: Always handle filters by their frames to avoid touching the glass. The magnetic system facilitates quick changes, but always ensure a secure grip during attachment and removal.
