Product Information

Full details

This guide is for photographers seeking greater creative control in bright conditions. The Urth 82mm ND1000 (10 Stop) Lens Filter Plus+ allows for dramatic long exposures and shallow depth of field even in intense light. A potential consideration is the filter's fixed 10-stop reduction, which may be too much for very low light scenarios. Key features include professional German glass, 20-layer nano-coating, and an ultra-slim rim.

FAQs

What does a 10-stop ND filter do?

A 10-stop ND filter dramatically reduces the amount of light entering your lens by a factor of 1000 (2^10). This allows you to use slower shutter speeds in bright light for motion blur effects or wider apertures for shallower depth of field without overexposing your image.

Can I stack this filter with other filters?

Yes, the double-threaded design allows you to stack this ND1000 filter with other filters, such as a Circular Polarizer (CPL) or another ND filter, though stacking may increase the risk of vignetting on wider lenses.

Will this filter affect the color of my photos?

The Urth Plus+ range features advanced coatings designed for truer light transmittance and a more consistent transmission curve, minimizing color cast. However, like all strong ND filters, some minimal color shift might occur, which can typically be corrected in post-processing.

Is this filter suitable for video recording?

Yes, it is excellent for video recording in bright conditions when you want to achieve a cinematic shutter speed (e.g., 1/50s or 1/60s for 24fps or 30fps footage) or a shallower depth of field.

What is the 'Plus+' designation?

The 'Plus+' designation indicates that this filter features Urth's advanced 20-layer nano-coating, providing enhanced protection, easier cleaning, and improved light transmission compared to standard filters.

How do I know if my lens is compatible?

Check the front of your lens for a number followed by a circle symbol (e.g., ø82mm). This number indicates the filter thread size. This filter requires an 82mm thread.

What is the advantage of the ultra-slim rim?

The ultra-slim rim is designed to prevent dark corners (vignetting) in your photos, especially when using this filter on wider-angle lenses.

Troubleshooting

Vignetting (dark corners) in photos

Ensure the filter is properly seated. If using on a wide-angle lens, try stopping down the aperture slightly, or consider if the ultra-slim rim is sufficient for your specific lens combination.

Images appear too dark

The 10-stop reduction is significant. Ensure you are compensating correctly in your exposure settings (longer shutter speed or wider aperture). This filter is best suited for very bright conditions.

Filter is difficult to screw onto the lens

Check that you have the correct filter thread size (82mm) and that there are no cross-threads. Clean the lens threads and the filter threads gently.

Smudges or fingerprints on the filter are hard to remove

Use a high-quality lens cleaning solution and a clean microfiber cloth. For stubborn marks, a second application may be needed. Avoid abrasive materials.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enables creative long exposures and motion blur in bright light.
  • Facilitates shallower depth of field by allowing wider apertures.
  • High-quality German glass ensures excellent image clarity.
  • Durable nano-coating offers enhanced protection and easy cleaning.
  • Slim rim minimizes the risk of vignetting.
  • Lifetime guarantee on durable magnalium construction.

Cons

  • Fixed 10-stop reduction can be too strong for lower light conditions.
  • Requires careful handling to avoid scratching the multi-coated glass.
  • May introduce a slight color cast, though the advanced coating minimizes this.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the filter thread size of your lens (this filter is 82mm).
  2. Gently screw the filter onto the front of your lens clockwise until it is snug. Do not overtighten.
  3. Your camera should automatically detect the filter thread size, or you may need to adjust your camera's settings if it prompts you.

Compatibility:

  • This filter is compatible with any lens that has an 82mm front filter thread.
  • The double-threaded design allows you to stack other filters (like a CPL or another ND filter) on top of this one, or attach a lens cap to the outside of the stacked filters.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove loose dust and debris. For smudges or fingerprints, use a microfiber lens cloth lightly dampened with lens cleaning solution. Always wipe gently in a circular motion from the center outwards.
  • Storage: Store the filter in its protective case when not in use to prevent scratches and damage.
