Its ultra-thin 9mm profile and wider outer optic minimize vignetting, making it ideal for wide-angle shots. Made in the USA with high-quality optical glass and advanced ColorCore technology, this filter enhances image clarity and color fidelity while eliminating the need for multiple ND filters. Perfect for creative professionals seeking precision and convenience in one sleek accessory. ## Description Product Description a unique way of maintaining total control over your depth of field as well as presenting an efficient way to create some special effects. The filter is designed with a built-in rotating ring that controls neutral density ranging from 2 - 8 stops (0.6- 2.4). The heavier the density, the slower your shutter speed will be. This longer exposure allows the shutter to remain open long enough to record the same amount of light but will also create movement within the shot. Another major benefit of this filter is the elimination of having to buy and carry around individual neutral density filters. With this one filter, you can rotate to the degree of ND you want - a real time and money saver. Manufacturer's Description Neutral density filters reduce the amount of light going through the lens into your camera. By reducing the light you are able to achieve the following: β€’ Allows the use of slow shutter speeds, with high speed films or digital cameras, to record movement/image blur in subjects such as waterfalls, clouds or any fast moving subject β€’ Gives you full control over your depth of field. You are able to decrease depth of field by using wider apertures, which helps separate subjects from their background (subject matter in focus while your background is blurred) β€’ Allows you to shoot high speed film (above ISO 400) in bright outdoor situations by reducing effective ISO β€’ Enables cine and video cameras (which have fixed shutter speeds) to film subjects such as snow, sand or other bright scenes which could cause overexposure ## Features - Provides 2 to 8 stops of light control - Thin profile ring - 9mm - Wider outer optic to help reduce vignetting at wide angles - Made with high quality optical glass using Tiffen's ColorCore technology - Made in the USA ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B005TFU812 | | Best Sellers Rank | 82 in Photography Grey Filters | | Box Contents | 1 x filter | | Brand | Tiffen | | Brand Name | Tiffen | | Coating Description | Multi-layer coating for improved image quality and durability | | Coating description | Multi-layer coating for improved image quality and durability | | Colour | Gray | | Compatible Devices | Cameras with 82mm filter thread size | | Country of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 1,890 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Optical Glass | | Exposure Control Type | Automatic | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00884613012632 | | Item Dimensions L x W | 8.2L x 8.2W centimetres | | Item Weight | 50 Grams | | Manufacturer | Tiffen | | Manufacturer Part Number | 82VND | | Material | Optical Glass | | Maximum Shutter Speed | 30 secondes | | Media Type | ProductImage | | Model Name | 30ND6 | | Model Number | 82VND | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Photo Filter Effect Type | Neutral Density | | Photo Filter Factor | 8 x | | Photo Filter Size | 82 Millimeters | | Photo Filter Thread Size | 82 Millimetres | | Photo filter effect type | Neutral Density | | Photo filter thread size | 82 Millimetres | | Screen Size | 3.23 Inches | | Set Name | 82VND | | UPC | 884613012632 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | Water resistance level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Tiffen - **Coating description:** Multi-layer coating for improved image quality and durability - **Material:** Optical Glass - **Photo Filter Factor:** 8 x - **Photo Filter Size:** 82 Millimeters - **Photo filter effect type:** Neutral Density - **Photo filter thread size:** 82 Millimetres - **Product dimensions:** 8.2L x 8.2W centimetres - **UPC:** 884613012632 - **Water resistance level:** Not Water Resistant ## Images ![82MM VARIABLE ND FILTER - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51NJGD4uAiL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern, Color, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An excellent piece of glass. *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 2 July 2014* So, the delivery took two attempts. The delivery agent broke the first filter but the second arrived safe and sound.What strikes you about this filter when you remove it from the soft sided case is that whilst not heavy, it's heavy enough to give the impression of real quality.If I could change one thing that would be the ease of screwing it onto the front of a lens. The ring is slightly recessed which makes for fitting a bit of a pain in the ar$e. Persevere and all is well but easily fitting it certainly isn't.I situ and frankly all works well. I can't say I'm seeing the colour cast folks write about but it's early days so I might revise that opinion in future.Using my NIkon I have found the steps of the variable ND accurate but one thing to note, go slightly past 'max' which will adjust the shutter speed and the resulting image is severely underexposed. Take the ring back to 'max' and all exposure returns to normal. I don't know why it has this effect and I certainly won't ever shoot it past max, but the metering behaviour of the camera is odd.Anyway, if you're on the lookout for a variable ND and don't want to buy a cheaper alternative then I can heartily recommend this Tiffen. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tiffen Variable Nd - What a joy! *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 21 June 2014* Exceptional sharpness. Have tried the LCW variable nd 52 mm but softened the images so badly that they were practically unusable. Don't waste your money and time buying the LCW like I had, make yourself a favour and go for Tiffen with trust, you won't be disappointed. I am using it in conjunction with an RX100 and MAG Filter adapter from Carryspeed. Tested during the weekend on the seaside to stop some water movement against the rocks and was totally blown away by the amount of detail and crispness of the images which are very good for post processing because of the amount of detail retained. The photos are sharp from close to the far distant horizon, they look as if they are made with a far more expensive camera. The quality of the filter is amazing, it feels strong as a tank and the ring is creamy smooth as the one from the front of the camera, a real pleasure of using it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Match for Sigma 30mm or 16mm 1.4 - Lens Caps Work *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 21 October 2018* Overall Conclusion:I have tried the Hoya and the Tiffen filter on my Sigma 30mm 1.4/Sony a6500 combination. I returned the Hoya and I am very happy with the Tiffen filter. It is not perfect, but provides a good solution for video. Lens caps do work by the way. (Note: I am using the Tiffen 67mm version on my Sigma 16mm 1.4 lens with no problem. So, the below applies to this combination as well.)How to Use:Just screw the filter to the front of your lens. The filter has two elements - you turn the front element to set the required strength. Please note that there is only one scale which always move to the wrong side when screwing on the filter. This means that I always have to turn the camera upside down when I want to check or adjust the strength. It's quite annoying, but acceptable due to the lack of proper alternatives.Please note that you can actually use a lens cap on this filter. There is a very shallow thread at the front of the filter I received from Amazon.co.uk. This means a lens cap does not fit 100% securely (due to the shallow thread), but it does hold on okay. I have not dropped the cap or lost it in the camera bag. I always leave the filter on my lens. I use the Eggsnow Lens Cap (62mm) which I bought on Amazon.co.uk for GBP 4.99 (pack of 2).Effectiveness:I went on a trip to Australia and this filter was essential to use the correct shutter speed while filming on my Sony a6500 in bright sunlight. I am able to use the filter up to the last dot for video and the second last dot for pictures without experiencing any x-effect - much better compared to the Hoya (please see my other review for the Hoya filter). Sharpness remains great and I did not notice any wear blue tint or any other colour problems which other reviewers noted here on Amazon or on YouTube.However, the filter is not perfect. I sometimes notice white balance issues when taking pictures. The camera will adjust after a while, but it seems to take longer than it would without the filter. It does give a slight colour cast towards the warmer side which I believe you need to accept when buying a variable ND filter at this price point.Quality & Price:My first filter which I ordered from Amazon.co.uk came with a small scratch on the glass. I order again and the new one was good. For the price, I did expect more. However, the actual filter seems to be of good quality and I have not had any problems. I noticed hat the front element does make crunching sounds when new. However, this got less and less under use and has now disappeared.If this review was helpful, please let me know by clicking the button below. ## Frequently Bought Together - Tiffen 82VND 82 Millimeter Variable ND Filter - K&F Concept 18 Pieces Filter Ring Adapter Set, Camera Lens Filter Metal Stepping Rings Kit (Includes 9pcs Step Up Ring Set + 9pcs Step Down Ring Set) Black - Tiffen 82BPM14 82mm Black Pro-Mist 1/4 Diffusion Camera Filter --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/48112399-82mm-variable-nd-filter](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/48112399-82mm-variable-nd-filter) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-10-25*
