Benro ND8-1500 ULCA WMC Variable Neutral Density Filter 77mm

The Benro ND8-1500 ULCA WMC 77mm is a high-performance variable neutral density filter designed for photographers and videographers seeking precise exposure control. With a stop range of 3 to 11 stops (ND8 to ND1500), it enables creative long exposures and shallow depth of field even in bright conditions. The filter features Benro's advanced ULCA (Ultra Low Chromatic Aberration) and WMC (Water & Oil Multi-Coating) technologies, ensuring exceptional optical clarity, minimal color shift, and resistance to scratches, water, and oil. The aviation-grade aluminum alloy frame is lightweight yet durable, with a smooth rotation mechanism for seamless adjustment. Compatible with lenses featuring a 77mm filter thread, this filter is an essential tool for landscape, architectural, and creative photography.

Advantages

Versatile exposure control from 3 to 11 stops allows for dramatic long exposures and wide apertures in bright light. High-definition optical glass with ULCA coating minimizes chromatic aberration and maintains color neutrality. WMC coating repels water and oil, making cleaning easy and reducing flare. The slim, rotating frame prevents vignetting on wide-angle lenses and provides smooth, precise adjustments.

Suitable for

• Landscape photographers capturing silky waterfalls, smooth clouds, and motion blur
• Videographers needing consistent exposure in changing light
• Architectural photographers controlling depth of field in bright sunlight
• Creative photographers experimenting with long exposures and motion effects
