Key Features
- Drop-in Circular Polarizer Filter
- Fits AF-S 400mm f/2.8E FL ED VR Lens
- 2 to 4x Filter Factor, +1 to 2 Stops
- Helps to Eliminate Reflections and Glare
This Nikon 40.5mm Drop-in Circular Polarizing Filter helps to reduce reflections and glare by filtering out light that has become polarized due to reflection from a non-metallic surface. It is made specifically to fit within the accessory filter slot of the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 400mm f/2.8E FL ED VR Lens whose front diameter is too large to accommodate a screw-on filter. With that lens, the effect of this filter occurs behind the main glass elements instead of in front of them.

question
Is the filter adjustment ring water resistant? Seems like a place that could potentially let in water into the lens during rain.
I am not sure but its a direct replacement for the filter that comes with the lens. I use a Thinktank cover any time Im shooting where the lens could get wet.

What filter needed for Nikkor ED SWM AF-S 400mm f2.8?
Nikon 400mm lens come with a drop-in filter. If you want a polarizing filter, the 40.5mm drop-in filter only works in the Nikon AFS 400mm f2.8E FL ED VR. This is the current model. The older AFS 400mm f2.9 requires the 52mm Circular Polarizer (C-PL1L).
