To use the PolarPro Helix Variable Neutral Density Filter (6 to 9 Stops) on the Nikkor Z 70-200mm f2.8 you will need to purchase this PolarPro Helix 77mm adapter ring separately. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1767533-REG
The Nikon NIKKOR Z 400mm f/4.5 VR S Lens has a 95mm filter thread and unfortunately the Helix adapter ring does not go to that size. Maximum they have is 82mm.

Is this an 82mm filter? Can I use this on my 77mm Canon 100-500mm with the lens hood attached? (with the 77mm adapter)
PolarPro Helix Variable Neutral Density Filter (2 to 5 Stops) is not a 82 mm filter. The Helix Variable Neutral Density Filter from PolarPro is designed for the Helix magnetic filter system and provides an exposure reduction of 2 to 5 stops. Variable ND filters are not designed to be used with the lens hood attached and the front element has a different size than the filter thread.
