Tiffen Variable ND Filter (58mm, 2 to 8-Stop)
Key Features
  • Variable 0.6 to 2.4 Optical Density
  • ColorCore Glass
  • Black Aluminum Filter Ring
  • Rotating Ring to Choose Degree of ND
This 58mm Variable ND Filter from Tiffen offers a unique way of maintaining control over your depth of field and presents an efficient way to create special effects. Designed with a built-in rotating ring that controls neutral density ranging from 2 to 8 stops (0.6-2.4), it allows heavier density for a slower shutter speed. The 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. It eliminates having to buy and carry around individual neutral density filters. With this one filter, you can rotate to the degree of ND you want, saving money and time.

Will this work on a canon xf100? And will this variable ND blur out the background of shots if necessary?
Asked by: Jake
Yes, the XF100 has a 58mm thread. The nd filter cuts down on light thereby opening up the aperture to let more light in and giving less depth of field and blurring the background, and will only do that if you can adjust the aperture of your lens.

Can a lens hood be screwed into this 58 mm Filter? If yes, what size diameter lens hood is needed? Recommendation?
Asked by: Jim
The Tiffen Variable ND Filter (58mm, 2 to 8-Stop) will attach to any lens that has 58mm front threads. The front of the filter is larger and would need a 67mm screw on hood such as the Sensei Collapsible Rubber Lens Hood II (Standard, 67mm), BH # SELHR267 MFR # LHR2-67.
