Vivitar 58mm Variable ND Fader Filter

Shoot on Your Terms, Not the Light's

When the scene doesn't cooperate, the Vivitar 58mm Variable NDX Filter puts exposure control back in your hands. Designed for photographers who refuse to compromise, this filter lets you dial exposure density continuously from 0.3 to 3.0 (ND2 to ND1000) — all without swapping glass between shots.

A simple rotation of the front filter ring adjusts light reduction across a 1 to 10 stop range, letting you previsualize your exposure before you even press the shutter. Whether you want to stretch a waterfall into silky motion with a slower shutter speed, or open your aperture wide for a beautifully shallow depth of field in bright conditions, this filter adapts instantly to your creative intent.

Precision Built Into Every Rotation

Repeatable results are made easy thanks to clearly marked stop indicators on the front ring — each dot representing one full stop of neutral density. This means you can return to a proven setting quickly, session after session, without guesswork. The entire image is darkened uniformly, preserving color accuracy while giving you the flexibility to shoot wide open or slow things down whenever inspiration strikes.
