Tiffen 72mm 2 to 8-Stop Variable ND Filter

The Tiffen 72mm 2 to 8-Stop Variable ND Filter is one of the most versatile exposure control tools available to photographers and videographers, replacing an entire set of fixed ND filters with a single, easy-to-use rotating filter. By simply turning the outer ring, you can dial in any level of light reduction from 2 stops all the way to 8 stops, giving you precise, on-the-fly control over depth of field, motion blur, and exposure in rapidly changing lighting conditions.

This makes it an ideal companion for run-and-gun video work, documentary shooting, travel photography, and any situation where you need to adapt quickly without swapping filters. No more fumbling with a filter wallet in the field — one filter covers the full range of shooting scenarios from overcast days to harsh midday sun.

Built using Tiffen’s renowned ColorCore technology, the optical glass is permanently laminated to deliver consistent colour neutrality across the entire variable range, ensuring your footage and images retain accurate, natural tones at every setting. Unlike cheaper variable ND filters that introduce cross-polarisation artefacts or colour shifts at higher densities, the Tiffen Variable ND maintains image integrity throughout its range.

The 72mm thread size provides broad compatibility with a wide range of professional lenses, and the durable, USA-made construction is built to perform reliably in the field. Whether you are a filmmaker, content creator, or stills photographer, the Tiffen 72mm Variable ND is a single investment that delivers the flexibility of an entire filter set.
