ICE 52mm 6 ND Filter Set Slim ND1000 ND64 ND32 ND16 ND8 ND4 - Slim

In this review of the ICE 52mm 6 ND Filter Set the bottom line is straightforward: this compact kit is for photographers who need reliable long-exposure control on wide-angle lenses without adding color cast or bulk. The reviewer found the set especially useful for landscape and cityscape work where neutrality and stacking options matter. Built with double-threaded metal frames and black-rimmed optical glass, the set delivers a predictable range from 2 to 10 stops while staying slim enough to avoid significant vignetting on many wide-angle setups.

Key Features

• ND1000 10-stop: enables very long exposures for smoothing water and cloud motion while maintaining neutral tones.
• ND64 6-stop: cuts exposure for twilight or bright scenes where moderate slow shutter speeds are needed.
• ND32, ND16, ND8, ND4: provide fine-grained exposure control across 5, 4, 3 and 2 stops for flexible on-the-fly adjustments.
• Double threaded metal frame: allows additional filters or a screw-on hood to be attached without removing the filter already on the lens.
• Slim 3.6mm depth: reduces the chance of vignetting on wide-angle lenses while keeping the overall weight low for handheld or tripod work.

Who It's For

This set is best for landscape and travel photographers using 52mm front threads who want a compact collection of neutral density strengths for long exposures and motion blur. It is also suited to videographers who need consistent exposure reduction without color shift when filming in bright conditions.

Those who should look elsewhere include users who require a single, very high-end resin or variable ND solution with marked ultra-low color cast testing, or photographers using lenses with much larger or smaller thread sizes; step-up rings or different diameter sets would be required.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Complete stop range from 2 to 10 stops covers most long-exposure needs without swapping between incompatible types.
• Black-rimmed optical glass and matte frame minimize stray reflections and help maintain neutral color balance.
• Double threads permit stacking or attaching a hood for added versatility on location.

Cons

• As a slim kit, extremely heavy stacking of multiple filters may still introduce slight vignetting on the widest lenses.
