NEEWER 55mm Fixed ND Filter Kit ND1000 ND64 ND8 ND4 - Slim Nano Coated

In this review the NEEWER 55mm Fixed ND Filter Kit earns recommendation for landscape and long exposure shooters who need a simple, affordable way to control exposure. The kit includes ND1000, ND64, ND8 and ND4 filters and is built around HD optical glass with double sided 30 layer nano coatings to reduce reflections and preserve sharpness. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of ultra slim frames that avoid vignetting on wide-angle lenses and robust coatings that make the filters easy to keep clean in the field.

Key Features

• ND filter function: Darkens the entire image so you can use wider apertures or slower shutter speeds to capture motion and control outdoor overexposure.
• Ultra slim frame: The 3.3mm aviation aluminum frame is thin and lightweight to reduce vignetting on wide-angle lenses while remaining durable.
• Double sided nano coatings: Thirty layers of coating on both sides cut reflections and glare while helping maintain image sharpness.
• Waterproof and scratch resistant: Hydrophobic, oil resistant and scratch-resistant surfaces keep droplets beaded and make the filters easier to clean.
• Tool-free handling: CNC non-slip frame design makes the filters simple to screw on and remove without binding.
• Complete kit: Includes ND1000, ND64, ND8 and ND4 filters plus a clean cloth and a water resistant pouch for transport.

Who It's For

The kit suits photographers who shoot landscapes, waterfalls or any scene where long exposures improve the image, especially those using wide-angle lenses who need to avoid vignetting. Hobbyists and enthusiast shooters will appreciate the straightforward filter stops (ND4, ND8, ND64, ND1000) for learning and creative control without investing in variable or square systems.

Those who need filter systems for large-diameter lenses, professional multi-filter holders, or who require ultra high-end optical glass beyond the stated HD construction should look elsewhere; this kit is aimed at users who want practical, durable filters for everyday outdoor use rather than specialized lab-grade optics.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Ultra slim 3.3mm aviation aluminum frames reduce the chance of vignetting on wide-angle lenses.
• 30 layer double sided nano coatings improve contrast and reduce reflection and flare.
• Hydrophobic, scratch- and oil-resistant surfaces are easy to clean and maintain in the field.
• Includes a water resistant pouch and cleaning cloth for practical transport and care.

Cons

• Kit is limited to 55mm thread size, so additional step rings are needed for different lenses.
• Not a replacement for professional specialty glass if absolute top-tier optical performance is required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these filters cause vignetting on wide-angle lenses?
The ultra slim 3.3mm frame design is intended to minimize vignetting on most wide-angle setups, though very extreme wide-angle or fisheye lenses may still require testing.

Are the coatings water and scratch resistant?
Yes, the 30 layer double sided nano coatings provide hydrophobic, oil- and scratch-resistant properties that make droplets bead and surfaces easier to clean.

What is included in the kit?
The kit includes ND1000, ND64, ND8 and ND4 filters, a clean cloth and a water resistant filter pouch for storage and transport.
