• Integrated linear polarizer eliminates reflections and glare from non-metallic surfaces such as water, glass, and foliage
• Black Mist diffusion creates a subtle halation around highlights, adding a cinematic texture to skin tones and light sources
• 95mm filter thread fits a wide range of cinema and photo lenses with 95mm threading

What sets the Chroma VND/PL 2-5 apart
