Syrp Variable Neutral Density Filter vignetting?

4 years 8 months ago #655157 by Janet Schlage
Anyone try one of these filters out?  At larger settings I get horrible vignetting.  I have to pull it back 1-2 stops to get clear of this.  Making the not a 5 stop ND filter but a 4 stop.

Have you experienced the same?

How wide of a lens are you using?  I've heard wider lenses have issues with these sort of variable ND's.

I picked up one of those Polar Pro Peter McKinnon ND's.  Pricey, but usable range through out.

Isn't a ND filter basically 2 polarized filters spun in opposite direction?

+1 Might be a wide angle issue. But then again, some filters just aren't that good. Not sure about this one.  I thought these guys build time lapse gear?  Didn't know they built filters.

Want, but the price is a bit high.  Going to see what goes on sale with them this holiday season.

Why would using a wide angle lens have any effect when using these sort of filters?
