Finally!! the PERFECT Landscape Photography FILTERS?
🌟FREE 30 Minute Lightroom Essentials Course For YOU🌟
https://markdenneyphotography.com/freecourse
In this week’s episode, we discuss the perfect landscape photography filters? I’ve been using filters from early on throughout my journey with photography and one of the biggest issues I’ve had with them, is not the quality of the filters themselves, rather the time it takes to install them when you’re on-location. Lets face it, when conditions are rapidly unfolding before you, the last thing you want to do is mess about with filters, trying to strap them onto the end of your lens. And from my experience, when things aren’t easy to use, you don’t use them and when things are easy to use, you use them! I hope you enjoy this week’s video and as always thanks so much for watching! – Mark D.

What are these NISI filters called?? I am waiting for the release
How does one use graduated filter with these round filter set-ups?
The only filter I need is a polarizer.
Hello Mark, many tks for your tip with those new Nisi Filters. I have the traditional (square) Nisi filters, but I wonder if you with those new you can get/mount a ND filter when you want to dark only the upper part of the view. I guess not.
Looks very similar to KASE REVOLUTION FILTERS, but it’s magnetic function. I think this would be better.
Hello Mark, I too shoot with a GFX 100. My 23mm lens supports a 82mm thread. I have been in communication with Nisi and they did not recommend the round filter system to avoid vignetting. I was looking at making a purchase of a Nisi system soon. I have been looking at the 95mm swift system. What do you think about this strategy? Many thanks George
What I like about your channel is the focus on photography rather than gear. Just my opinion.
How do they work with graduated filters
Thank you Mark for the clip, just wonder is this ND10 has any color cast /tint ? on the photo if so can you edit in LR ?
I don’t think the time of day is what caused the magenta color – I have the same issue with my NiSi square filters even if I do not photograph in the evening/ early morning.
Great review! I use Kase magnetic and I see one issue with a push on. When I add a filter when the camera is set up on tripod pushing on could effect the position of the camera (move it). The magnetic does not cause movement.
Very interesting! I would assume there is no way to include a graduated ND in this set. So, if you purchased the NiSi Swift system, you would still need a separate system if you wanted to use a graduated ND, especially on a 1/3 – 2/3 horizon shot. Is that correct? Thanks!
Meh I Can’t Afford Them Filters lol
In my experience anything that easy to attach will also be too easy to knock off. Be nice if I’m wrong.
Far from a huge deal, but the link to your Fujifilm "Big Camera" brings up an older/different model than the GFX 100S that you have here in the video (top-right filter wheel is present, and yours has the display screen only). Wasn’t sure if you realized- and if it was me, I would rather know it 🙂 Thanks for the informative post; you definitely have some great & helpful works you put up
I love magnetic systems but I am not fond of ND variable.
I really like your image. Nice shot.
As a KASE magnetic system user, there are some issues I have. I bought adaptor rings, and magnetic lens covers (at great epense) for each of my main lenses, so as to have fast interchangeability of my filters. Works fine except (a) the lens hoods don’t fit with the adaptor rings fitted; (b) I’ve had the filters detach from the adaptor ring when stacked with two filter and a lens cap (carrying to a new composition), because of insufficiently strong magnetism, and (c) when I have the polariser and graduated filters stacked, it is really difficult to rotate one and not the other. I’d be interested to know how the Swift system is by comparison.
They have just copied Lee system.
I have the old NISI system with there adpter, your’re right pain in the you no what..They are true to color, I will say that..I Made the switch to freewell about three years ago, magnetic system. I love them, easy to use. 82 millimeter size, use the step down rings for my smaller lenses, love them. My only complaint with that system is I’m getting a little warm temp effect. What’s your opinion on these new NISI system
Hi Mark. No disrespect meant but… You started the video showing a graduated filter and I spent the entire time looking to see how they would deal with a graduation in a circular filter. The benefit of the older system you started with is that the long rectangular graduated filter can be slid in to place the graduation just where it’s needed. I don’t see how a circular system can ever beat that. What are your thoughts? You did kind of intimate that you would still be carrying the old system as well in the pouch you showed.
No link to the filters???
Looking for this system online – if they are out now, will someone please provide a link / much appreciated!
I have the square filters k and f conserp…very happy
How about kase magnetic filters? I saw the similar model in Kase store.
I guess you could use filter caps instead of the case, my concern with this system is the rubber sleves that hold the filter on wearing out or detreating over time, I think a filter with a magmetic system would be a much wiser investment
Just can’t do it. Trusting that system to not fall off over water or high in the mountains. I would be stressing out lol
Great photo! I would like to see the "shove the camera, lens with filter in and out of the bag test". My magnetic filters fall off, including the magnetic lens cap. Always have to watch I don’t lose them. Yes, I should pack them away everytime I pack away my camera, but it’s a pain.
Hey Mark, whats the thickness of these NISI filters and adapters?
Looks like my thread on filters are coming back ‘in’. 👍👍
Do you have a link to the swift filters?
Thanks, Mark. You’re absolutely right, filters can be a pain to use. Currently, I’m using Kase magnetic filters but will keep NISI filters in mind.
Does not solve the GRAD problem
Mark, you didn’t talk about how say the 82mm would work on 67mm lenses. Is there an adapter with step down ring?
I have a set of Formatt Hi-tech firecrest filters. They use the holder system. I chose that brand because they don’t have a color cast. I only use the ND filter and the polarizer now since I learned how to blend my exposures. One of my fears of using the magnetic kind is it falling off if you bump the lens hard. This system looks like it might be more secure.
Cool system, thanks for sharing. The one thing keeping me from jumping to the circular NDs for still photography is the graduated ND’s, how do you position a graduated HD horizontally like with a traditional filter holder? For example, shooting a sunset or mountain scape.
I went the Kase magnetic circular filter system. Simmilar principle.
Very well put together Mark. I am hoping that NiSi will at some point hop on the magnetic bandwagon for both circular and square filters. It really will be in their best interest. A lot of people using all kinds of filter brands are jumping ship to Kase for that reason.
That’s not to say that the NiSi lineup isn’t absolutely fantastic but as you say, it chews up so much time getting it all set up and in many light situations you only get a window of a few minutes. The tech is getting dated and speed is key
Hey Mark! Great video! So cool you used the photo as "Es Pont d’en Gil" in Menorca. Love it! <3
Do you get lens flare with multiple ND filters on?
Thanks for sharing Mark. I stopped using ND filters for pretty much the same reason. Usually just go with a CPL. But I do really like the result with the photo you shared so maybe its time to looks at this again. Safe travels.
Over $900 for a filter kit. 🤨
Any update if this is available to buy now?
Cokins were easy to use although you needed the adapter… like they all do
I love the system,I think I,d miss not being able to use grad filters
Hey thanks for the video mark ! How do the filters do with vignetting ? That’s been a huge issue with filters in the past
Hey Mark, I have a question regarding the graduated filters that you said you don’t use. I totally agree with you that they are not the best in terms of practicalities. So if you shoot with multiple exposures and blend them, you kind of replace the graduated filters, no? Or am I wrong to think like that? Great video and great channel. Thank you so much.
Will these filters vignette on my 14-30mm nikkor z lens?
I used to use NISI filters, but when they got a name for themselves, the price went way up on par with Lee and other big name brands. I moved to Haida because I wasn’t happy with the colour cast of the other filters and even when stacked I find little to no colour cast as for convenience yes those NISI filters look the business but I’m not going to change my lenses anytime this decade to all Nikon Z mount glass for my Z8, so I’ll be sticking with my Nano pro Haida M150 filters that fit my Nikon 14-24mm f2.8 g and the adapter for the 77mm thread other lenses.
I went the Kase Revolution route (magnetic filters). Really happy with them. Much more practical than the screw on version.
