Take full control of your exposure without sacrificing color fidelity or image quality. The Irix MMS True Color Vari ND 2-5 is built for filmmakers who need reliable, precise light reduction in fast-changing conditions. With smooth 2–5 stop control, it helps you dial in the perfect exposure, extend shutter speed for cinematic motion rendering, and stay creatively flexible in every scene. Laboratory testing confirms excellent optical performance, no measurable loss of sharpness or contrast, no added vignetting, and no X-pattern.

Magnetic mount – lightning-fast workflow on set Built specifically for lenses equipped with the Magnetic Mount System (MMS), the filter fits seamlessly into a fast, modern shooting workflow. Quick mounting and fast filter changes make a real difference on professional sets, where time, precision, and efficiency all matter.

Maintain true-to-life color with dependable consistency Designed to preserve a natural color balance throughout the variable ND range, the filter shows only a limited, negligible color temperature change. Testing also confirmed the absence of X-pattern artifacts, even at stronger settings, which is critical for filmmakers who need confidence throughout the entire adjustment range.

Smooth 2–5 stop control for perfect exposure The variable ND range gives you the flexibility to react instantly to changing light and fine-tune shutter speed for more cinematic motion blur. Whether you want to keep the aperture wide open in bright daylight or slow the shutter speed, this filter gives you the control you need to shape the image exactly the way you want.

Threadless, ultra-thin filter design The filter has no thread, and its slim 4.5 mm frame reinforces its compact, professional design. This makes it a practical tool for everyday production use, and combined with the ability to stack filters, allows you to save significant storage space.

No compromise in image quality Laboratory tests showed outstanding center-frame MTF performance, no measurable drop in sharpness or contrast, and no added vignetting. A hydrophobic coating helps repel water, grease, and contaminants for easier cleaning, while the scratch-resistant surface improves durability during intensive use, transport, and daily handling.

Combine them freely! Need to use your VariND filter with other accessories? No problem. The filter stacking feature allows you to combine filters when filming. You can also easily pair it with an Irix Matte Box IQ (sold separately) for even better results in your shots.
