Tokina 82mm Pro IRND 1.5

The Tokina PRO IRND 1.5 filter is a professional 82 mm combination filter for infrared and neutral density, designed for cinematography applications. This filter effectively manages light exposure while simultaneously eliminating infrared pollution, making it particularly valuable for high-end cinema cameras that often lack built-in low-pass or infrared cut filters. The Accu-ND technology provides a neutral density filter that precisely controls light transmission without compromising color fidelity, stabilizing color transmission across the entire visible spectrum to ensure authentic color reproduction. In a round design, this 82 mm filter features neutral density coating on both sides of the glass, forming a highly precise neutral filter. The approach utilizes infrared suppression rather than cutting to eliminate infrared pollution, controlling infrared up to 1200 nanometers and minimizing unwanted color shifts that typically require constant white balance adjustments. This makes the filter suitable for professional cameramen and photography enthusiasts who need consistent color performance and reliable light control. The filter construction ensures durability and long-term performance with precise optical glass that maintains image quality under various lighting conditions. The 82 mm thread size ensures compatibility with a wide range of professional lenses and offers flexibility for different shooting situations. The neutral density rating of 1.5 provides specific light reduction capabilities for controlled exposure management in bright conditions. This professional accessory enhances the cinematography workflow by reducing the need for post-processing color corrections while preserving optical clarity and precision across the entire visible light spectrum.
