More about the JetMag x1–5 Stop JetMag Pro VND
NiSi’s most anticipated filter has arrived. Their legendary 1-5 Stop True Colour Variable ND is now available for JetMag Pro. Like sunglasses for your lens, the VND darkens the image by 1-5 stops. An indispensable tool in any videographers toolkit, NiSi's True Colour VND is widely regarded as the best VND in the world.
The Core of the JetMag System: 1–5 Stop JetMag Pro VND (82MAG)
The heart of every kit is the NiSi JetMag Pro 1–5 Stop Variable ND. With a density range from ND2 to ND32, it gives you control over 1–5 stops of light—ideal for controlling shutter speed, maintaining wide apertures, or dialing in exposure during video shoots.
Key features include
- True Color technology: No tints. No shifts. Just natural, consistent color across the ND range.
- Built-in hard stops at 1 and 5 stops, ensuring smooth, repeatable operation and preventing over-rotation.
- No X-patterns or cross-polarization, which means zero compromise on image quality—even at extreme settings.
- Dual-sided stop markings, so you can see your ND level whether handheld or on a rig.
- Detachable control lever and polarization adjustment: Once you’ve set your ND strength, rotate the entire filter to cut glare and enhance contrast, just like a built-in CPL.
- Magnetic mount with locking system: Fast, tool-free attachment with a rock-solid lock that keeps your filter secure, even in tough conditions.
Available now in 82MAG, it’s fully compatible with JetMag Pro’s magnetic adapter rings. And for those using larger lenses—95MAG is coming soon.

More about the True Colour VND
The Most Flexible Neutral Density Filter
The NiSi True Color Variable ND provides the convenience of a filter that can be used in multiple situations, an all-in-one filter. Its primary purpose is to reduce the amount of light entering the camera. While a fixed ND reduces a fixed amount of light, this variable ND can reduce the light from 1 to 5 stops, making it the perfect ND for various shooting conditions and scenes.
Easily adjust the filter to control the amount of light entering the camera by rotating the filter's front ring without affecting the image's color or sharpness.
The True Color Variable ND is perfect for photographers shooting in situations where there is changing or shifting light, and control of the shutter speed for longer exposures or shallower depth of field is a priority. For video production, the frictionless rotating elements ensure that desired frame rates or depth of field can be easily and quickly adjusted without any vibration or shake being introduced into the videos.
The Benefit of True Color
We designed the NiSi True Color VARIO-ND to produce true-to-life, accurate colors with no noticeable color shifting or color cast often seen with other Variable ND filters. The need for post-processing time for color correction is reduced, with white balance and color temperature appearing truly neutral - ensuring the best possible image quality for both video and still photography!
Introducing JetMag Pro - NiSi's Best Filter System Ever
This new magnetic system from NiSi is designed to make the use of filters easier and faster than ever, empowering you to focus on what matters; light and storytelling. Jetmag offers NiSi's tried and trusted optical performance in a new format that we guarantee you'll love, with a massive range of their most popular filters.
Main Features
- Fast & Reliable Patented Locking Mechanism: JetMag has a unique bayonet style locking mechanism that gives you peace of mind that filters can't fall off. Simply mount the filter and rotate it to the locked position. The filters are locked when the side handles/tabs are lined up, making it easy to see from any angle or even to feel in the dark.
- Ultra-Thin = No Vignetting: Jetmag filters are insanely thin; Just 3mm per filter. Say goodbye to vignetting issues on wide angles. Not only are they super thin, but the filters are also oversized - the 82mm filters are actually 92mm wide, which also gives much-needed clearance on wide angle lenses. You can stack up to 3 Jetmag filters at 16mm without any vignetting. Browse the product images to see the vignetting samples for the most popular wide angle lenses.
- Easy Identification and Handling: Each type of filter (e.g. ND, Mist, CPL) has a colour-coded handle, making it quick and easy to identify.
- Full Spectrum ND Technology: The Jetmag ND filters feature the latest FSND tech, which ensures perfect filtering of UV and IR light for the most accurate colour possible.
- Size Versatility: Jetmag will be available in 3 sizes, with magnetic adapter rings to step to the sizes in between. This means you only need one size to cover all your lenses, making it economic to filter multiple lenses. The three sizes are 95mm, 82mm and 58mm
- Standard Kits and Individual Components: At launch, NiSi is offering 6x different kits aimed at a variety of photography and filmmaking needs. There is also a massive range of individual components, allowing you to build your own kit to suit your specific needs.
