Circular Polarizer

Performance

Expand your dynamic range, darken skies and control reflections. Optimized for superior light transmission and color neutrality, the Breakthrough Drop-In CPL features SCHOTT Superwhite B270® optical glass and MRC and nanotec® Nano Coatings to improve durability and reduce reflections. Precisely controlled by an oversized adjustment wheel, the Drop-In CPL is easy to fine-tune for the perfect shot.

The X4 CPL is the most color neutral CPL and features the lowest color cast of any CPL on the market. 

Compared to industry leading manufacturers of both drop-in and circular CPLs, the Canon Drop-In CPL has a very neutral color cast and an impressively flat transmission profile. 

Still the X4 CPL moderately outperforms the Canon Drop-In CPL in color cast, maintaining both a slightly more neutral performance and higher overall light transmission.

The X4 CPL features the highest light transmission performance, even when compared to “High Transmission” polarizers by B+W and Tiffen. 

Higher light transmission allows more light to pass through to the sensor which translates into faster shutter speeds, sharper images and the ability to use a lower ISO when shooting video. 

The Canon Drop-In CPL features an impressive average light transmission of 40.59%, which outperforms every filter manufacturer, except for the X2 and X4 CPL. 

X4 CPL average light transmission is 47.18%, while the X2 CPL has an average of43.86% which moderately outperforms the Canon Drop-In CPL.

Neutral Density

Performance

Our continual research and engineering deliver the most color neutral and sharpest ND filters on the market - perfect for long exposure sunsets, moving water or reducing the visibility of human subjects in urban environments. Made from SCHOTT Superwhite B270® optical glass with MRC and nanotec® coatings, the Breakthrough Drop-In ND comes in a variety of densities that accurately reduce light transmission to the optimal percentage.

Most of the neutral density filters on the market exhibit a strong blue or magenta cast. The higher the ND factor the more pronounced the color cast. 

The X4 ND has the most neutral color transmission throughout the visible range and well into infrared.

Canon does not currently offer solid ND drop-in filters, however,the X4 ND performance exceeds industry leading manufacturers such as Singh-Ray and B+W.  

The X4 ND is designed to reduce light to the optimal fractional transmittance at each density. An ideal 10-stop filter has a transmission value of 0.1% and with an average light transmission of 0.108%, the X4 ND is incredibly precise.

Dark CPL

The Drop-In X4 Dark CPL brings together the features of a CPL and ND into a single, versatile filter. Available from 1 to 10-Stops (0.3 - 3.0), the X4 Dark CPL has the optical accuracy and color-neutrality of the X4 ND and polarization can be controlled precisely by an oversized adjustment wheel.

VND

Dark VND

The Breakthrough Drop-In VND has the highest density range of any VND on the market without the dreaded X pattern. The X2 Drop-In VND has a density range of 2 to 9-stops and the X4 Drop-In VND has a range of 1.5 to 11-stops while maintaining a neutral color profile throughout the entire span. Made for higher light conditions, the Dark VND has an effective density range of 10 to 16-stops, creating one stop of overlap between the two filters. Previously, filter makers would make numerous VNDs with small density ranges in an attempt to limit the negative consequences of cross-polarization.

Clear

Due to the changes in light path and focal length caused by using a drop-in adapter, filter glass is necessary to retain the critical sharpness of the system. Drop-In Clear filters solve this issue while minimizing any loss of light transmission. The X2 and X4 Clear also serve the purpose of protecting the camera sensor from dust and debris when a filter isn’t needed.

Autumn & Night Sky

The Drop-In Autumn & Night Sky filter delivers incredible starlight definition during nighttime shoots by reducing the transmission of artifical light wavelengths. This reduction also enhances the autumn scenery and make leaves appear more vibrant by removing part of the orange spectrum that can make foliage appear muddled.

Infrared

Unlock the ethereal world outside of the visible spectrum with the Drop-In IR 720 filter designed for full-spectrum and IR converted cameras. Bright white foliage, a surreal glow and dark, dramatic skies are hallmarks of infrared photography that can be creatively explored with the IR 720.

In Black & White photography a circular polarizer is often stacked with colored filters in order to polarize colored light. However with the Drop-In Black & White Polarizers the photographer is able to achieve the same result with a single filter. Choose from Red, Green, Yellow or Orange CPL to give black and white scenes a dramatic feel.
