While capturing the perfect shot, the Breakthrough Photography X2 ND Traction Filter, with its high-quality AGC glass from Japan, sets the benchmark for professional photographers worldwide. This 82mm X2 ND Traction Filter, available in 3-stop or 6-stop variants, is designed with a weather-sealed traction frame, making the application and removal of filters a breeze. The X2 ND filter's superior optical performance is enhanced by its state-of-the-art multi-resistant coating (MRC-8). This unique feature includes four layers of advanced MRC applied to each side of the optical disk, totaling eight MRC layers. These coatings are structurally harder than the glass itself, enhancing the durability of the optical surfaces by increasing scratch resistance. The X2 ND filter is not just incredibly durable but also meticulously designed. Each filter is CNC machined with narrow tolerances and undergoes a strict quality control process, ensuring a low threshold for defects. The result is a filter built to last at least 25 years, if not beyond a human lifetime. The X2 ND filter features a 3.5mm ultra-slim double-threaded Traction frame profile, designed to eliminate vignetting on wide-angle full-frame setups. This frame width has been carefully chosen based on tests to ensure that lens caps stay on securely, while also preventing any vignetting. The X2's 3.5mm frame is laser engraved, ensuring the lettering remains intact even after consistent use. Each X2 Traction frame also comes with a unique serial number, which is linked to your 25 Year Ironclad Guarantee, allowing for efficient tracking and recording of any issues, contributing to future product design. For photographers seeking weather-sealed durability, the X2 ND filter is an ideal choice. As recommended by Canon, Nikon, and Sony, protective filters are essential for maintaining the lens's out-of-the-box optical performance and completing a lens weather-seal. Without a filter, the lens is not dust or water resistant. With the X2 ND filter, you can ensure your lens remains protected and performs optimally for years to come.
