big time! i use the Pocket4k and it has pretty bad IR issues. If i want to use this system with an IR cut on top of full strength, I have to stack 3 filter. Then if I want to use Glimmer glass on top of all that then the system becomes unusuable unfortunately.
@@leedonohue not sure what glimmer glass is but I can see the system work well with just an IR Filter which Nisi offers as well. But the wide angle will still be an issue
@@damiencooper glimmer glass is just like a pro mist, just a bit different. yea the system with 3 filters works just fine (except wide angles like you already mentioned) when i use the system on my sony its great because i dont need the ir cut. its just when i use the pocket and the situation comes along where i need to stack 4 filter that i run into trouble. nisi makes GREAT IRNDs but for the cicular ones they only come in very limited strengths, very very annoying.
Just get the filters in a larger diameter and use a step up ring so the vignetting disappears. Depending on how many filters you stack, 82mm should clear 77mm threaded lenses already.
@@damiencooper Depends on the barrel design I believe. I was referring to the Canon AF lens you used. Many cine lenses with such large filter threads have a funnel like design where screw-on filters shouldn't vignette. But it depends on the individual lens I guess. Anyway, looks like a good set of filters.
I bought the Nisi 1-5, thanks. I used your link. I had tried the Mieke drop in adapter and loved the effect but my AUTOFOCUS didn't work as well with it (on my Canon R5C) - which I tested 3 times just to be sure - and so I sent it back and got the Nisi. It initially seems "harder" than the Mieke to get the sky and ground to look good at the same time but it's not an apples to apples comparison to Mieke because it's a different day. Otherwise, I'll see how I fare tomorrow with a real shoot... Thanks again and congrats with Nalvany - I absolutely LOVED that film. Bravo.
I wish they would make IRND 32 o 64 for that kit in the future as well. In situations where i dont need variable ND, a push-on fixed IRND would be killer idea. ND16 is bit weak for most situations.
HI! thanks for making this video! just have one question => Is there IR Pollution at the 9th stop? => after using ND 1-9 plus an IR-cut filter, is there a sharpness loss?
Hi, great video. Thanks for all the information. I have one question, can you stack two ND16 together? I was wondering whether is it a good idea if I were to take long exposure picture with this nisi swift system. Instead of buying a 15stop filter in near future
What if I already own a mist filter ? For example the black mist 1/4 ( 82 mm ) … then what am I supposed to do with it ? Don’t really need another one - can I stack those 1-9 NiSi on top of my own ? 🧐
Anybody know where I can buy an extra little rod that that turns the filter? It always comes loose and I am sure one day I will lose it. They should give 2 rods bc they are pretty flimsy and get loos easily.. Thanks..
Hi! Great video as always! I have both cameras and I use the Canon EF to RF VND adapter (1.5-9 stops) on the R5C since I mainly use EF glasses. I assume this system is great working with RF glasses, but you demo with EF (the24-70 f2.8) glass. Any reason you opt for this system instead of the Canon VND adapter? My other question is, to use the system with 77mm and 82mm lenses, do you need to buy the whole package in both thread sizes? Thank you for the video!
Hey, I only demonstrated this with EF glass. The skating sequence was entirely shot on RF. I mainly use the C70 which already has ND filters. When using the R5C I also mostly use the drop in VND with EF glass. But the NISI filter is the highest quality filter in my opinion
Hey Damien, danke für dein Review! Wie ist es mit der lens cap - wenn ich die entferne, zieht es dann automatisch den ND16-Filter/jeden weiteren Filter mit ab, oder funktioniert das ohne Probleme? ;)
Hi I really enjoy your videos, wanted to ask if you can do a tutorial on how you get those amazing colors with Canon R5C or Canon C70 I have both cameras but somehow can’t get my image to look like yours.
Thanks. Appreciate it. Honestly: most is via our custom canon Luts (link in the description). I use the original conversion luts from canon and then add our luts. The rest is just a little tweaking. But I definitely can do another video on it. I’ll also do two videos on all my settings and custom buttons of both cameras very soon (already filmed)
@@damiencooper yeah i didn't end up getting the k2, everyone i asked about it seeemed to favor the Nisi... currently using the Tilta Mirage but the color shift's awful. nice being able to remotely change it, like w gimbal work, and it's not a tough change in post, *most* of the time, but i'd give anything to not have to worry about it. so i'll prob give this a shot the next time it's on sale.thx for th vid!
@@damiencooper dude i've been commenting the same thing in virtually 100 ppl's channels and you're the first to tell me about this, you're a lifesaver, thx so much. i guess it is sorta new? since I'll need a 4 stop nd as well at the very least, the kit w the mist and polarizer looks great, if i can buy it once and not have to keep trying new filters then 700 stings but it's a lot of gear. nisi really didn't seem to put $ into creator mktg re it, unless the actual aunch is yet to be, bc i had no idea it existed. thx again, looks like you have a lotta informative vids, looking fwd to checkin em out
Hey brother, what is the adapter ring for? They don’t sell it for Europe so I don’t have the choice. I can only get the filters without the adapter ring
Do you also struggle with ND filters?

Nice Review. I struggle between the nisi c5 mattebox and the nisi swift System. The mattebox looks cooler but we cant use 3 Filters at the same time.
@@michael.kronsteiner will probably do a review on that one too soon!
the Michael Bay style shot at 0:20 is amazing !
If you don't want vignetting always get 95mm filters. It's bigger but way smaller than putting a filter box in front of your lenses.
Just get the filters in a larger diameter and use a step up ring so the vignetting disappears. Depending on how many filters you stack, 82mm should clear 77mm threaded lenses already.
Yeah, good idea. Doesn‘t work for 82mm and 95mm though

The NiSi true colour ND has so much polarisation. Why has no reviewer ever mentioned this???
I wish they would make IRND 32 o 64 for that kit in the future as well.
In situations where i dont need variable ND, a push-on fixed IRND would be killer idea. ND16 is bit weak for most situations.
That’s true…
Ser bra ut, men priset...damn!
Can you use the filters with a clamp on mattebox?
I decided to go with k&f 3-10. No color cast, details loss and it vignette shows at 10 stops, but no at 8 stops 😁
Great review!! Totally sold on the nisi. What stop do you think you would need to shoot at f1.05 on apcs in daylight?
Lenses with thread filter below 67mm are often forgotten!!
No Adapter Ring 55mm, 52mm, 50mm..to 67mm.
HI! thanks for making this video! just have one question
=> Is there IR Pollution at the 9th stop?
=> after using ND 1-9 plus an IR-cut filter, is there a sharpness loss?
Love the review and the skating footage speaks for it all! I like my Polar Pro, but do I love it??? Not sure now. Might need to try some NISI. 🤘
It’s the best that I have tested when it comes to image quality in my opinion
Great video! It might just be me, but is there a way to screw in the filter so the ND strength markings are at the top instead of the bottom or side?
You CAN avoid vignetting if you step up to a larger filter.
Well, it’s hard to step up from the 28-70 🙈
But yeah, you’re right
Why no one talking about the cpl for the swift system?
What size would i need for my Sigma 24mm 1.4 Art Lens?
Hi, great video. Thanks for all the information. I have one question, can you stack two ND16 together? I was wondering whether is it a good idea if I were to take long exposure picture with this nisi swift system. Instead of buying a 15stop filter in near future
If you buy bigger filter tread than of the lens the vignetting dissapears?
might get a bit better actually. But the adapter ring will also vignette. So I'm not sure
Good point. I am pretty sure that would solve the issue.
Hello Damian. Does the add-on ND filter have front threads? I can’t seem to tell from photos and the websites
What if I already own a mist filter ? For example the black mist 1/4 ( 82 mm ) … then what am I supposed to do with it ? Don’t really need another one - can I stack those 1-9 NiSi on top of my own ? 🧐
Yes. Just use the mist as base, add the 1-5 and then the ND16.
You can also buy the ND16 solo
@@damiencooper thank you! 👏🏻🫵🏻☝🏻
@@damiencooper where i can buy solo nd16?
If you already have the 1-5 filter, can you get just the add on? The one you have in the description is the whole kit
Yeah. You can get just the kit without the 1-5, just the mist, just the ND, just a IR Cut. Everything can be acquired separately
Check Freewell K2 True Color VND
Hey man thank you for this video . Is there an nd filter with a polarize from nisi ?
Can you attach the mist filter on the lens without the nd on first?
Anybody know where I can buy an extra little rod that that turns the filter? It always comes loose and I am sure one day I will lose it. They should give 2 rods bc they are pretty flimsy and get loos easily.. Thanks..
Can i use instead of black mist 1/4 lets say a Glimerglass 1 from tiffen? Or a CPL filter?
