Freewell Pro Hybrid Magnetic Filter — 1-10 Stop VND/CPL + ND32, Soft Gradient 1.2 (iPhone Case & Cage)

Overview

The Freewell Pro Hybrid Magnetic Filter is a flexible tool for photographers and creators who want finer control over exposure, reflections, and mood. Its 1-10 stop VND/CPL range lets you dial in light precisely, while the ND32 option provides a broad starting point for brighter scenes. The Soft Gradient 1.2 helps balance sky and ground without abrupt transitions, and the Black Glow Mist adds a subtle glow for atmosphere. All of these elements are designed to pair with Freewell’s magnetic iPhone case and cage for a secure, streamlined workflow.

Designed with real-world shoots in mind, this system supports a range of creative setups. You can mix the ND/CPL with individual filters from the Filter Island—ND32, Soft GND 1.2, or Black Glow Mist—to tailor the look without complicating your setup. Keep in mind that only one filter sits in the island at a time, which makes quick mood shifts easier on location.

Hybrid Versatility

The 2-in-1 design combines light control and polarization in a simple, intuitive way. Rotate the black ring to adjust the ND strength, then use the back red ring to fine-tune polarization. This separation helps you maintain natural color and contrast while managing reflections on non-metallic surfaces like glass, water, and foliage.

Build, Compatibility, and Quick Swaps

• 67mm Thread Compatibility: detach the VND/CPL to thread additional 67mm filters—expanding your options with other high-quality optics.
• Magnetic Quick Swap: engineered for Freewell’s magnetic iPhone case and cage, enabling fast, secure filter changes on set.

How it Helps in Real Life

Whether you’re capturing sweeping landscapes at dawn, urban scenes with reflective windows, or dynamic videos with moving water, this filter system is designed to support nuanced exposure and mood without demanding complex setup. The ND32 base broadens your setup for bright days, while the Soft Gradient 1.2 prevents harsh horizon lines. The Black Glow Mist option can add a gentle radiance that enhances textures and depth, especially in low-contrast scenes.

Usage Tips

• Start by selecting a mid-range setting on the VND/CPL, then fine-tune with the polarizing ring for desired reflections.
• Experiment with the Filter Island by swapping in ND32, Soft GND 1.2, or Black Glow Mist to shape mood without changing lenses.
