## Overview

The Bower FN86 Variable Neutral Density Filter is an 86mm filter designed to enhance your photography by allowing for high ISO use in bright conditions, enabling selective focus and motion blur, and supporting wide apertures. It comes with a limited lifetime manufacturer warranty, ensuring durability and reliability for all your creative endeavors.

## Description

The Variable Neutral Density Filter, compatible with all analog and digital camera lenses with the popular 86mm filter size, gives you the ability to use fast film in bright outdoor conditions. ND, or neutral density, filters allow you to do a number of things that would otherwise be impossible. By reducing the amount of light, you can record movement in subjects such as waterfalls, clouds, cars, etc. You can also drop your aperture to allow a wider focus, helping separate subjects from their background. This filter offers a range of up to 8 stops of light.

    I’ll give it a chance for now
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2019*

Sometimes I read reviews about the “engineers” that buy products and complain about how something is not working to spec, but I’ll buy it anyway. This was one of those itemsI took a base photo with my Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art that has an 86mm filter size (I also have step up rings for my 35mm lens so I can use it for that too) and it was at ISO 100, f/1.8, 1/8000 sec. Then I placed the filter on and cranked it all the way to the stopper and got the dreaded ND X pattern. Backing off from that I was then at 1/320 sec., a nice 4 2/3 stops of light, which should be enough for portraiture. Yes, my lights can handle HSS, but sometimes you want a little motion blur before strobing your subject.The photo of my dog was taken using a speedlight and edited in Lightroom (1/125 sec. l, f/1.4, ISO 100 in full sun).What I like: stops at either end of the rotation, the color cast doesn’t seem too bad, not bad for the price if I decide to keep it.What I don’t like: the X, not getting a full 8 stops of light (which should have been 1/30 sec.), doesn’t come in hard case, rather a soft case with the same material on the inside as on the outside.

    Inexpensive Variable ND Filter that Suits My Needs
  

*by A***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2018*

An affordable fader/variable ND filter! This 77mm filter is on my 17-50mm Sigma and it preforms very well. Just like my 95mm Bower, the action is smooth for fading. The other feature I really like is that it has a stop built into the MIN and MAX so you cant move past the filters range causing image issues.Going into buying this, I knew shooting at a wide angle (17mm) and a high ND stop (8-10) that there was the potential for the "X" pattern. And while it does happen, it isnt a deal breaker for me. The overall quality of the shots and video are still very good. Eventually, I will buy a 10-stop ND so if needed I can shoot at 17mm and stop my camera down and not have the pattern. For now, this filter is great for my shooting/video needs.Pros:Smooth fadingMin/Max stopAffordableFeels well builtCons:Wide Angle lenses may suffer from "X" pattern issues - this is likely with any Variable/Fader ND thoughSlight color shift to cooler side

    Good variable ND filter for the price
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2017*

If you're looking for ultimate IQ or professional results then you may want to get something a little better but for my casual video use I think it's a good performing ND filter for the money. I can now shoot wide open at the optimal shutter speeds for that cinematic look for video. The stiffness in adjusting the filter is just the right amount so it's not too hard or too loose that it'll turn on its own. The only issue is that at max or near max there's heavy vignetting and a black X across the image. It's a common issue on these variable ND filters so it's not really a fault of this particular brand/model.
