CineBloom Variable ND Filters, 67mm / 20%

Moment CineBloom Variable ND Filter (20% Diffusion) — The Bold Cinematic Look That Makes Travel Footage Unforgettable

The gist: A 2–5-stop Variable ND with 20% CineBloom diffusion — a more dramatic halation and dreamy highlight bloom that transforms travel footage into a distinctly cinematic aesthetic in-camera.

• Visible cinematic haze: 20% diffusion creates a pronounced halation around highlights and softens contrast — the look reads clearly as intentional cinematic style, not just a high-quality camera.
• Two effects, one filter: Combines a 2–5-stop adjustable ND (0.6–1.5 optical density) with bold diffusion, eliminating the need to stack a separate ND and diffusion filter on location.
• Motion blur without overexposure: The ND component allows 180° shutter-angle shooting in bright daylight, creating the smooth motion blur that separates professional travel footage from phone video.
• Three sizes (67/77/82mm): Matches the most common travel lens thread sizes; manufacturer recommends 16mm or longer lenses to avoid vignetting at this filter thickness.

PetaPixel covered the CineBloom VND at launch, describing the 20% diffusion as delivering “a bold, dreamy bloom that adds a cinematic haze to highlights” — the more expressive option for travel videographers who want a distinctive, recognizable visual style.

Best for: Travel videographers and film-look enthusiasts who want a strongly cinematic aesthetic — the kind of dreamy highlight bloom you see in festival short films and high-end travel content. Skip it if: You prefer a clean, natural look (use the 10%) or if you shoot primarily documentary-style footage where heavy diffusion can look distracting.
