The AND-50S-01 is a 50 x 50 mm Optical Glass Neutral Density Filter, specifically designed for use in the visible light spectrum, spanning from 400 to 700nm. This filter is unmounted, offering users the flexibility to integrate it into their existing optical systems.
This filter is produced by OptoSigma, a renowned vendor known for its high-quality optical elements. The catalog number for this item is AND-50S-01, and it can be found on their official website, where it is currently in stock.
The filter is of the Neutral Density type, which means it reduces the intensity of all wavelengths of light equally, resulting in a uniformly darkened image. This is particularly useful in photography and cinematography when looking to achieve specific depth-of-field or motion blur effects.
The filter is made from UVFS Mal- 1965, a material specifically chosen for its optical properties. It has a base shape of Rectangular, making it suitable for use in systems where a linear reduction of light is required.
The geometry of the filter includes dimensions of 50mm in both length and width, with a thickness of 2mm. This ensures the filter is robust and can withstand typical handling during integration into optical systems.
The filter features a coating on both the front and back surfaces, identified as 'opt and-01'. This coating is designed to enhance the filter's performance and durability, providing improved light absorption and resistance to environmental factors.
The shape of the filter is Thin Lens, indicating that it is designed to minimize optical aberrations and distortions, ensuring the highest quality output from your optical system.
