Works exactly as described, fits my camera perfectly. not sure how hard the cut-off is at 680nm, didn't see a chart in the packaging but it would be nice to know exactly what wavelengths it blocks & how sharp the cutoff is. thats the only minor quibble. otherwise its great!
Zomei Infrared IR Filter 680-950nm for DSLR Lenses
Enhance your DSLR photography with Zomei Infrared IR Filters available in 680nm to 950nm wavelengths. Fits lenses from 37mm to 77mm sizes.
- Double-thread design for easy mounting
- Different filters tailored for indoor/outdoor and light conditions
Infrared Photography Essentials
Zomei IR Filters provide photographers with specialized lenses to capture infrared light, expanding creative possibilities with DSLR cameras.
Choose from wavelengths 680nm to 950nm to match your shooting environment, whether indoor shadows or bright outdoor scenes.
Versatile Fit for Multiple Lens Sizes
The filters are designed with a double-thread construction to fit various lens diameters ranging from 37mm to 77mm and beyond.
This compatibility ensures you can select the right filter to fit your DSLR lens securely and easily.
Tailored Lighting Performance
Filters with 680nm, 720nm, and 760nm wavelengths are ideal for indoor or weak light.
Filters of 850nm and 950nm excel under outdoor or strong light conditions, providing sharper infrared imaging results.
Practical Usage Considerations
Custom white balance settings on your camera are necessary to optimize image capture with these IR filters.
Due to longer exposure times, using a tripod and cable release is recommended to prevent image shake.
- Set custom white balance per camera manual
- Use tripod and cable release for stability
Managing Common IR Challenges
Hotspots from internal reflections can occur when using infrared filters.
Adjusting aperture or shooting angle away from bright lights helps minimize these hotspots for cleaner shots.
- Change aperture to reduce hotspots
- Avoid bright light glare angles
Compatibility and Safety
These filters are free from high-concern chemicals, supporting safer photography usage.
The exposure meter adjusts based on visible light and may sometimes miscalculate exposure due to infrared differences.

Discussion
Bought for a gen2+ pvs14 to block light pollution. worked really well, just needed a 30mm adaptor to put it on the objective lens.
Arrived today right on time . My parcel was well wrapped and secure this item arrived here in perfect condition . Ive tested it out and this performs very very well . (better than some of the others ive tried )
