Landscape Photography has become an immensely popular hobby over the last 10 years and it has spawned countless new manufacturers in the process. In just a few short years, NiSi have positioned themselves shoulder-to-shoulder with the world’s very best manufacturers of photographic filter systems. They have done so by offering incredible optical quality at competitive prices. NiSi’s holder systems are simple, solid and functional and they are the only brand that offers pro-glass graduated ND’s as their standard filter range.
The NiSi 100mm V6 Starter Kit is the perfect introduction for anyone looking to get into graduated filter systems and offers incredible value for money. This kit will allow you to create long exposures while at the same time balancing the exposure between land and sky on any lens with a 82mm, 77mm, 72mm or 67mm thread. You can also use the circular polariser (included) in conjunction with up to three 100mm filters thanks to the clever design of the V6 Pro holder. It includes a 100x150 system filter pouch to keep everything safe, clean and easily accessible as well as a cloth, eraser and blower for easy maintenance of your filters.
Purchasing everything in this kit individually will cost around R12 000, thus offering a saving of about R2 000.

We have a no-nonsense approach. If a product breaks due to a manufacturer defect, we will replace it without asking any questions. If we have any reason to believe that the product was put through unreasonably heavy usage, we will have to follow the manufacturer's standard warranty procedure.
Find more info on proper care and use for each brand below.
The manufacturer offers a 10-year limited warranty on all products and we extend that warranty to our customers. Please read the below very carefully, so you understand your position when something breaks or doesn’t work ideally anymore.
It is critical to understand that this warranty only applies to factory faults and not to standard wear and tear. Tripods are subject to a lot of gray areas in this regard as tripods used outdoors, particularly in sand and sea water, are subjected to extreme wear and tear. We will e.g. replace the affected part of your tripod if a carbon tube snaps or cracks without much pressure applied to it or if the apex breaks. We will not replace your tripod or the affected part if e.g. a joint locks up due to sand or salt build up or if a hinge becomes corroded or stiff/floppy and unserviceable due to corrosion or salt build up. In sum, if we see that you took good care of your tripod and something went wrong, we will go out of our way to fix or replace it for you. If we see that you dragged it through the mud (literally or metaphorically), then we are unlikely to fix/replace it for you. How you handle your tripod and take care of it, is all the difference between 3- or 20 years of service. The best of tripods will not last longer than 2/3 years if used regularly in the sea, INCORRECTLY, and never serviced. Always make sure to extend the lowest leg section first, so you keep the joints out of the water/sand. Always rinse with freshwater after use in the sea, wipe down with a wet cloth, leave extended to dry and ENSURE YOU KEEP THE HEAD AND APEX DRY. If your tripod’s joints start feeling sandy/gritty, open them up, give them a proper clean and lubrication and fine-tune the tension on the joints.
If travelling on dirt roads, ensure that your tripod is in its carry-bag when not in use.
Your tripod will not take care of itself – it is up to you to do so. All our tripods ship with an info-sheet on taking care of your tripod. We also offer a full tripod disassembly and service for R1000, including shipping both ways.

The NiSi ND kits offer great value for money compared to purchasing the filters individually. This kit contains a 100x100mm 3- and 6-stop IRND as well as a 4-filter soft pouch, with a total value of R7 197. Please note that this kit does not include a holder system.
NiSi is renowned as one of the world's top manufacturers of completely colour-neutral and vignette-free ND filters. Made from H-K9L optical pro glass, it allows for optimal light transmission to produce sharp and contrast-rich images with true-to-life colour.
Solid neutral density filters lengthen exposure by cutting out a specific amount of light. This is very useful for creative purposes, whether you want to blur a wave, waterfall, leopard or a street scene.They are available in many different densities, ranging from 2 to 20 stops, but the most popular are 3-, 6- and 10-stops. Please read the bullet points below to understand the purpose of each.
3-Stop | 0.9- This filter is used to add a slight blur to water before the sun has set or after it has risen. At f/16 and ISO100, it is impossible to achieve a slow enough shutter speed to get the ideal amount of blur in the waves while the sun is up. Three stops of darkening will normally allow a shutter speed of 1/10s to 1/2s during this golden sunlight phase, producing soft lines in the waves.
6-Stop | 1.8- This filter serves the same purpose as the 10-stop, but it is better suited for sunset and sunrise. When the sun is close to setting or rising, a 10-stop ND will require a very long shutter speed at f/11-16 and ISO100 to produce the correct exposure - often as much as 5-10 minutes. A 6-stop ND is thus much more suited for capturing long exposures of 30-60s around sunset and sunrise.
10-Stop | 3.0 - This filter is used primarily for blurring the sea to a flat mist and for blurring clouds into abstract lines. It can also be used to remove traffic and people from urban scenes by blurring the moving elements. At f/11-16 and ISO100, it usually produces a shutter speed of 20-30s in the early morning or late afternoon with strong sunlight. Example - Image #5
15-Stop | 4.5- This filter is serious long exposure territory and will produce exposures times of 1-4 minutes in peak daylight and 5-30 minutes during golden hour.
IR Blocking- This filter blocks out unwanted Infra-red light that can cause strange colours in undesired areas and rob images of critical shadow-contrast.
Nano Coating- This filter features a super tough scratch-resistant and hydrophobic nano-coating that ensures that it lasts for years. It also ensures that any rain or spray from the ocean beads properly and is easy to wipe off so you can continue shooting the sunset.

At f/16 and ISO100, it is impossible to achieve a slow enough shutter speed to get the ideal amount of blur in the waves while the sun is up. Three stops of darkening will normally allow a shutter speed of 1/10s to 1/2s during this golden sunlight phase, producing soft lines in the waves.
6-Stop | 1.8- This filter serves the same purpose as the 10-stop, but it is better suited for sunset and sunrise. When the sun is close to setting or rising, a 10-stop ND will require a very long shutter speed at f/11-16 and ISO100 to produce the correct exposure - often as much as 5-10 minutes. A 6-stop ND is thus much more suited for capturing long exposures of 30-60s around sunset and sunrise.
10-Stop | 3.0 - This filter is used primarily for blurring the sea to a flat mist and for blurring clouds into abstract lines. It can also be used to remove traffic and people from urban scenes by blurring the moving elements. At f/11-16 and ISO100, it usually produces a shutter speed of 20-30s in the early morning or late afternoon with strong sunlight. Example - Image #5
15-Stop | 4.5- This filter is serious long exposure territory and will produce exposures times of 1-4 minutes in peak daylight and 5-30 minutes during golden hour.
IR Blocking- This filter blocks out unwanted Infra-red light that can cause strange colours in undesired areas and rob images of critical shadow-contrast.
Nano Coating- This filter features a super tough scratch-resistant and hydrophobic nano-coating that ensures that it lasts for years. It also ensures that any rain or spray from the ocean beads properly and is easy to wipe off so you can continue shooting the sunset.

We have a no-nonsense approach. If a product breaks due to a manufacturer defect, we will replace it without asking any questions. If we have any reason to believe that the product was put through unreasonably heavy usage, we will have to follow the manufacturer's standard warranty procedure.
Find more info on proper care and use for each brand below.
The manufacturer offers a 10-year limited warranty on all products and we extend that warranty to our customers. Please read the below very carefully, so you understand your position when something breaks or doesn’t work ideally anymore.
It is critical to understand that this warranty only applies to factory faults and not to standard wear and tear. Tripods are subject to a lot of gray areas in this regard as tripods used outdoors, particularly in sand and sea water, are subjected to extreme wear and tear. We will e.g. replace the affected part of your tripod if a carbon tube snaps or cracks without much pressure applied to it or if the apex breaks. We will not replace your tripod or the affected part if e.g. a joint locks up due to sand or salt build up or if a hinge becomes corroded or stiff/floppy and unserviceable due to corrosion or salt build up. In sum, if we see that you took good care of your tripod and something went wrong, we will go out of our way to fix or replace it for you. If we see that you dragged it through the mud (literally or metaphorically), then we are unlikely to fix/replace it for you. How you handle your tripod and take care of it, is all the difference between 3- or 20 years of service. The best of tripods will not last longer than 2/3 years if used regularly in the sea, INCORRECTLY, and never serviced. Always make sure to extend the lowest leg section first, so you keep the joints out of the water/sand. Always rinse with freshwater after use in the sea, wipe down with a wet cloth, leave extended to dry and ENSURE YOU KEEP THE HEAD AND APEX DRY. If your tripod’s joints start feeling sandy/gritty, open them up, give them a proper clean and lubrication and fine-tune the tension on the joints.
If travelling on dirt roads, ensure that your tripod is in its carry-bag when not in use.
Your tripod will not take care of itself – it is up to you to do so. All our tripods ship with an info-sheet on taking care of your tripod. We also offer a full tripod disassembly and service for R1000, including shipping both ways.

This is a special limited edition version of the V5 Pro Landscape Enhance system, featuring a unique matte black + silver finish. Only 199 were made and only 5 are available in South Africa.
The NiSi V5 Pro holder kit is so much more than just a filter holder and offers incredible value for money. This kit includes the following -
V5 Pro Filter Holder
Landscape Enhanced Nano Coated Circular Polariser
82mm Primary Adapter Ring
77-82mmmm + 72-82mmmm + 67-82mmmm Step-up Rings
PU Leather Storage Case
Revolutionary Function- The core of the V5 system is an 82mm adapter ring with a thread on the front that accepts an 86mm polariser. This ring features two cogs on the side that rotate the polariser via an internal gear mechanism, allowing quick and easy rotation of the polariser that is independent from the rest of the filters in the holder. The filter holder attaches to the front of the ring via a simple tensioned safety-catch. This ring attaches directly to any lens with an 82mm thread or to any other lens with ultra-thin 82mm step rings. This kit includes 77mm, 72m and 67mm step rings and other sizes are available at R399.00 each. This kit is all that you need to be able to use your NiSi 100mm filters in conjunction with the included polariser on lenses with an 82mm, 77mm, 72mm or 67mm thread.
Quality Manufacturing and Optimal Design- The V5 Pro holder is CNC-machined from aviation grade aluminium and all components are designed to keep the holder as close to the lens as possible in order to avoid seeing the edges of the holder in the image frame. This holder allows use of up to three filters and a polariser at 16mm without seeing the holder in the frame. That is with a step-ring attached and even with the holder at a slight angle.
Optimal Filter Contact- The V5 Pro holder grips filters from the sides with a soft sure-grip cushion, avoiding front- and back contact with the filter-surface that will scratch it. The holder offers the perfect amount of grip from the moment you take it out of the box and it doesn't fade over time.
Turning the Polariser- The 82mm primary ringfeatures two rotating wheels on the sides, which rotate the polariser via an internal gear mechanism. This clever features allows you to set the polariser to the desired angle without having to lean around the camera in an attempt to rotate the polariser.
Storage and Protection- Included with the kit is a hard case wrapped in PU leather for easy and safe storage of the holder and all it's components.
Available Versions - The V5 Pro Kit is available with a standard and a landscape enhanced polarising filter. The enhanced version of the polariser provides a stronger polarising effect and a cool tone, thus eliminating more glare and reflections, saturating colours better and delivering more crisp whites in water and clouds. Choosing one of the two simply comes down to personal choice.

We have a no-nonsense approach. If a product breaks due to a manufacturer defect, we will replace it without asking any questions. If we have any reason to believe that the product was put through unreasonably heavy usage, we will have to follow the manufacturer's standard warranty procedure.
Find more info on proper care and use for each brand below.
The manufacturer offers a 10-year limited warranty on all products and we extend that warranty to our customers. Please read the below very carefully, so you understand your position when something breaks or doesn’t work ideally anymore.
It is critical to understand that this warranty only applies to factory faults and not to standard wear and tear. Tripods are subject to a lot of gray areas in this regard as tripods used outdoors, particularly in sand and sea water, are subjected to extreme wear and tear. We will e.g. replace the affected part of your tripod if a carbon tube snaps or cracks without much pressure applied to it or if the apex breaks. We will not replace your tripod or the affected part if e.g. a joint locks up due to sand or salt build up or if a hinge becomes corroded or stiff/floppy and unserviceable due to corrosion or salt build up. In sum, if we see that you took good care of your tripod and something went wrong, we will go out of our way to fix or replace it for you. If we see that you dragged it through the mud (literally or metaphorically), then we are unlikely to fix/replace it for you. How you handle your tripod and take care of it, is all the difference between 3- or 20 years of service. The best of tripods will not last longer than 2/3 years if used regularly in the sea, INCORRECTLY, and never serviced. Always make sure to extend the lowest leg section first, so you keep the joints out of the water/sand. Always rinse with freshwater after use in the sea, wipe down with a wet cloth, leave extended to dry and ENSURE YOU KEEP THE HEAD AND APEX DRY. If your tripod’s joints start feeling sandy/gritty, open them up, give them a proper clean and lubrication and fine-tune the tension on the joints.
If travelling on dirt roads, ensure that your tripod is in its carry-bag when not in use.
Your tripod will not take care of itself – it is up to you to do so. All our tripods ship with an info-sheet on taking care of your tripod. We also offer a full tripod disassembly and service for R1000, including shipping both ways.
NiSi is renowned as one of the world's top manufacturers of completely colour-neutral and vignette-free ND filters. Made from H-K9L optical proglass, it allows for optimal light transmission to produce sharp and contrast-rich images with true-to-life colour.
Solid neutral density filters lengthen exposure by cutting out a specific amount of light. This is very useful for creative purposes, whether you want to blur a wave, waterfall, leopard or a street scene.They are available in many different densities, ranging from 2 to 20 stops, but the most popular are 3-, 6- and 10-stops. Please read the bullet points below to understand the purpose of each.
3-Stop | 0.9- This filter is used to add a slight blur to water before the sun has set or after it has risen. At f/16 and ISO100, it is impossible to achieve a slow enough shutter speed to get the ideal amount of blur in the waves while the sun is up. Three stops of darkening will normally allow a shutter speed of 1/10s to 1/2s during this golden sunlight phase, producing soft lines in the waves.
6-Stop | 1.8- This filter serves the same purpose as the 10-stop, but it is better suited for sunset and sunrise. When the sun is close to setting or rising, a 10-stop ND will require a very long shutter speed at f/11-16 and ISO100 to produce the correct exposure - often as much as 5-10 minutes. A 6-stop ND is thus much more suited for capturing long exposures of 30-60s around sunset and sunrise.
10-Stop | 3.0 - This filter is used primarily for blurring the sea to a flat mist and for blurring clouds into abstract lines. It can also be used to remove traffic and people from urban scenes by blurring the moving elements. At f/11-16 and ISO100, it usually produces a shutter speed of 20-30s in the early morning or late afternoon with strong sunlight.
15-Stop | 4.5 - This filter is serious long exposure territory and will produce exposures times of 1-4 minutes in peak daylight and 5-30 minutes during golden hour.
IR Blocking- This filter blocks out unwanted Infra-red light that can cause strange colours in undesired areas and rob images of critical shadow-contrast.
Nano Coating- This filter features a super tough scratch-resistant and hydrophobic nano-coating that ensures that it lasts for years. It also ensures that any rain or spray from the ocean beads properly and is easy to wipe off so you can continue shooting the sunset.
*This filter is also available in 2,4,5,7,8,9 and11 stops. Please get in touch via the contact page if you would like to order one of these densities.
