Tilta Illusion Magnetic Filter Ultimate Kit (1-10 Stops VND, CPL, Black Mist)

The Tilta Illusion Magnetic Filter Ultimate Kit (1–10 Stop) is a complete cinematic filter system featuring variable ND, circular polarizer, and Black Mist 1/4 diffusion options. Designed for the Tilta Illusion Magnetic ecosystem, it offers fast magnetic mounting with mechanical locking, enabling precise exposure control, reduced reflections, and cinematic image styling in a compact, travel-ready kit.

The Tilta Illusion Magnetic Filter Ultimate Kit with VND, CPL, and Black Mist 1/4 (1–10 Stop) is a professional-grade all-in-one filter system designed for filmmakers and photographers who demand flexibility, speed, and cinematic image control. Built around Tilta’s Illusion Magnetic ecosystem, the kit combines variable neutral density, polarization, and diffusion effects into a single modular workflow optimized for both studio and location production.

Key features

No colour cast

The cinema-grade Full Spectrum (FS) coating delivers low reflectivity and even light transmission, preserving the true colour of every scene.

Minimal vignetting

Most common filter combinations are integrated into a single piece of glass — fewer stacked layers means vignetting is eliminated at the source.

Low maintenance

A water- and oil-repellent surface plus the included microfibre cloth means fingerprints and smudges wipe clean instantly.

At the core of the system is a magnetic mounting mechanism with mechanical locking, ensuring filters attach quickly while remaining secure during handheld, gimbal, and cinema camera use. This design enables rapid filter swaps and stacking without interrupting the shooting process.

The kit includes multiple circular polarizer variations, including a standard CPL for glare reduction and color enhancement, a CPL with integrated ND32 for fixed 5-stop exposure reduction, and a CPL with Black Mist 1/4 diffusion for cinematic highlight bloom and reduced contrast. When paired with the included VND stacking module, users can achieve a flexible exposure range from 1 to 10 stops, making it suitable for both controlled studio lighting and bright outdoor environments.

Optically, the filters feature full-spectrum multi-coating for accurate color reproduction, reduced reflections, and consistent image quality. The Black Mist 1/4 diffusion adds subtle softness to highlights while preserving shadow detail, making it ideal for portraits, narrative filmmaking, and stylized visuals.

The system is further enhanced by low-profile construction that minimizes vignetting on wide-angle lenses and ensures compatibility with compact lens setups. Water- and oil-resistant coatings make maintenance easy in demanding production environments.

For portability and protection, the kit includes magnetic front and rear covers, adapter rings for 77mm and 82mm lenses, and a soft carrying case, making it a complete travel-ready solution for professional creators.
