The introduction of Moment’s QuickLock Filters has revolutionized creative mobile filmmaking by bringing simplicity, lightweight design, and one of the most crucial elements for cinematic-looking mobile footage: motion blur.
When using third-party apps like the Moment Pro Camera app or the Blackmagic Camera app, you get the freedom to dial in cinematic settings, but one thing you can’t change is the f-stop value, since iPhones have fixed apertures. That’s exactly why the Moment VND 2–7 Stop QuickLock Filter is a must-have for mobile filmmakers who want to keep their rigs minimal while still achieving that cinematic look.
Moment VND 2-7 Stop QuickLock filter
- Moment’s most loved filter the 67mm VND Filter series, is now in an easy to use compact sized for easy carry.
- ND4 – ND128 with hard stops, giving you coverage across a wide range of ND strengths.
- Precision control allowing you to see which stop you shooting from behind the viewfinder.
- Achieve natural motion blur when keeping to the 180-degree shutter rule, getting the most cinematic footage possible from an iPhone.
The mobile filmmaking accessory industry is booming right now. There isn’t a tool, cage, gimbal, lens, or filter you can’t buy to level up your production value. Filmmakers are spoilt for choice. However, speaking from my experience as a solo filmmaker, the most important thing is this: how do I get from point A to point B seamlessly, with zero disruptions to the story or the limited time I have to shoot my film? The need to carry less gear or accessories with me when I am on a shoot. I prefer to only take with gear that is fit for purpose. This forces solo filmmakers to plan ahead before getting to the location.
