VND (2-7 Stop) QuickLock Filter, iPhone 17 Pro Max
The QuickLock Variable ND Filter is an attachable phone filter that helps darken your camera when the scene is too bright. Think of it like sunglasses for your iPhone, giving you better control in harsh sunlight so your photos and videos don’t look blown out.
Use it for filming outdoors, shooting in bright midday sun, capturing smoother motion, or getting a softer, more cinematic look. The adjustable dial lets you control how much light comes in, from a little darker to much darker, without changing the color of your shot.
It attaches in seconds using our QuickLock™ press-and-lock system, so you can add or remove it quickly without screwing on a filter.
Compatibility Note : Requires a Moment Camera Case, sold separately. QuickLock filters are made for iPhone 15, 16, and 17 Pro / Pro Max models only. Filters are model-specific and not cross-compatible.
Our Review
Moment VND (2-7 Stop) QuickLock Filter — Professional Light Control for iPhone Video
The gist: A 2-7 stop variable ND filter that takes two seconds to attach and instantly elevates iPhone video quality — ideal for remote professionals recording content in varied lighting conditions.
- Variable 2-7 stop ND: Eliminates blown-out windows or bright backgrounds in home-office and outdoor video shoots — makes every recording look intentionally lit rather than accidentally overexposed.
- Schott B270 cinema glass: Professional optical glass in an aerospace aluminum frame — no color shift or vignetting when shooting talking-head videos or product demos in bright conditions.
- QuickLock 2-second attach/detach: Goes on and off without disturbing your framing, so you can move between indoor and outdoor shooting without resetting your shot.
- Multi-lens coverage: Covers all three iPhone Pro lenses simultaneously — switch between focal lengths mid-shoot without swapping filters.
9to5Mac cited it as “the one accessory to buy” for iPhone filmmaking, highlighting the QuickLock convenience and professional-grade optical performance for real-world shooting.
Best for: Remote professionals who record video content for YouTube, courses, or client presentations and need broadcast-quality light control from their iPhone. Skip it if: Your recording happens mostly in controlled indoor lighting — an ND filter is less necessary without harsh ambient light. Runs around $85 — check the current price before buying.
