Genustech Eclipse ND Fader Filter from Genus Reviews
The Genustech Eclipse ND Fader has received many reviews since it’s launch.
Here are a selection of Genus Eclipse reviews
From Karl Von Moller.
Recently I received a package from Genustech, a manufacturer of camera equipment including filters. They sent me their new “Eclipse ND Fader” to try out. Playing with new gear always excites me so I set about testing the ND Fader against the original Genustech filter I had bought a few years back

Since over 2 years now, I use the Heliopan Vari-Grau ND Fader religiously. I tried a lot of different brands before and have to send them all back, because they get ether soft on a long lens or had some crazy color shift to it – sometimes both. The Heliopan – though expensive – was the only ND Fader that was holding up to my standards.
Now GENUSTECH came out with a new version of their Fader ND. It’s called Eclipse and I gave it a test ride.
To my surprise, the Eclipse does not only play in the same league as the Heliopan, in some situations it “outfades” the Heliopan.

Some Vari ND filters I have used in the past were very soft on the long end of a 70-200mm lens..

Genustech designed this filter to perfection in my eyes. The frame is metal and rotating filter slides smooth while running through the stops. Where the Eclipse Filter shines is within the quality glass they use. This Eclipse Filter that does not hue or soften your images like their competitors. They have dashes on the side ranging from min to max so you can easily dial in and remember what settings you were shooting at.
