Meets expectations

This is a good protective filter. I've only used it for indoor photos so far, but I'm happy with the results.

Hoya skylight 55mm filter

Always had good service from Hoya filters and this is no exception. This is an excellent filter to just keep on my lens for protection and reduce sky hazing in color and B/W films.

Perfect for my lens.

I already have one of these, but needed another one for a second lens. I am happy with it, and recommend it to anyone.

My Primary Filter

This filter is almost always on the lens, it only comes off when I'm using another one. I don't like to stack them as if I shoot at 16mm the stacked filters show up.

Great filter for slow zooms.

Well built filter for the price. Purchased for my 55-200mm zoom to warm up skin tones outdoors without having to fiddle with white balance. Also makes for affordable front lens element protection. Mission accomplished.

excellent used filter!

Hoya HMC filter with almost no wear, just needed a thorough cleaning to be like new. This may be an older series of filters, but the performance is still excellent, the HMC line is my go-to for value and no compromise optical quality.

Perfect filter & Good Price

I still use film for a number of reasons, and the filters are crucial for the types of photo's i usually take. Hoya filters have always performed as expected. Good quality control on the manufacturing side. The fair pricing is also a plus. There are better filters, yet these are hard to beat for the prices you pay.

Cheap Insurance

Dropped my lens; it smashed lens cap down onto concrete. The lens cap was forced onto the filter, the filter was broken, but after having it removed at a repair shop, the lens itself was in perfect condition and even the lens cap was fine. The filter absorbed the force and saved the lens. I immediately ordered a replacement.

Saved my lens

I work mainly in nature photography and that often means challenging environments. Recently this filter saved the front element of my lens from damage. Ok, that means it was sacrificial, but better that than expensive and time consuming repair to one of my main lenses for field work.

very good multi coated filter

I've been using Hoya HMC and S-HMC filters for years. They are excellent filters at a very good price. I prefer a Skylight filter to a UV because it adds a slight bit of warmth.

Quality Filter for the Money.

The description does not specify that this is a 1B filter. I would have prefered a 1A filter even though the differences are slight (the 1B is warmer than the 1A). It would have been nice to know this before I ordered. I'll still keep and use it since the difference is minimal.

Nice Filter

This is a great inexspensive filter. Gets the job done with nice optics. Its also a good lens protector. I dropped my camera, and it landed directly on the filter, the results was a busted filter, but.... protected my lens. Thank God!!!! Its a good filter and I recomend it.

Nature photography, and this is a very good brand that I prefer over all other brands. Very well made.

Are you looking to enhance your outdoor photography with natural, balanced colors The 46mm Skylight Multi Coated Glass Filter is an essential tool for photographers aiming to capture the true essence of their outdoor scenes. This high-quality filter effectively reduces the excessive bluish tint that can dominate your images when shooting in open shade or under a clear, blue sky, ensuring that your photos exhibit a more realistic and warm color balance.

Crafted with precision, the filter boasts a multi-coating process that not only improves light transmission but also minimizes reflections, allowing for clearer and sharper images. Its absorption peak is meticulously aligned with the film's green spectrum, which is crucial for achieving outstanding outdoor shots that showcase superb color balance and clarity, regardless of the conditions.

Moreover, the 46mm Skylight Multi Coated Glass Filter serves as an invaluable asset for portrait photography. It helps maintain natural skin tones by preventing unwanted colored reflections from nearby objects, such as the greenish cast from foliage, from affecting your subject. This results in portraits that look more lifelike and free from distracting color casts.

Whether you're a seasoned professional or an enthusiastic hobbyist, this filter is a reliable addition to your photography kit. It's been praised by users for its excellent performance and value, with many photographers preferring the subtle warmth it adds to their images over standard UV filters.
