Hoya 49mm Creative Softener No1 Glass Filter

Just imagine capturing the world through a lens that adds a dreamy, ethereal touch to every image. The 49mm Creative Softener No1 Glass Filter by Hoya, a leader in high-quality photography equipment, does just that. This professional-grade softening filter is a must-have tool for both still photography and videography, expertly designed to subtly reduce edge sharpness and gently lower contrast.

The Hoya Softener No1 filter's unique ability to create a charming, dreamlike atmosphere makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications, from portrait and commercial photography to video production. It enhances the appeal of subjects, making people and objects appear more captivating and endearing.

Compared to the Hoya Softener No0.5, the Softener No1 offers a stronger softening effect, resulting in a more pronounced overall impact. This allows photographers and videographers to experiment with the softening effect in various settings, sparking creativity and imagination.

The secret to the Hoya Softener No1's softening effect lies in its innovative technology. The filter scatters light through ring-shaped deformations randomly arranged across the glass surface. These deformations are larger and rougher compared to those on the Softener No0.5, and are arranged in a higher density, contributing to the filter's stronger softening effect.

Primarily recommended for portrait photography, the Hoya Softener No1 filter softens skin tones, subtly conceals unwanted details, and adds a stylized mood to images. It also excels in illumination scenes, enhancing the brightness of light sources. Furthermore, this versatile filter can be used to create a dreamy atmosphere in landscape photography, adding a unique touch to your outdoor shots.

Experience the magic of the 49mm Creative Softener No1 Glass Filter by Hoya, and transform your photography and videography into a world of enchanting soft focus.
