The filter creates a softening effect by scattering light through ring-shaped deformations arranged randomly across the surface of the glass. These deformations are larger and rougher compared to other softening filters, contributing to a stronger softening effect.
The filter is designed to fit any camera lens with a diameter of 55mm. It's always recommended to check your lens specifications to ensure compatibility.
The filter is designed to soften the focus of your images without compromising on image quality. Its high-quality glass construction ensures clear, sharp images while adding a unique softening effect.

Explore the artistic potential of your photography with the Hoya 55mm Creative Softener No1 Glass Filter. This high-quality, durable filter is designed to transform your images, adding a soft focus effect that removes edge sharpness and subtly reduces contrast. The result is a charming, dreamy atmosphere that enhances the appeal of your subjects, making this filter an excellent choice for both professional and amateur photographers.
The Hoya Softener No1 is a classic softening filter, ideal for still photography and videography. It provides a stronger softening effect compared to the Hoya Softener No0.5, allowing you to experiment with more extreme effects and explore your creativity in new and exciting ways.
The softening effect is achieved through the scattering of light, facilitated by ring-shaped deformations arranged randomly across the surface of the translucent glass. These deformations are larger and rougher compared to the Softener No0.5, and are arranged in a higher density, contributing to the filter's unique softening capabilities.
The Hoya Softener No1 is particularly effective for portrait photography, where it softens skin tones, hides unwanted details, and adds a stylized mood to the overall image. It also enhances illumination scenes, making light sources shine brighter, and can be used to create a dreamy atmosphere in landscape photography.
Experience the transformative power of the Hoya 55mm Creative Softener No1 Glass Filter, and take your photography to new creative heights.
