When capturing the perfect shot, the 58mm Variable Density II Filter by HOYA is an essential tool for both professional photographers and videography enthusiasts. This high-quality, durable filter offers an adjustable density range from 1.5 to 9 f-stops (ND3-400), providing you with unparalleled control over the amount of light entering your camera. The standout feature of this versatile filter is its newly designed rotatable frame, complete with a convenient knob for ease of operation. This feature sets it apart from its predecessor, the original HOYA Variable Density filter, and allows for a more efficient and precise adjustment of light intake. Variable density filters are a crucial component in any photographer's toolkit, as they can effectively replace a set of solid ND filters. This is due to their ability to provide a range of densities that can be adjusted to match your desired exposure settings. In still photography, these filters can lower the shutter speed according to the photographer's intentions when the camera's limits prevent a lower shutter speed. In over-lit conditions, the Variable Density II Filter can increase the amount of bokeh, preventing image overexposure and enhancing the overall image quality. This is particularly beneficial for video shooting, where maintaining a shutter speed that fits the frame rate setting is fundamental. The HOYA Variable Density II Filter also incorporates a unique rotatable frame construction, which includes a fixed frame and a rotatable frame. The rotatable frame is wider than the fixed frame size, minimizing the risk of vignetting when used on wide-angle lenses. For those seeking longer exposures, this filter provides the freedom to change the shutter speed according to the desired effect, without altering the aperture. This is particularly effective for motion blurring effects, such as waterfalls, cars, or blurred panning movement, helping your subject stand out from the background. In addition, the Variable Density II Filter allows for wider apertures in over-lit conditions, enabling you to decrease depth-of-field and focus more attention on your subject. Overexposure issues can be avoided by adjusting the light intake with this filter, even with a shutter speed of 1/8000 seconds and a large aperture of f/1.4 or f/1.2. For video bloggers and professional video content creators, the Variable Density II Filter is an indispensable tool. It allows cine/video cameras to set the appropriate exposures in bright lighting conditions, helping you achieve that coveted cinematic look. In conclusion, the 58mm Variable Density II Filter by HOYA is a professional, efficient, and versatile tool that offers enhanced control over your photography and videography experiences.

Great service and I love the filter. I hav used Adrorama before.  Initially I received the wrong lens. Customer service was great to work with for the return and getting the right filter before our trip.

Great Service

- Well made and easy to use.  I'm not crazy about using the screw on "lever" to turn the outer ring, but it's not really needed either.  The ring turns easily without the lever and is easier to store back in the container it comes in w/o fiddling around with and perhaps losing the small lever.
