Hoya 52mm Sparkle 4x Multi-Coated Glass Filter

Take your photography to the next level with the 52mm Sparkle 4x Multi-Coated Glass Filter. Designed to create a captivating four-cross pattern on point light sources, this filter adds a fairytale-like touch to your images. It's perfect for capturing those special moments that spark a warm, cozy feeling inside us, such as a campfire gathering, a winter evening at an illuminated park, or a raindrop sliding down a flower after a summer storm.

The Sparkle 4x Multi-Coated Glass Filter is crafted to create moderately sized light beams from light sources, subtly enhancing them to appear like tiny sparks. This effect adds a warm and joyful atmosphere to your photos, mirroring the feeling inside of us. Unlike conventional cross filters that can clutter your photos with overly long light beams, the Sparkle 4x filter strikes a perfect balance between the strength of the light source and the length of the light beams.

This high-quality filter shines in astrophotography, transforming the light sources of brighter stars into mesmerizing four-pointed stars. It's part of the Sparkle series, which also includes the Sparkle 6x, offering a six-cross pattern for even more creative possibilities. In the absence of strong light sources, the Sparkle 4x filter produces a soft, dreamy effect, ideal for portrait, flower, and landscape photography.

The filter features a rotatable front frame, allowing you to change the angle of the cross pattern and personalize your photos further. It's compatible with a wide range of lenses from leading brands like Canon, Nikon, Sony, and Pentax, making it a versatile addition to your photography kit.

Please note that the cross effect appears from single point light sources, and the strength of the light source, the focal distance, and the aperture value can impact the cross effect. For the best results, adjust your settings according to the lighting conditions and focus on the light source for a crisper cross effect.

Experience the magic of the 52mm Sparkle 4x Multi-Coated Glass Filter and elevate your photography with its unique effects.
