Hoya 67mm HD MKII IRND 8 Neutral Density 0.9 3-Stop Filter

Experience the precision of light control with the 67mm HD MKII IRND 8 Neutral Density 0.9 3-Stop Filter. This advanced filter utilizes HOYA's exclusive ACCU-ND technology, ensuring equal reduction of light across both visible and IR spectrums. This innovative feature eliminates the common issue of color shift, providing consistent results in all shooting conditions.

Neutral density filters, like this one, are indispensable tools for both filmmakers and photographers. They offer the ability to control the amount of light entering the lens, enabling filmmakers to achieve shutter speeds that align with their frame-rate while maintaining creative depth-of-field control. For photographers, this translates into the capability for longer exposures or achieving a shallower depth-of-field even in the brightest sunlight conditions.

The 67mm HD MKII IRND 8 Neutral Density 0.9 3-Stop Filter is housed in a new low-profile, lightweight, precision-milled aluminum frame. This design is meticulously crafted to prevent light leaks and bleeding around the filter, which can occur during long exposures. The frame also includes front filter threads, allowing for the attachment of additional filters or a protective lens cap.

This filter features AR Multi-coatings with Waterproof and Oil-Repellent Tech. The HD MKII IRND series applies an anti-reflection multi-coating that effectively reduces reflections caused by scattered light rays, a common concern during long exposures. A waterproof and oil repellent top-coat is also applied, making cleaning and maintenance a breeze.

For photographers seeking to achieve specific effects in their final image, the choice of ND filters can be crucial. If a single ND filter does not meet the demands of the situation or the photographer's vision, a combination of filters can be employed. For instance, stacking the HD MKII IRND 64 with the HD MKII IRND 1000 will provide 16 stops of light reduction, enabling the capture of the sun's surface without overexposure.
