Hoya 67mm HD MKII IRND Neutral Density Filters Kit

The 67mm HD MKII IRND Neutral Density Filters Kit offers precise control over both visible and IR light spectrums, thanks to HOYA's exclusive ACCU-ND technology. This high-quality, durable kit ensures an equal reduction of light across spectrums, eliminating the common issue of color shift in any shooting conditions.

Neutral density filters are essential tools for both filmmakers and photographers, providing the ability to regulate the amount of light passing through the lens. For filmmakers, this translates to shutter speeds that align with your frame-rate, while still maintaining creative depth-of-field control. For photographers, it enables longer exposures or shallower depth-of-field even in the brightest sunlight conditions.

The filters in this kit are mounted into a new low-profile, lightweight, precision-milled aluminum frame. This efficient design meticulously prevents 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.

The HD MKII IRND series features an anti-reflection multi-coating, reducing reflections caused by scattered light rays, a significant concern during long exposures. A waterproof and oil repellent top-coat is applied for easy cleaning and maintenance, making these filters both versatile and professional.

The choice of ND filters depends on the photographer's intention to achieve the desired effect in the final image. If a single ND filter doesn't meet the demands of the situation, or the photographer's vision, a combination of filters can be utilized. For instance, the combination of HD MKII IRND 64 + HD MKII IRND 1000 will provide 16 stops of light reduction, allowing you to capture the surface of the sun without overexposure. This makes the 67mm HD MKII IRND Neutral Density Filters Kit a valuable asset for any photography or filmmaking toolkit.
