I was finally able to capture some photos of the sea crashing on a rocky beach in Maine the way I had wanted to for years when I had this ND filter and my tripod with me. Highly recommended.

Purchased as a gift for my son. It adjusts smoothly from slightly darkened to totally opaque. A good way to begin working with ND filters without having to purchase a whole collection of filters.

I love hoya filters. They are made with great quality glass and give me no image issues. I have their entire line up for all my different lenses.

I love Hoya filters. They are 100% worth the price. Don't scrimp on cheapo filters as your photos or video will def suffer. I've used cheaper ones and they are very inconsistent or break easily. You won't go wrong with Hoya.

This works great, no problems with my lens hood over the top. Great price versus some of the designer filters, and every bit as good.

For the film makers out there, this is a great deal if you shoot on a lens greater than 35mm. The variable dial action doesn’t slip and it’s easy to dial in for the perfect exposure. I’m just getting started so this was a great deal!

It does exactly what it was designed to do.

Provides much needed reduction in light to control shutter speed. In freezing temperatures, waves appear on the higher end of the density.

Free shipping was offered and I ordered this a week before I needed it. Adorama chose a carrier known for multi-week deliveries so that by the time I got it there was no longer need for it this year. I complained and let them talk me out of refusing delivery, but got busy with 60-hour photography weeks so time slipped by and I'm stuck with it. I really shouldn't have bought it, and every time I see it in the drawer I'll be angry again. :-(

Does not work well with wide angle lens.

Sturdy and comes with a container, which I appreciate. I bought these after studying a few YouTube demos of ND filters. I settled on this for the aesthetic range it offers. It's sexy.

Love this ND filter for the flexibility and not having to carry multiples in my bag. The perfect accessory for cutting out that extra light to get the look you want. The quality is excellent .

It's probably the best option for the price.I tried before other brands which suffered from a color cast and impossible to deal with x pattern marks on at least one-third of the steps. This one has only problems where it has an x marked at the end, and the user manual advises about it. Probably there are better options, but not likely at that price point. I would recommend it.

This has changed my videos overnight. Without a filter, I've struggled to keep an open lens without blowing out my shots. This filter was just what I needed.

This filter produces a horrible cross vignette on the image when stopped down to the max. Would not recommend.

I was using really cheap ND filters in the past that had a horrible color cast on my videos. These are a HUGE upgrade! These Variable ND filters are a must! And I don’t notice any extra color grading to my footage.

I have just started using this lens with both my Sigma and Tamron lenses. It works well with both, although there is some distortion at the maximum setting.

I got this to help with day time long exposure. I had a $60 dollar coupon so I paid only $($) which is a steal! I love how easy this is to use. You literally just screw it on and dial to the exposure you want. I don’t notice any focusing issues at all. So far so good! :)

Excellent quality. I like the ability to precisely adjust the filter for taking long exposure shots/

First service was GREAT. The filter although is horrible often I will get a curved X in the center of the picture ruining many shoots. I am working out of town and thought I would try this filter out before taking it to Scotland with me and I am glad I did. Hoys is a good name which is why I tried this but I am going back to Cokin individual ND filters. Is this something I can return or exchange?

After much research of various brands, this is truly an awesome filter and would truly recommend it to anyone in need of a ND Filter. An absolutely great price and performs even better.

This ND filter is much better than less expensive filters - the dreaded black X doesn't show up until the filter is at its darkest. There is some vignetting at wider angles, but overall, I'm happy with the purchase. I do wish I could use my lens cap while the filter is attached.
