Hoya UX II Circular Polarizer Filter 72mm

Target Audience

The UX II series is designed for entry-level photographers seeking high-quality filters at an affordable price.

User Experience

"UX" stands for "User eXperience," reflecting the enhanced photographic experiences users gain when using these filters.

Control Reflections

Circular Polarizing (CIR-PL) filters are primarily used to reduce light reflections from non-metallic surfaces. The filter can be rotated to adjust the level of reflection reduction or enhancement, allowing photographers to control reflections according to their creative intent.

Enhance Contrast

The CIR-PL filter also improves saturation of skies and foliage by cutting reflections from moisture and dust particles in the air, enhancing cloud visibility and overall image contrast.

Compatibility and Design

The UX II CIR-PL filter is compatible with both film and digital cameras. It features a polarizing film sandwiched between two glass elements, with a rotatable front frame to position the polarizing film at the desired angle.

Additional Features

• Threaded edges allow attachment of additional filters and lens caps.
• Slim black aluminum frame design prevents vignetting on wide-angle lenses.
