UV (C) HMC Filter

The UV (C) filter features a multi-coated slim mounting ring design, ideal for wide-angle lenses to prevent vignetting. It absorbs ultraviolet light without adding coloration or contrast, making it suitable for use with other filters. It also serves as a protective filter against dust, moisture, and scratches. Hoya's HMC multi-coating reduces flare, ghosting, and reflections, allowing over 97% light transmission for enhanced contrast and color fidelity.

Circular Polarizer Filter

This filter reduces reflections and glare by filtering polarized light reflected from non-metallic surfaces. It minimizes haze caused by scattered polarized sunlight, enhancing saturation of skies and foliage. The filter improves image clarity and color saturation by absorbing polarized light perpendicular to reflections.

Neutral Density (ND8) Filter

The ND8 filter reduces light intensity by 3 stops (filter factor 0.9) without affecting color balance, enabling creative control over exposure. It appears gray and is useful for achieving effects otherwise impossible under bright conditions. Both surfaces are coated with Hoya's anti-reflective HMC coatings to maintain image contrast and reduce flare.

General Features

This kit combines essential filters—UV, circular polarizer, and ND8—known for affordability and high-quality craftsmanship from Hoya. The filters use premium materials and proven technology, meeting the needs of both amateur and professional photographers. The polarizing filter effectively eliminates unwanted reflections from surfaces like water, enhancing color saturation and scene clarity. UV filters block ultraviolet radiation, improving color saturation and contrast, especially in sunny conditions, while protecting lenses from dirt and mechanical damage. The ND8 filter limits light by 3 stops with anti-reflective coatings to preserve image quality.
