Hoya 67 mm Variable Neutral Density Filter

The Hoya 67 mm Variable Neutral Density Filter provides a convenient way to maintain exposure control by varying the amount of light entering the camera by 1.5 to 9 stops (0.45 to 2.7 density for Cine use). The precision built-in double ring design allows the outer ring to rotate, controlling the amount of neutral density effect anywhere within the 1.5 – 9 stop range. This double-ring design is also thin to reduce the likelihood of vignetting with wide-angle lenses.

This control allows for many special effects, such as controlling depth of field by using a wider aperture or creating and controlling motion blur by selecting the right slower shutter speeds for perfect blurring.

The HOYA Variable Neutral Density filter can replace a range of graded ND filters, saving money by only needing to buy one filter. It also saves time on location or on set by eliminating the need to change filters constantly; just turn the ring to achieve the desired effect. The HOYA Variable Neutral Density filter puts you in control.

Main Uses of Variable Neutral Density Filters

• Slow down shutter speed for motion blurring effects like waterfalls, cars, or blurred panning movement to make the subject stand out from the background.
• Allow wider apertures to be used to decrease depth-of-field, focusing more attention on the subject.
• Allow higher ISO films to be used in brighter lighting conditions.
• Enable cine/video cameras, which have a fixed shutter-speed range, to film in brighter lighting conditions such as on the beach or in snow on a sunny day.
