This high-quality, durable filter is designed to provide effective light reduction, enabling photographers and filmmakers to achieve the perfect exposure even in challenging bright conditions.Crafted with ACCU-ND technology, the Hoya PROND filter ensures a reliable and consistent reduction of light across both the visible and infrared spectrums.

It is an essential tool for capturing landscapes with a smooth, flowing appearance in waterfalls or skies, architectural photography with crisp details, or portraits with a beautifully blurred background. The 6-stop light reduction allows for wider apertures or slower shutter speeds, giving you the creative freedom to explore a shallow depth of field or motion blur effects without overexposure.This reliable filter is housed in a precision-milled, lightweight aluminum frame that is built to withstand the rigors of professional use. The frame also features front filter threads, enabling you to stack additional filters or attach a lens cap for added protection.For videographers, this neutral density filter is indispensable. It facilitates the correct shutter speed to frame rate ratio, ensuring natural motion capture without sacrificing the desired depth of field. When shooting in log modes with high base ISOs, such as Sony's Slog at ISO 800, the Hoya PROND EX 64 becomes a critical component for achieving cinematic quality during daylight shoots.Moreover, for those seeking to push creative boundaries, the Hoya PROND filters can be combined, or "stacked," to achieve even greater effects. Whether you're aiming for the surreal look of an ND500 by combining PROND EX 8 with PROND EX 64, or the power to photograph the sun's surface with an ND8000 effect using PROND EX 8 and PROND EX 1000, the possibilities are endless.In summary, the Hoya 58mm PROND EX 64 Neutral Density 1.8 6-Stop Filter is a high-quality, durable, effective, versatile, and reliable choice for photographers and filmmakers who demand the best in light control technology.
