Hoya Variable Neutral Density Filter
Vary the Amount of Light with Just One Filter
The HOYA Variable Neutral Density filter can take the place of a range of graded ND filters which saves money by only needing to buy one filter and saves time on location or on set by not needing to change filters constantly to change the effect, just turn the ring to get the effect you want.
The HOYA Variable Neutral Density filter puts you in control.

Why use a Variable Density Filter?When using a camera in its fully manual mode the exposure time and aperture size can be adjusted. Adding a variable density filter adds control of the amount of light entering the lens which enables increased exposure times and/or apertures while using the neutral density filter to prevent overexposure. |
Without FilterThe HOYA Variable Neutral Density filter provides a convenient way to maintain exposure control by being able to vary the amount of light entering the camera by 1.5 to 9 stops (0.45 to 2.7 density for Cine use). |
With FilterThis control allows for many special effects such as being able to control depth of field by using a wider aperture or create or control motion blur by being able to choose just the right slower shutter speeds for perfect blurring. |

Product Description
This filter makes easy to adjust the brightness of a scene and have more control over the exposure settings of your camera, for both still photography and video use. The filter reduces light transmittance between approximately 1/3 and 1/400th of its original level, by rotating the inner filter ring. This allows a much greater range of shutter speed and aperture values to be set according to the desired effect. For example a long shutter speed can be used to blur water or crowds of people, even in full sunlight. The practical exposure range and light transmittance will vary depending on the situation.
Customer reviews
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2018
I have also used it for some photos and I find that there are some odd vignette areas that show up on it. I think for photos, you would be better off buying individual stop filters to achieve an even look across your images.
One thing that I don't like is that the zero setting is not truly zero. It still cuts the light down quite a bit, so I have to take it off when no filtering is needed. I'll just have to carry the case in my pocket to keep the filter when I take it off my camera.
1.- ó ahorrar y comprar un filtro polar pro - edicion Peter McKinnon o
2.- comprar un adaptador para poder poner filtros de densidad neutra cuadrados que no son variables, pero al final dan mejor resultado con la contra de que no son tan prácticos.

Had no issue with it. Works like it should. Only thing to keep in mind, the lens cap does not clip on it very well so must take it off when I put back my camera in my bag. I hesitated to buy the Peter Mckinon edition from Polar pro wich is very expensive. Happy I bought this one instead. Saved lots of money and it works fine.
