Hoya PRO ND4 58mm Neutral Density Filter

The Hoya PRO ND4 58mm Neutral Density Filter is a high-quality optical filter designed for photographers and videographers who need precise control over exposure. With a 2-stop light reduction (ND4, optical density 0.6), it allows you to use slower shutter speeds or wider apertures in bright conditions, enabling creative effects such as motion blur and shallow depth of field. The filter features Hoya Multi-Coating (HMC) to minimize reflections and flare, ensuring sharp, contrast-rich images. Its slim aluminum frame is compatible with wide-angle lenses without vignetting, and the front thread allows stacking of additional filters.

Advantages

This ND filter offers excellent color neutrality, preserving natural tones without color cast. The multi-coated optical glass provides durability and easy cleaning. The low-profile design ensures compatibility with a wide range of lenses, and the 58mm diameter fits many popular camera lenses.
