Hoya - 52mm PROND EX 64 Neutral Density 1.8 6-Stop Filter

What sets the 52mm PROND EX 64 Neutral Density 1.8 6-Stop Filter apart is its high-quality, durable, and effective design. This versatile and reliable filter is a must-have tool for both filmmakers and photographers seeking precise control over light exposure. It allows for the adjustment of shutter speeds to match your frame-rate, maintaining the desired depth-of-field for filmmakers. For photographers, it enables the use of longer exposures or the achievement of a shallow depth-of-field, even in bright sunlight.Unlike many neutral density filters that suffer from unpredictable "color shift" due to low-quality materials, poor manufacturing, or neglect of the infrared band of the light spectrum, this filter utilizes ACCU-ND technology. This innovative technology ensures that the image undergoes no negative effects from color shift, providing equal reduction of light in both visible and IR spectrums. This means that photographers and filmmakers won't experience issues with color shift when using this Hoya ND filter in various shooting conditions.The 52mm PROND EX 64 Neutral Density 1.8 6-Stop Filter is mounted into a lightweight, precision-milled aluminum frame. It includes front filter threads, allowing for the attachment of additional filters or a protective lens cap. This filter is also a popular tool for shooting video, particularly when using a Sony camera in Slog mode, where the ISO cannot be set below 800.The choice of ND filters depends on the photographer's intentions and vision. If a single ND filter does not meet the demands of the situation, a combination of PROND EX filters can be used. For instance, combining PROND EX 8 + PROND EX 64 will yield an effect equivalent to an ND500 filter, perfect for creating surreal imagery. Alternatively, the combination of PROND EX 8 + PROND EX 1000 will result in an effect equal to ND8000, allowing for the capture of the sun's surface without overexposure. In essence, the 52mm PROND EX 64 Neutral Density 1.8 6-Stop Filter offers unparalleled control, versatility, and quality, making it an essential addition to any photographer's or filmmaker's toolkit.
