Hoya 77mm HD MKII IRND 8 Neutral Density 0.9 3-Stop Filter #XHDII-77IRND8

If you're a filmmaker or photographer seeking precise control over the light entering your lens, the 77mm HD MKII IRND 8 Neutral Density 0.9 3-Stop Filter is an indispensable tool. This high-quality filter, produced by the reputable brand Hoya, employs exclusive ACCU-ND technology to ensure equal reduction of light across both visible and IR spectrums. This feature eliminates the common issue of color shift, providing consistent results in any shooting conditions.

This durable and effective neutral density filter is crucial for maintaining creative depth-of-field control for filmmakers and enabling longer exposures or shallower depth-of-field for photographers, even in the brightest sunlight conditions. The filter's density of 0.9 (3 stop) reduces the light entering the lens by a factor of three, offering you more control over exposure and depth of field.

The filter is housed in a new low-profile, lightweight, precision-milled aluminum frame, designed to prevent light leaks and bleeding that can occur during long exposures. The frame also includes front filter threads, allowing for the attachment of additional filters or a protective lens cap.

The HD MKII IRND series features an anti-reflection multi-coating that minimizes reflections caused by scattered light rays, a common concern during long exposures. A waterproof and oil repellent top-coat is also applied for easy cleaning and maintenance, making this filter a reliable and versatile choice for any photographer or filmmaker.

For those seeking to achieve a specific effect in their final image, this filter can be combined or "stacked" with others. For instance, combining the HD MKII IRND 64 with the HD MKII IRND 1000 will provide 16 stops of light reduction, enabling you to capture even the surface of the sun without overexposure. This 77mm HD MKII IRND 8 Neutral Density 0.9 3-Stop Filter is designed for cameras with a 77mm lens thread, making it a perfect addition to your photography equipment.
