Hoya Variable Density II Filter 77mm

Whether you’re shooting long-exposure landscapes or capturing pro video, the Hoya Variable Density II Filter 77mm gives you precise control over your exposure. By replacing a whole set of solid ND filters, this single adjustable filter allows you to easily dial in the exact density you need for any lighting condition. Hoya engineers have reconstructed the frame to minimise overall thickness, featuring a top frame that is one full size larger than the original model to significantly reduce vignetting on wide-angle lenses.

For still photographers, this filter is essential for slowing down your shutter speed to create smooth motion blur in waterfalls or panning cars, or for opening up your aperture to achieve beautiful bokeh in bright sunlight. For video creators, it provides the freedom to maintain a shutter speed that is exactly double your frame rate, ensuring cinematic motion without jarring afterimages.
