HOYA HD3 67mm Circular Polarizer -16 layer Ultra-Hard Nano-Coated Optical Glass
If you are looking at the HD3 Series, and interested in additional savings. Take a look at the HD NANO series filters. Same filter as the HD3 Series sold in the U.S.. This model is sold in Europe & Asia. We were offered a special purchase of the HD Nano Series by Hoya USA. Great Value. Comes with the Standard 1 Year Hoya Warranty. Link below. https://www.ebay.com/itm/374238604604 Hoya engineers have re-certified the HD3 Circular Polarizer
to work with 100mp+ camera sensors without loss of resolution. They recognized
a need for a circular polarizer filter that could meet the demands of
super-high-resolution cameras and the needs of photographers who shoot in
conditions where every bit of light is important. Utilizing a new
nano-technology, multi-coating process that applies 16-layers of
anti-reflective (AR) coating to the optical ultra-violet (UV) glass, Hoya
created a filter that is sharper and 200% harder than the award-winning HD2
circular polarizer filter. In addition to being scratch and abrasion resistant,
this hardened coating is also stain resistant and easy to clean when oil and
smudges like fingerprints are introduced to the surface. Hoya selected a
premium optical-thin high rate transmission (HRT) polarizing film that passes
2/3rds of a stop more light through the filter for faster, more accurate AF and
easier viewing through the viewfinder or LCD screen. Giving photographers
shooting in light-critical situations better options when selecting the correct
shutter, aperture, and ISO combination. The HD3 Polarizing glass is housed in a two-piece,
lightweight, low-profile, aircraft-grade aluminum filter frame. This two-piece
design allows the filter to maintain perfect parallel alignment to the sensor
plane for maximum sharpness and zero distortion. Knurled edges on both rings
allow for easy rotation to achieve the desired polarizing effect and easy
attachment and removal from the lens. The low-profile design eliminates the
concern for vignetting when used on ultra-wide angle lenses, and the front
filter threads accept lens caps and other filters for stacking. Circular polarizing filters allow photographers to achieve
creative, in-camera, effects not possible after the image is created. A
polarizing filter simply filters out unwanted reflections from non-metallic
surfaces such as water and glass in addition to light reflecting off moisture
and pollution in the atmosphere. By rotating the filter, you can select just
the right amount of filtration needed to achieve the desired effect. This
results in bluer skies, greener leaves, reduced or eliminated reflections, and
greater clarity in your final image.
