Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Features 18 layers of Super HMC multi-coating, which is designed for high light-transmission and flare resistance.
  • Constructed with Hoya professional-grade optical glass, aiming to provide clear and uncompromised image quality.
  • Effectively reduces reflections from non-metallic surfaces, enhancing overall image clarity.
  • Increases contrast and color saturation, allowing for more vibrant and striking photographic results.
  • Designed to be stain resistant, protecting against fingerprints and smudges, and also water repellent for easy cleaning.

👎 Cons

  • As a PL-CIR filter, it specifically targets reflections from non-metallic surfaces and may not offer benefits for metallic reflections.
  • The effect of increasing contrast and color saturation is inherent to this filter type, but some photographers might prefer a more neutral, unaltered image.
  • While stain resistant and water repellent, the features do not specify the level of resistance to extreme conditions or harsh cleaning agents.
  • The 67mm diameter might not be compatible with all lenses, requiring users to check their lens thread size before purchase.
  • There is no information provided about the frame thickness, which can be a factor for vignetting on wide-angle lenses.
