Hoya YPND010058 58mm Pro ND100 Neutral Density Filter

The Hoya Pro ND100 is a 58mm screw-on neutral density filter that reduces light transmission by 6 2/3 stops, enabling photographers to use slow shutter speeds and wide apertures in conditions that would otherwise result in overexposure. This makes it particularly valuable for landscape photographers pursuing silky water effects, cloud streaks, or crowd removal in daylight, as well as portrait and video shooters who want to maintain shallow depth of field outdoors without stopping down.

What sets the Pro ND series apart from budget alternatives is the ACCU-ND coating, which Hoya developed to maintain accurate, neutral color balance across the visible spectrum. Many inexpensive ND filters introduce a noticeable magenta, blue, or brown color shift that requires post-processing correction — the ACCU-ND coating is engineered to minimize this. The aluminium filter ring keeps weight low and threads smoothly onto 58mm lenses. As a fixed-density filter, it offers simplicity and optical consistency, though photographers who need variable light reduction or stronger densities will need to supplement it with additional filters.
