Hoya YPND100062 62mm Pro ND 1000 Filter

The Hoya Pro ND 1000 in 62mm is a fixed neutral density filter designed to reduce the light entering your lens by 10 full stops. This level of light reduction transforms what would be a 1/500s exposure into roughly a 2-second exposure, opening up creative possibilities that are otherwise impossible in bright conditions — silky smooth waterfalls, streaked clouds, and ghosted crowds are all achievable in broad daylight without overexposing the image.

What sets the Hoya Pro ND 1000 apart from budget alternatives is its ACCU-ND (Accurate Color Neutral Density) coating technology, which is engineered to minimize the color casts that plague many dense ND filters. Where lesser filters often introduce a strong magenta or blue shift requiring significant post-processing correction, the Hoya maintains a neutral tone that preserves the natural color of the scene. The filter is constructed from optical glass and fits standard 62mm lens threads, making it a reliable tool for landscape, architectural, and fine-art photographers who regularly work with long exposures.
