Hoya ProND 2段 ND4 フィルター 67mm

Finally getting that creamy background blur in full sun without cranking the shutter speed into uselessness—this ND4 filter just works. The glass is clean and the threads screw on smooth, no fiddling to get it seated right.

I was shooting portraits in bright daylight and this filter let me open my aperture to f/1.8 without blowing out the shot. The glass feels solid and the threading is smooth. Exactly what I needed for shallower depth of field.

Shot a whole portrait session at f/1.8 in bright midday sun and the exposure didn't budge off my target. The glass is crystal clear, no color cast that I can see in the raws. Finally able to blur backgrounds the way I wanted without dragging a polarizer around.
