The Hoya Variable
Density filter uses two polarizing layers to control the amount of light
that passes through the filter and into the camera lens. At it’s
minimum effect the filter passes 1/3 of the light in a scene. That is
equal to 1.5 stops on the aperture or shutter speed. At it maximum
effect the filter passes just 1/400 of the light in a scene. That is
equal to 9 stops on the aperture or shutter speed.
After the
filter is mounted on the lens, turning the filter ring between “Min” and
“Max” can greatly control the amount of light entering the lens. With
the Hoya Variable Density filter it is possible to shoot with fast
lenses like a 50mm f/1.4 lens wide open at f/1.4 in full sun for a very
shallow depth of field. Or, to slow down the shutter speed to where the
shutter can be open for several seconds in full sunlight. This is enough
to create artistic blurring shots of motion on water, cars, people or
almost anything that moves. The creative possibilities are endless.
The
Hoya Variable Density filter uses high-quality optical glass from Hoya
Corporation, the worlds largest optical glass manufacturer and is
available in sizes 52mm to 82mm.
For best results Hoya recommends using a tripod when photographing with slow shutter speeds.
