The Hoya 72mm Variable Density Filter offers adjustable light reduction from 1.5 to 9 stops, equivalent to NDx3 to NDx400. Using two polarizing layers, it allows precise control over exposure, enabling shallow depth of field in bright sunlight or long exposures for creative motion blur. The low-profile black almite frame reduces reflections and prevents vignetting on wide-angle lenses, while the rotating ring with scale markings ensures easy adjustment.
