Hoya 77mm PRO ND EX 64 6-Stop Neutral Density Lens Filter

The Hoya 77mm PRO ND EX 64 is a professional-grade neutral density filter designed for photographers seeking precise exposure control in bright lighting conditions. This circular screw-in filter attaches directly to compatible 77mm diameter lenses, reducing the amount of light entering the camera by exactly six stops (ND64). This allows photographers to use slower shutter speeds or wider apertures even in daylight, enabling creative effects like motion blur in waterfalls, smoothed cloud movement, or shallow depth of field in bright environments. The filter is constructed with premium optical glass that maintains colour neutrality and image sharpness, featuring multi-layer anti-reflective coatings on both sides to minimise flare and ghosting. The slim brass mounting ring provides durability while preventing vignetting on wide-angle lenses, and the filter includes front threads for stacking additional filters if required. This professional series is designed to withstand regular use while maintaining optical performance comparable to the lens itself. This filter is particularly suited to landscape, architectural, and long-exposure photographers who require reliable light reduction without colour casts. It's an essential tool for anyone wanting to explore creative shutter speed techniques or needing to control exposure when using fast lenses in bright conditions. The 77mm thread size makes it compatible with numerous professional and enthusiast lenses across various camera systems.
