Hoya 77mm ND Essentials Filter Kit 8/64/1000
The Hoya 77mm ND Essentials Filter Kit 8/64/1000 is an essential filter kit, designed for amateur or professional photographers and video content creators. The kit consists of 3 ND filters — PROND8, PROND64 and PROND1000 — allowing photographers to capture the world in a variety of expressions.
The choice of ND filters depends on the photographer's intention to control shutter speed or aperture. The contents of this filter kit are based on experience gained from selling millions of ND filters worldwide. PROND8, PROND64 and PROND1000 are the most essential ND filters, helping to achieve three expressions that we consider to be widely used by photographers.
The Hoya PROND filter is a high-tech product designed for photo and HDSLR videography. The PROND filters use Hoya's exclusive clear optical glass with a metal coating on both the front and rear to reduce virtually the entire light spectrum evenly, even in the infrared range. The ACCU-ND technology used in the coating process ensures a truly neutral colour balance that adds no noticeable colour cast to your images. The Hoya PROND filters feature a precision-engineered thick aluminium frame to prevent light leakage, ensuring correct exposure and colour balance.
PROND8 (3 stops)
The Hoya PROND8 is essential for shooting with fast lenses at wide-open aperture during the day, making it perfect for portraits with a shallow depth of field. The subject appears sharp and clear against a soft, blurred background. Other recommended scenes include night-time light trails, fireworks and lightning.
PROND64 (6 stops)
The Hoya PROND64 is essential for capturing subjects in blurred motion during the day — something that cannot be achieved through camera settings alone. Recommended for landscapes, urban photography, video and other photographic genres.
PROND1000 (10 stops)
The Hoya PROND1000 is essential for capturing a surreal, fantasy world thanks to its 10-stop reduction in the amount of light. Widely used in seascapes to blur waves, street photography to emphasise cloud movement, and architecture to erase moving people from the scene.
