Hoya 82mm HD Nano MKII Circular Polariser Filter

• New 16-layer (both sides) ultra-smooth, ultra-hard nano-coating created by a proprietary application process
• Ultra-hard surface coatings are 200% more scratch-resistant than original standard optical coatings while increasing light transmission
• Stain-resistant, water & oil repellent coating makes everyday maintenance easier
• 25% Greater Light Transmission than standard polarizing film for nearly 1/2 stop more light
• High Transparency Film has high durability and UV-absorbing properties
• Very thin frame with front threads to attach lens caps and other filters
• High-pressure press mount technology holds the glass securely

IMPROVED PROTECTION PERFORMANCE AND DURABILITY

HD nano Mk II CIR-PL coatings have the advantage of being the hardest, scratch & stain-resistant coatings available from any manufacturer. Over time normal filter coatings can be easily damaged by repeated cleanings by wiping with too much force or abrasive cleaning cloths. The HD nano Mk II coating is 200% harder for increased longevity and greater protection.

HIGH TRANSPARENCY POLARISING FILM

HD nano Mk II CIR-PL high transparency polarising film has 25% better light transmission than the standard polarising film used in current photographic filters. This translates to nearly 1/2 stop more light entering the lens while yielding the same polarisation effect, maintaining the colour balance of a standard circular polariser while improving contrast and clarity.

CONTROL REFLECTIONS

The HOYA HD nano Mk II CIR-PL filter allows you to create unique effects in your photo which are not achievable through editing software in post-production.

One such effect is the controlling of light reflections on glass or water surfaces. The HOYA HD nano Mk II CIR-PL allows you to control light waves entering your lens, through the filtering of all polarized light. This allows you to see below surfaces of water. This effect is also great on glass surfaces. By removing reflections, you can look through the glass and into the interiors.

ENHANCE CONTRAST AND COLOUR SATURATION

Polarised light is not limited to surface reflections, but light shining directly from the sky is polarised too. Air molecules, moisture and dust scatter sunlight, and this light can be filtered out with the HOYA HD nano Mk II CIR-PL. This allows you to greatly increase the contrast of the sky, removing haze, and enhancing blue hues.
