HOYA Filter 55mm Neutral Density .3 Multi Coated Glass camera filter

55mm Neutral Density .3 Filter

The HOYA 55mm Neutral Density .3 filter reduces light by one f-stop without shifting colour balance. It is designed for photographers who need wider apertures or slower shutter speeds in bright conditions. The multi-coated glass minimises flare and ghosting. Suitable for both colour and black-and-white work.

Installation and common issues

The filter threads directly onto any 55mm lens front; no tools are required. Ensure the threads are clean before fitting to avoid cross-threading. Over-tightening can make removal difficult later. Vignetting may occur on ultra-wide lenses when stacking multiple filters.

Compatibility check

Verify that your lens has a 55mm filter thread before ordering. Confirm the filter diameter marked on the lens barrel or cap matches this size. Check whether your lens hood attaches over the filter or requires removal. Ensure adequate clearance if you plan to stack additional filters.
