A 58mm circular glass camera filter with a black knurled rim and multi-coated surface

HOYA Filter

HOYA Filter 58mm Sparkle 6x Multi-Coated Glass Filter

SKU CH-2MBX-CXRNY

A 58mm multi-coated glass filter that renders point lights as six-point stars with minimal bleed and a maximum surface reflection of .5%

  • Creates 6-point star patterns on point light sources
  • Minimises point bleed compared to regular star filters
  • Rotate to change the direction of star points
  • Digital multi-coated glass limits surface reflection to .5%
  • Black-rimmed glass reduces random internal reflections

Creative 58mm Star-Effect Filter

The HOYA Sparkle 6x is a 58mm multi-coated glass filter that turns point light sources into six-pointed stars, adding a fairytale sparkle to night scenes, cityscapes and festive portraits. It is built for photographers who want an in-camera creative effect without relying on post-processing.

Low Reflection and Easy Handling

Digital multi-coated glass limits surface reflections to a maximum of .5 percent, while the black-rimmed glass reduces random internal flare. A knurled edge makes the filter easy to attach and remove, even with cold or damp fingers.

Direction Control and Lens Protection

Rotating the filter changes the orientation of the star points, letting you align the effect with the composition. The supplied UV absorption filter case protects the glass when it is not in use.

Questions about this item

How do I attach the 58mm Sparkle 6x filter and which step is often missed?

Screw the filter onto the lens threads using the knurled rim for grip; the step often missed is rotating the filter after mounting to align the star-point direction you want.

What maintenance will the multi-coated glass need over time?

Clean the coatings gently with a microfibre cloth and lens fluid; the black-rimmed glass reduces internal reflections but does not eliminate the need for regular dust removal.

At what reflection level does the coating limit performance under sustained bright light?

The digital multi-coated glass caps surface reflection at .5%, so heavy direct-light scenes will hit that ceiling before the star effect saturates.
