55mm Neutral Density Filter for Photographers

The HOYA PROND EX 8 is a 55mm screw-in filter that reduces incoming light by three stops. It is designed for still and video shooters who need precise exposure control without changing aperture or shutter speed. The filter threads directly onto compatible lens barrels for immediate use.

0.9 Density with ACCU-ND Colour Accuracy

The single specification that determines suitability is the optical density of .9, which equals a three-stop reduction. HOYA’s ACCU-ND technology attenuates visible and infrared light equally, preventing the colour shift common in lesser filters. This ensures neutral tonal balance straight from the camera.

Consistent Performance During Long Exposures

Under sustained use the filter maintains its neutral character because the IR-blocking layer is integrated into the glass rather than applied as a surface coating. It resists the colour drift that appears when inferior filters heat up during extended video takes or multi-minute still exposures. The precision-milled aluminium frame stays flat, avoiding vignetting on wide-angle lenses.

Questions about this item

What does the 0.9 density figure mean once the filter is on my lens?

It cuts the light reaching the sensor by three stops so you can use slower shutter speeds or wider apertures in bright conditions.

What does the ACCU-ND label tell me about infrared handling?

It means the filter reduces visible and infrared light equally preventing the colour shift common with lesser ND filters.

Will the 55 mm thread fit my lens and what clearance does the frame need?

It screws onto any 55 mm front thread; the slim aluminium ring keeps vignetting to a minimum on wide-angle lenses.
