Used with the Nikon D800, Nikon 24-70/2.8 and Nikon 70-200/4 (with a step up ring) the Hoya Pro ND 1000 and Hoya Pro ND 64 filters work very well. They give sharp pictures with very good colour and no extra optical vignetting (ND filters from other brands do give optical vignetting because they consist of dark glass, while the Hoya Pro ND filters have a metal coating which gives an even light distribution).I measure the exposure and white balance with an UV filter on or without filter and then set exposure and white balance to manual (using WB presets) and compensate the exposure when the ND 1000 filter is mounted. The white balance needs a B4 compensation for this filter,

Recently taken delivery of this. On a 700d crop sensor camera I can use the filter on a 77mm thread canon 24-70 and (with a 77-67mm adapter ring) a 67mm thread canon 10-18mm stm lens without any vignetting / obstruction at all. I'm sure other lenses will be the same. The ability to use the filter with the 10-18mm stm lens really surprised me as 67mm filters screwed direct to the lens are visible in shot at the 10mm end and vignette to varying degrees at the narrower angles.I've had a good look at the images today and the shift in colour balance (when using Auto White Balance) is minimal to negligible (in the conditions the camera appeared to render slight inconsistent /

Bought this filter for landscape photography for long exposures of moving water. Allows for slower shutter speed to capture movement, say in a situation where normally you would need a shutter speed of a 60th of a second this filter would allow you to open the shutter for a full second. Obviously you need a tripod or solid surface to place camera on also to prevent blurring of image.Also would allow you to use a larger aperture and get a shallower depth of fieldThe digital multi-coating is supposed to reduce the appearance of lens flare and ghosting.I find this is enough to capture the movement and when taking photos at sunset when light levels were lower I was able to open the shutter for 45 seconds or so using this filter.

Having bought Hoya products in the past, I was hopeful this filter would be of a similar high quality and I haven't been disappointed. The filter certainly seems to cut out plenty of light (I haven't tested if it is the full 10 stops or not), and having taken some test shots there doesn't appear to be any loss in picture quality or any colour cast. The filter is easy to attach & remove and feels very well made as I've come to expect from Hoya products.My only small niggle is that if using this filter with another (such as a polarising filter), then at 16mm you do get a little bit of vignetting on the photo. When up to about 18mm this isn't a problem and obviously it's fine if it's the only screw-in filter being used.As for delivery,

First ND filter that I ever bought and I'm glad I did. Gives lovely results and is cheaper than the 100x100mm square filters.PROS- Relatively good value for money- Good quality- Case that it comes in does a good job of protecting the filter and is nice and small.CONS- It is quite wide and although it can be used with other filters I have experienced some vignetting when stacking up.- Not great if you want to use it with lots of different lenses with different filter thread diametersAll in all I would recommend buying this if you are just starting out with long exposures and don't think you'll be using many other filters.

This is an excellent product, its very well made. It doesn't seem to affect sharpness, but its benefits in allowing longer exposures in bright light and ultra long exposures at say, just after the sun has dipped below the horizon, are fantastic. If you use a ND Grad set up with an adapter and holder, I'd not recommend it, rather get a slide in ND filter that is compatible with your filter holder. The filter is rather thick so it means your ND Grad kit sits quite far forward which means the filter holder can intrude into the edges of the image, depending on how wide your lens is.The image attached is a 5 minute exposure using this ND 1000 filter.

Great filter and worth every penny. Unlike other 10 stop neutral density filters, this one does not leave a colour cast. Experienced hands will know this but for those who are trying this for the first time, you will need an exposure chart to work out how long you need to open the shutter for. You will need to take a reading with your camera's meter and then reference the chart which tells you how long to expose it for. You then set this up on your camera using the manual settings option and hey presto! Some experimentation may be necessary to get it just right for your particular camera but as I have said, it produces great results.

A few years ago, I bought a B+W 10-stop filter in preparation for a landscape photography course I was due to attend. Every single image (used on a Canon 5D) had an awful purple colour cast, which kind of ruined my appetite for long exposure photography.I now have a Fuji X-T10 and decided to take the plunge with this Hoya 10-stop filter, in readiness for a coastal holiday. Having used it, I'm very impressed. The resulting images had no visible colour cast and were as sharp as if there'd been no filter in place. It's not especially cheap, but I suppose you get what you pay for. I purchased the 52mm version.

I tend to buy B+W filters as the cameras I own generally have high end lenses and I don't think it's sensible to skimp on the quality of glass you put in front of those lenses. That said, an ND filter of this type for me is for an occasional bit of long exposure fun so I thought I would go with a slightly more affordable filter as I will only use it occasionally for non-professional reasons.That said, the few pictures i've taken with it have been impressive and for no reason that I can think of do I feel that it's a hinderance in any way. It's well made and the image quality is excellent.

I've had this filter for over 2 months now and has become extremely useful these past few months, it has allowed me to get pictures I would have never been able to have created. It allows me to become creative with my shots, especially in day time when long exposures of 20sec would have never have been possible. It made my trip to the alps all the better, and continues to be a gem in my kit bag. It also works extremely well with my Panasonic GX7 M4/3 camera as in good light, it is still able to meter through it.

It is not as dark as I thought it would be so I bought an ND32 as well which I sometimes use together with it to make an equivalent ND8. For relatively long exposure silky smooth sea water shots even both these together are not enough where an ND500 (9 stop) would be more suitable enabling you to slow down from 1/125 time to 4s. It all depends on what you want to photograph as to what strength ND filter you want. One grade will not do everything so you either want more than one or a variable ND filter.

I read many reviews and watched technical test videos online before buying this filter. It may not be the fanciest or most expensive, but the tests showed that it's an accurate filter with no serious colour problems or vignetting, and in use I'm happy to confirm that this is a filter you won't have to worry will mess up your photos with weird colours. I'd only spend more to get a system that was easier to remove, like some of the ones that are magnetic, but they cost considerably more.

Excellent filter from Hoya. This filter is inexpensive, yet despite the modest price, produces excellent images with no degradation in image quality or colour casts. It has also proven to be robust and well made. I live near the coast and my filter is often splashed with water. I have cleaned it numerous times and the glass is still free of any marks or scratches.This is definitely a must buy for any photographer, affordable, produces excellent images and is well made.

With something like video or photo, quality is so important so why cheap out on a lesser filter to save a few pound...HOYA is well known in the industry for its quality and this product does not let it down. I use this in all my videos and has been a great buy! One little tip is, do your research and find out how to get the best out of it to ensure you get no dark edges or vignetting.Check my youtube channel for how I use it!TW - Tim Williams Youtube

Highly recommended.I spent a good while researching ND filters before I bought this one as the prices and performance are variable to say the least. I went with Hoya as they get good reviews for being colour neutral (important as I don't want to be fighting weird WB issues) and they're a well respected brand that I've used for years. I've used mine dozens of times on my Samyang 12mm f2 with fantastic results - just what I wanted and perfect results.
