| "Hoya 58mm HRT Circular Polarizing and UV Filter" |
| "The Hoya UV HRT Circular Polariser filter combines two filters; the UV and Circular Polariser into one high-quality filter in a single ring. The filter cuts through glare by eliminating reflections and ultraviolet (UV) rays; its High Resolution and Transmission polarising film (HRT) enables results with better contrast as well as vivid and saturated colours. It is commonly used for landscape photography and photographing shiny non-metallic materials or surfaces such as water, glass, watches, paintings etc. The Hoya HRT Circular-Polarizer UV Filter is designed to decrease the bluish cast of daylight and block ultraviolet light whilst eliminating reflections and glare. It does this by filtering out light which has turned polarized because of a reflection from a non-metallic surface. Light scatters into what appears to be a haze as light from the sun naturally becomes partially polarized because of reflecting off electrons in air molecules. The product noticeably reduces glare and reflections from non-metallic surfaces and increases the saturation of skies and foliage. The only difference between a circular polarizer and a linear polarizer is that it contains a quarter wave plane that the linear polarizer does not. The purpose of this quarter wave plane is to circularly polarize the linearly polarized light for the use of auto focus and exposure functions. As a result of how the light is broken down and filtered with a linear polarizer, auto focus and exposure accuracy become skewed during use. It permits the use of these functions when the light becomes circularly polarized. Its High-Rate Transparency polarizing film allows the filter to offer approximately 98% average light transmission whilst remaining non-coated. It is built from optical glass and precision milled aluminium frames. Main Features include: • Polarizing filters filter and arrange directionally polarized light perpendicularly to the reflected light, letting much of the light be absorbed. • Reduce reflections and glare by filtering out light which has become polarized because of reflection from a non-metallic surface. • High-Rate Transparency polarizing film aids give approximately 98% average light transmission. • Provides extra saturated and vivid colours as well as clears up haze in distant landscapes. • When used at a 90° angle from the sun it has the strongest effect. • Built from optical glass and precision milled aluminium frames. • 2.5 to 2.8x filter factor lessens exposure by 1.3 to 1.5 stops. • Blocks UV light and decreases bluish cast of daylight. • Plastic filter case for storage and transport. • Non-coated.

HMC Digital UV(C) Filter The Hoya HMC Digital UV(C) Filter is a multi-purpose fine-weather filter that can absorb the ultraviolet rays; often making outdoor photographs hazy and indistinct. The clear UV filter has a multi-purpose use and can be left on the lens to serve as a permanent lens protector, digital photography and used for colour as well as black and white film. This filter is renowned for its ability to minimise reflection at the filter surfaces which reduces flare and ghosting. The result is an average light transmission of over 97%, giving sharp contrast and well balanced colour. Hoya HMC Digital filters are recommended for enhancing the performance of today's multicoated lenses. Other uses include: • Functions as over-all protection filter to minimize moisture, dust and scratches from reaching lens elements. • This filter can be paired with others as its clear filter provides no additional coloration or contrast Circular Polarising Filter The Hoya Circular Polarising Filter allows significant reduction reflections and glare from non-metallic surfaces. For maximum effect a camera angle of 30 degrees from the reflecting surface (glass, water, etc.) is ideal. To appear clearer with a better contrast the Circular Polarising Filter enables colours to become more saturated; this effect can be used to increase the contrast and saturation in blue skies and white clouds. The only difference between a circular polarizer and a linear polarizer is that it contains a quarter wave plane that the linear polarizer does not. The purpose of this quarter wave plane is to circularly polarize the linearly polarized light for the use of auto focus and exposure functions. As a result of how the light is broken down and filtered with a linear polarizer, auto focus and exposure accuracy become skewed during use.

NDx8 Neutral Density Filter Neutral Density filters offer the possibility to achieve otherwise unachievable results and can enable the shooter to adjust exposure without affecting colour balance. ND filters appear grey and reduce the amount of light reaching the film and have no effect on the colour balance. This filter offers a filter factor of 0.9, which is equivalent to 3 stops of light. Other uses include: • Enabling slow shutter speeds to be used, in particularly with high speed films in order to record movement in subjects. For example, waterfalls, clouds, or cars • Reduces depth of field by permitting broader apertures to be used, this helps separate subjects from their background • The filter can be used outdoors in bright situations as it diminishes the effective ISO of high speed film (above ISO 400) • Allows cine and video cameras (which have fixed shutter speeds) to film subjects. An example of these include snow, sand or other bright scenes which could cause overexposure • 8x = ND 0.9 (exposure adjustment = 3 stops, reduces ISO 1/8) Filter Wallet This kit comes with a handy filter pouch that your filters can be safely guarded in and will fit within your gear bag.

PL (Linear Polarising) and PL-CIR (Circular Polarising) filters have the same effect, but it is important that you choose the correct version for your camera. They allow you to remove unwanted reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water, glass etc. They also enable colors to become more saturated and appear clearer, with better contrast. This effect is often used to increase the contrast and saturation in blue skies and white clouds. HOYA's polarising filters do not affect the overall color balance of a shot. How to select the correct Polarising filter: Many of today's cameras use semi-silvered mirrors or prisms to split the light entering the viewfinder in order to calculate exposure and focusing distance. PL (Linear Polarising) filters can sometimes interact with these items to give unpredictable exposure or focusing. So we recommend that you choose a PL-CIR filter unless you have a manual focus camera which has no beam splitter."

This permits aperture values to be set dependant on the desired effect and allows a much greater range of shutter speed. For example, in full sunlight crowds of people or water can be blurred using a long shutter speed. Depending on the situation the practical exposure range and light transmittance will vary. Main Features Include: • Filter Factor NDx3-NDx400 • Approx. 1.5 to 8.5 stops light reduction. • Black Almite Frame with satin finish to reduce reflections. • Low Profile Frame – avoids vignetting on super wide-angle lenses, will accept a clip-cap. • Rotating inner filter ring with scale indicating max. through to min. settings The Hoya Variable Neutral Density Filter provides a convenient way to maintain exposure control by being able to vary the amount of light entering the camera by 1.5 to 9 stops (0.45 to 2.7 density for Cine use). The precision built-in double ring design allows the outer ring rotates to control amount of neutral density effect anywhere within the 1.5 – 9 stop range. This double-ring design is also thin to reduce the likelihood of vignetting with wide-angle lenses. This control allows for many special effects such as being able to control depth of field by using a wider aperture or create or control motion blur by being able to choose just the right slower shutter speeds for perfect blurring. The HOYA Variable Neutral Density filter can take the place of a range of graded ND filters which saves money by only needing to buy one filter and saves time on location or on set by not needing to change filters constantly to change the effect, just turn the right to get the effect you want. The HOYA Variable Neutral Density filter puts you in control. This is an especially useful tool when creating motion blur in moving water such as waterfalls, rivers and crashing waves. Other examples of good times to use very slow shutter speeds to create blur are; moving vehicles, trains, cars and congested city traffic; blurred panning effects where the subject, a runner, bicyclist or car is clear but the background around it is blurred from the camera following its movement Variable Neutral Density filters, and ND filters in general have these main uses: • Slow down shutter speed for motion blurring effects like waterfalls, cars or blurred panning movement to make the subject stand out from the background. • Allow wider apertures to be used to decrease depth-of-field, literally focusing more attention on the subject. • Allow higher ISO films to be used in brighter lighting conditions • Allow cine/video cameras, which have a fixed shutter-speed range, to film on brighter lighting conditions such as the beach or in snow on a sunny day. The Hoya Variable Density filter uses high-quality optical glass from Hoya Corporation, the world’s largest optical glass manufacturer and is available in sizes 52mm to 82mm. For best results Hoya recommends using a tripod when photographing with slow shutter speeds. Notes: The practical exposure range and light transmittance will vary depending on the situation. When using the filter near or at MIN a cross-like dark pattern will appear across the image and cannot be eliminated. This is a property of the filter and all variable ND filters Variable 0.45-2.7 Neutral Density Filter Reduce Exposure by 1.5-9 Stops Darkens Entire Image Greater Control Over Exposure Settings Allows Wider Aperture This filter has been designed to fit all lenses with a 72mm thread size. Check the end of your lens or inside your lens cap for lens diameter."

| "Hoya 62mm HMC NDx4 Filter" |
| "In conditions of extreme light intensity, such as sunshine on snowy mountains or on the beach, or when using a camcorder, ND (Neutral Density) filters are recommended as essential. Neutral Density filters are often ignored by photographers, but they have several uses and offer the possibility to achieve otherwise unachievable results. ND filters appear grey and reduce the amount of light reaching the film, they have no effect on colour balance. The Hoya HMC NDx4 Filter decreases the quantity of light entering the lens by 2 f/stops, permitting wider apertures to be selected. This is perfect for portraiture to shrink depth of field. Subject appears crisp and clear while the background becomes a soft blur. The ND4 Filter is widely used for subjects such as waterfalls and other nature scenes to blur the moving elements and emphasize the movement. Four main uses: 1) To enable slow shutter speeds to be used, especially with fast films, to record movement in subjects such as waterfalls, clouds, cars, seas etc. 2) To decrease depth of field by allowing wider apertures to be used, which helps separate subjects from their background. 3) To decrease the effective ISO of high speed film (ie: above ISO400) and allow it to be used outdoors in blight situations. 4) To allow cine and video cameras (which have fixed shutter speeds) to film subjects such as snow, sand or other bright scenes which would normally cause over-exposure. Neutral Density Factors • 2x = ND.3 (exposure adjustment = 1 stop, reduces ISO 1/2) • 4x = ND.6 (exposure adjustment = 2 stops, reduces ISO 1/4) • 8x = ND.9 (exposure adjustment = 3 stops, reduces ISO 1/8) Hoya filters ensure photographers clear, sharp and accurate images by continuing to make their filters from quality glass. Filters are produced to provide even colour, polished thickness and tolerance and all surfaces are ground. Three-Layer HMC Coating Optical Glass, Aluminum Filter Ring Allowing wider apertures This filter has been designed to fit all lenses with a 62mm thread size. Check the end of your lens or inside your lens cap for lens diameter."

| "Hoya 82mm UV & IR Cut Filter" |
| "The Hoya 82mm UV and IR Cut Filter allows only the visible spectrum of light rays to enter the camera and get captured by the sensor. It does this when the lens filter is attached to your lens. Both higher frequency ultraviolet rays and lower frequency infrared light rays are blocked out by using the UV and IR Cut Filter. the CCD and CMOS sensors found in our cameras are extremely susceptible to catching UV and IR rays, there just outside the visible spectrum and have a very negative impact on image quality. This filter is used on a digital camera and the video, which do not have an IR protection filter toward an image sensor or were remodelled. This is important because unfiltered CCD and CMOS sensors are extremely susceptible to UV and IR rays just outside the visible spectrum that can have a very negative impact on image quality. The Hoya UV & IR light transmission curve shows the sharp-cut nature of the filter glass and coatings as well as the consistent light transmission in the visible spectrum. This curve demonstrates a more even visible light transmission than the closest competitor. This means that sharper images with more depth and finer, richer colour gradations are possible with the Hoya UV & IR Cut filter. The effect of the filter is achieved mainly though the multi-layer coatings on the surface of the filter. Hoya begins with crystal clear, colourless optical glass and then bonds coating to this filter that block both UV and IR light rays outside of the range mentioned. There is light incidence angle dependence in the transmission factor because over layer is thick, so this filter doesn't suit use by a wide-angle lens. It is suitable for heavenly body photography. Key Features: • Produces better accuracy of colour in digital images than found in most traditional IR filters, when using colour CCD or CMOS camera sensors that are particularly susceptible to UV and IR rays. • Only cuts through those light rays that fall within the visible spectrum of light, this filter blocks both ultraviolet rays found below 390 nm, as well as infrared rays above 700 nm • This combination filter cuts through atmospheric haze to a greater degree than otherwise found. • Compatible with stackable standard filters for a better combination of effects. • Provides support with low-profile and a rigid aluminium filter ring. An Important Note Regarding Wide-Angle Lenses: Increasing the angle of incidence, meaning light rays entering the filter from an extreme angle as is the case with super-wide and ultra-wide angle lenses, leads to an increasing colour shift as the angle increases. This is based on the physics of light and the nature of the coatings. All UV-IR cut filters have the same properties in this regard. It is not recommended this filter be used with lenses having a field of view greater than 60 degrees. Please Note: The UV-IR CUT filter is intended for use with digital SLR cameras and cine cameras that do NOT have an IR filter installed in front of the sensor. Colour balance effects can occur when this filter is used with cameras that have an IR filter installed in front of the sensor. Please consult your camera's owner’s manual before use. Available in sizes 49mm through 82mm. Cuts Out UV Rays Below 390 nm Cuts Out IR Rays Above 700 mn Retains Visible Light Spectrum Reduce Effects of Atmospheric Haze Clearer and Sharper Pictures Outdoors This filter has been produced to fit all lenses with a 82mm thread size.
