Hoya has launched new USA-exclusive Solas infrared neutral density filters. The company says its new IRND filters offer a consistent color balance across the density range while also suppressing infrared, the end result being a balanced image with reduced ‘IR contamination’ like excessive digital artifacts and color shifts.
Hoya has launched the new Solar IRND filters in the following sizes and densities:
0. 3 (1-stop) – 49mm ~ 82mm
0. 6 (2-stop) – 49mm ~ 82mm
0. 9 (3-stop) – 46mm ~ 82mm
1. 2 (4-stop) – 49mm ~ 82mm
1. 5 (5-stop) – 49mm ~ 82mm
1. 8 (6-stop) – 46mm ~ 82mm
2. 7 (9-stop) – 49mm ~ 82mm
3. 0 (10-stop) – 46mm ~ 82mm
B&H Photo currently lists the filters with the following prices: 46mm ($48. 90), 49mm ($48. 90), 52mm ($53. 90), 55mm ($61. 90), 58mm ($69. 90), 62mm ($85. 90), 67mm ($93. 90), 72mm ($100. 90), 77mm ($120. 90), and 82mm ($151. 90).
