The HOYA PROND32 GRAD is a high-quality graduated neutral density (ND) filter designed to balance brightness levels between the sky and the foreground in landscape photography. With a 0 to 5-stop light reduction, this filter ensures well-balanced exposures, preventing blown-out highlights while maintaining detail in shadows. Its blender-style transition provides a smooth gradient, making it highly versatile for scenes with complex or uneven horizons.
This filter is perfect for photographers who struggle with overexposed skies and underexposed foregrounds. The blender-type graduation ensures a seamless transition from ND32 (5 stops) to clear, avoiding harsh lines that can occur with soft or hard-edged ND filters. This makes it particularly useful for landscapes with trees, mountains, or other irregular elements on the horizon.
The HOYA PROND32 GRAD incorporates ACCU-ND technology, which ensures a truly neutral colour balance. Unlike lower-quality ND filters that may introduce colour casts, this filter maintains natural tones, making it a reliable choice for professional photography and videography.
The filter features a low-profile rotating aluminium frame, allowing precise positioning of the gradient for optimal exposure control. A marker on the rim indicates the area of deepest density, helping photographers quickly align the filter to suit their composition.
Made from 1.1mm professional-grade optical glass, the HOYA PROND32 GRAD offers excellent image clarity and durability. It also includes anti-reflection and water-repellent coatings on both sides, reducing unwanted reflections and protecting against moisture, dust, and smudges.
Unlike square or rectangular graduated filters that require a holder system, this filter features a round, screw-in design, making it more convenient for photographers on the go. It also includes a front filter thread, allowing you to stack additional filters or attach a lens cap when not in use.
The HOYA PROND32 GRAD is ideal for landscape photographers and videographers looking for a simple and effective way to control exposure differences in high-contrast scenes. Whether you're shooting sunsets, seascapes, or mountainous terrains, this filter helps achieve natural, well-balanced images with minimal post-processing. Its blender-style graduation, ACCU-ND technology, and rotating frame make it a versatile and reliable tool for any photographer’s kit.
