A Hoya 46mm 82 Hoya Multi-Coated (HMC) Glass filter is a light balancing filter used to increase the colour temperature slightly for a cooler tone. This light blue filter absorbs the excessive yellow-red light from daylight in the morning and evening hours and keeps skin tones close to natural.
Multi-coated to minimise reflection at the filter surfaces which reduces flare and ghosting. Note: Whereas the 81 Series of filters creates a feeling of warmth, the 82 Series creates a feeling of coolness
Key Features
- Maintains natural flesh tones; Prevents reddish cast
- Can create mood of coolness

- As one of the premier filter manufacturers, Hoya filters continue to made from quality glass assuring the photographer clear, sharp and accurate images
