Due to its light pink colour, the Hoya Skylight (1B) reduces the bluish cast of daylight and produces a pleasing, warmer picture tone. Wise initial investments, they help protect your lens from dust, moisture and scratches, which can lead to costly repairs.
Multicoated to minimise reflection at the filter surfaces which reduces flare and ghosting.
Key Features
