HOYA Filter

Hoya 62mm Alpha II Circular Polarizer camera filter

SKU CH-NDQ2-BWXQG

A 62 mm circular polarizer that cuts glare and deepens skies with a thin frame to reduce vignetting

  • Reduces glare and reflections with circular polarizing glass
  • Darkens blue skies for deeper contrast in scenic shots
  • Thin frame design minimizes vignetting on wide-angle lenses
  • Rotatable front element allows precise polarization control
  • Lightweight construction keeps the filter compact for travel

Essential polarising filter for 62mm lenses

The Hoya Alpha II Circular Polarizer fits 62mm filter threads and uses clear glass to cut glare from non-metallic surfaces. A thin frame reduces vignetting on wide-angle lenses while the rotatable mount lets you dial in the exact polarisation angle. Lightweight construction keeps the setup balanced on smaller camera bodies.

Thin frame and rotatable mount improve usability

The slimmer profile minimises corner darkening that thicker rings often cause at wider focal lengths. Smooth rotation allows precise control over reflection removal and sky darkening without removing the filter. Clear glass maintains colour neutrality so no colour cast is introduced into the image.

Suited to landscape and outdoor photographers

Photographers who need to deepen blue skies, suppress water or glass reflections, and boost foliage contrast will benefit. Shooters requiring thread sizes other than 62mm, or those wanting multi-coated nano surfaces, should look at alternative filters.

Questions about this item

Will the 62mm filter threads wear out from repeated mounting and dismounting?

The filter uses standard 62mm threads; normal careful mounting will not wear them out, but cross-threading or forcing can damage the aluminium frame.

What is the first limit you hit when shooting all day with this polariser?

The thin frame minimises vignetting on wide angles, so the practical limit is the one-to-two-stop light loss that requires longer exposures or higher ISO.

Does the filter add noticeable heat or noise to the lens during extended use?

It is passive glass with no electronics, so it generates no heat and makes no noise; the only effect is the expected reduction in light transmission.
