55 mm Star Effect Filter
The HOYA 55 mm Creative Star 8X Cross Screen filter adds an eight-beam flare to bright points of light. It is intended for photographers who want to turn night illuminations, water reflections or glints through foliage into a pronounced star pattern without post-processing.
Rotating Frame Optical Glass
The filter uses high-quality optical glass with etched line patterns that generate the eight cross beams. A rotating front frame lets you align the star orientation to suit each composition while the glass construction maintains clarity and resists everyday handling marks.
Single Thread Diameter Only
The 55 mm thread fits lenses with that exact filter diameter; lenses with larger or smaller threads cannot use this filter directly. The effect is fixed at eight beams, so scenes needing a different ray count or a subtler highlight treatment will require another filter type.

Questions about this item
What thread size does the Hoya 55mm Creative Star 8X Cross Screen filter use to mount on the lens?
The filter has a 55mm thread that screws directly onto any lens with the same diameter.
What physical clearance does the filter frame need when attached to a 55mm lens?
The slim frame adds only a few millimetres in front of the front element, so it clears most lens hoods and caps.
How is the star effect oriented once the Hoya 55mm Creative Star 8X filter is fitted?
Rotate the outer ring after screwing it on to align the eight beams with your composition.
