Hoya has introduced the Starscape light pollution filters, available in diameters from 49mm-82mm, which are designed to filter out the yellow and green light pollution created by distant street lights and often ruins astrophotography shots.

One image can change us.

A picture, a moment can change the way we feel. Change how we see ourselves. Change our understanding and change the rules. Provoke and change history.

MPB puts photo and video kit into more hands, more sustainably. Every month, visual storytellers sell more than 20,000 cameras and lenses to MPB. Choose used and get affordable access to kit that doesn’t cost the earth. Sell the kit you’re not using to MPB. Trade in for the kit you need to create. Buy used, spend less and get more. Buy. Sell. Trade. Create.

When the Starscape light pollution filter is attached to your lens, it helps create a more natural-looking image and improves overall contrast. Plus, less work is needed in post-processing.

Hoya Starscape filters are made in Japan from the highest quality optical glass, they have low-profile filter frames and are ideal for use with wide and super-wide-angle lenses.

The Hoya Starscape filters will be available in December 2019. For more information, visit the Intro2020 website.
