Hoya 62mm 62 mm PRO ND8 NDx8 ACCU-ND Multi-Coated Neutral Density Filter

Good allround ND filter
Not had the chance to use it in anger but I have made tests with it fitted to my Fuji 90mm f2 lens. It reduces exposure by 3 stops and in daylight I was able to reduce shutter speed enough to use fill flash with aperture f2. A 5 stop (PROND32) makes a great companion for even faster lenses and brighter daylight. Used either singly or doubled or in tandem with a CP (- 1.5 to 2 stops) you can vary the effects on moving water etc.

Best for the job
I have 4 of these for 3 cameras and one as spare. Never lost one yet, unlike other makes which are not supplied with the rubber "O" ring that keeps a grip but still allows for removal if I want to use a screw-in mechanical remote release. You even get a spare "O" ring in case you lose one when doing this.

Great street lens
Central sharpness is good even wide open but the edges are soft - a known issue with this lens. Sharper across frame at smaller apertures but as a "street" lens the soft edges can be a plus and certainly not a problem. It is well known as a fast focusing lens. If utmost IQ to the edges when wide open is your aim the 18-55 is better but restricted to max f2.8. Provided there is no bright sun shining directly into the lens it is pretty flare proof even without the hood which makes for a remarkably compact unit.
