  • Converts 3800°K light sources to match 5500°K daylight-balanced film
  • Designed for film photographers
  • Produces accurate colors on daylight film when shooting with incandescent lights
  • 6 layers of HMC multi-coating

The 80C color conversion filter transforms the color of the ambient light entering the lens by adding blue to the overall exposure. This helps match the scene to your film's white balance.

The Hoya 80C filter is helpful when:

  • You are using daylight-balanced film (5500°K) and the light source is 3800°K. 

  • You are shooting with daylight-balanced film at night. The 80C produces a warmer look than the 80A or 80B.

HOYA Multi-Coated (HMC) filters are recommended for enhancing the performance of today's multicoated lenses. These popular filters minimize reflection, reduce flare and ghosting, and result in over 97% average light transmission.
