H&Y HD EVO ND & CPL Filters - Magnetic Snap-On & Screw-On
As a photographer or videographer, do you want to stop struggling with filters and focus on your shot? Then the H&Y HD EVO system is a godsend for makers like you: a unique filter system that you can both screw-on and attach magnetically. Instead of screwing on each filter, you simply click them onto the lens with a magnetic adapter ring. This allows you to change filters at lightning speed or stack several filters on top of each other. This saves time, avoids frustration and gives you the freedom to react quickly to changing light or a unique moment. So you can focus on capturing the moment.
Why choose the H&Y HD EVO magnetic filter system?
1. Flexible filter attachment: magnetic and screw-on
The H&Y HD EVO system can be used in two ways: simply switch between the magnetic click-on attachment for speed or the screw-on attachment for maximum security. So you always choose the right method for your situation.
With the magnetic snap on, you simply snap a filter on or off in a split second. This is especially handy for landscapes where the light changes quickly, street photography or when capturing events.
Screwing on provides maximum stability and peace of mind, especially when critical image quality is paramount, during long exposure times or in situations where vibration can be a problem (e.g. on gimbals). It also gives a little less vignetting when using ultra-wide-angle lenses.
2. Easily swap and stack magnetic filters
Swap between magnetic filters at lightning speed or stack multiple filters on top of each other. Utilise a complete range of high-quality ND, CPL and Fog filters for any photographic or cinematic challenge. The extra-thin design of the HD EVO filters (about 4 mm) minimises vignetting, even on wide-angle 18mm lenses. Although vignetting is not completely eliminated when stacking multiple filters, the system ensures that this effect remains minimal.
3. Top-quality ND and CPL filters for photo and video
The H&Y HD EVO filters are made of premium multi-coated HD glass. They deliver razor-sharp results, true-to-life colours and have a long service life. Advanced coatings minimise reflections and flare, ensuring maximum clarity and contrast. No matter whether you work in bright sunlight, twilight or under studio lighting: your shots will be clean, consistent and professional. You'll get the most out of every photo or video, from landscapes to documentaries and creative projects.
4. Reliable magnetic attachment: filters that stay put
The magnetic filters of the H&Y HD EVO system click into place with conviction. They feel solid and reliable, with no slack. The powerful magnets ensure that your filters always stay firmly in place, even during movement, transport or outdoor shooting. Unlike some other systems, you don't have to worry about a filter coming loose in your bag or during use. That gives confidence every time you pick up the camera.
Popular filters: EVO HD ND3-32+CPL and ND32-512+CPL
Within the H&Y HD EVO system, the ND3-32+CPL and the ND32-512+CPL are the most popular filters of choice. They offer photographers and videographers tremendous control over exposure and creative effects.
Both filters are thin for a VND+CPL (only 6.8 mm), stackable and work seamlessly with other magnetic HD EVO filters such as the ND and Mist filters. With screw mounting, no vignetting occurs at focal lengths above 18mm, and with magnetic mounting it is from 24mm onwards. The magnetic mount allows you to change between a variety of filter combinations at lightning speed, greatly increasing your creative flexibility in the field.
HD EVO ND3-32+CPL Filter kit
The ND3-32+CPL filter reduces 1.5 to 5 stops of light and is perfect for situations where you want to subtly dim the light, such as light cloud cover or golden hour. We recommend this filter for wide-angle to standard lenses. Ideal for video or photography where you want to maintain a natural motion blur.
HD EVO ND32-512+CPL Filter kit
The ND32-512+CPL filter offers much stronger light reduction with 5 to 9 stops. This allows you to work with slow shutter speeds even in bright sunlight or use a wide aperture for a shallow depth of field. We recommend this filter for standard to telephoto lenses. Think dramatic landscapes or dreamy portraits.

Street and travel photography
You work with a compact system, travel light and have little time to change filters. Magnetically click a Black fog or ND filter on and off while walking through town, for example. Stacking filters for creative effects is also easy.
