Hoya UX II CIR-PL Filter 72 mm – Premium Circular Polarizer for Lens Protection and Glare Reduction
The Hoya UX II CIR-PL is a high-quality circular polarizing filter designed for 72 mm lens systems. It reduces unwanted reflections and glare from non-metallic surfaces while enhancing color saturation and contrast in outdoor and studio photography.
Effectively cuts glare and reflections from water, glass, and foliage for cleaner, more vivid images
72 mm filter diameter fits standard 72 mm lens threads — no adapter required
Ultra-thin 0.06 mm profile prevents vignetting on wide-angle lenses
Unlike standard polarizers, the UX II series uses a multi-coating process that minimizes flare and ghosting even in challenging lighting conditions. The circular polarization design ensures full compatibility with modern autofocus and metering systems.
Ideal for...
Landscape photographers working with water reflections, architectural photographers shooting through glass, and videographers capturing outdoor scenes with high dynamic range. Also suited for studio product photography where controlled reflections are essential.
Application of Hoya UX II CIR-PL Filter
Screw the filter directly onto a 72 mm lens thread

Hoya is a Japanese optical manufacturer founded in 1941, specializing in camera filters, lenses, and optical glass for professional and consumer photography. The UX II CIR-PL line represents their mid-to-high-end polarizing filter series, known for consistent build quality and reliable polarization performance across a wide range of lens diameters.
A circular polarizing filter (CIR-PL) reduces reflections and glare from non-metallic surfaces such as water, glass, and foliage. It also deepens blue skies and enhances color saturation, resulting in more contrast-rich and vivid images.
The filter fits any lens with a 72 mm filter thread. Check your lens barrel for the diameter marking (often shown as a symbol with the number 72 and the Greek letter phi). If your lens has a different diameter, a step-up or step-down ring adapter is required.
