## Summary description

The Hoya SPARKLE 6X is a 72 mm center spot camera filter designed to create a unique sparkle effect in your photography. It features a black color and comes in a single pack. Ideal for enhancing portraits and still life photography, this filter adds a creative touch to your images, making them stand out with a soft focus around the center.

## Long description

The Hoya SPARKLE 6X 72 mm center spot filter creates a moderately sized, fairytale-like six-point star pattern from point light sources while softly enhancing the light. Designed for creative portrait, still life, landscape and astrophotography, this black 72 mm filter generates subtle light beams that resemble tiny sparks and adds a gentle soft-focus effect around the center of the image.
Advantages
The SPARKLE 6X produces a controlled six-cross star effect without producing overly long streaks that dominate the image. Its design balances the strength of the light source and the length of the light rays to keep the effect subtle and natural. The front frame is rotatable, allowing you to adjust the angle of the cross pattern. In scenes with few strong light sources the filter also yields a soft, dreamy atmosphere and can be intensified by using longer focal lengths.
Suitable for
Portrait photography
Flower and still-life photography
Night sky and astrophotography (bright stars)
Landscape and illuminated-scene photography
Key specifications
Model: Hoya SPARKLE 6X
Mount size: 72 mm
Filter type: Center spot / Star (6-point)
Color: Black
Pack quantity: 1
EAN: 0024066070852
How to use
Screw the Hoya SPARKLE 6X onto a 72 mm lens thread and rotate the front frame to set the desired angle of the six-point star. Compose so that point light sources (stars, distant lights, reflections) are included in the frame; the cross effect originates from single point sources and may not appear for broad or tubular lights such as fluorescent tubes. Adjust aperture, focal length and exposure to control the visibility and intensity of the star effect: smaller apertures and brighter point sources increase the prominence of rays, while telephoto focal lengths strengthen the soft effect. For astrophotography, focus on bright stars to achieve crisp six-point stars.
Usage recommendations
For best results, use the SPARKLE 6X with distinct point light sources and darker backgrounds; move farther from large or diffuse lights if the effect is unclear. If images are too dark when shooting illuminated scenes, increase exposure compensation; reduce it if images are too bright. Be aware that very wide angles can distort rays, and at very small apertures (around f/22) rays may appear dotted. In some backlit or very strong-light conditions a mesh-shaped flare may occur.
