H&Y Filters added new sizes to its Nova Series Variable ND Filters, first released on November 7, 2025. These new sizes debuted January 5, 2026. The lineup previously only had an 82mm size, but now five new sizes (52/58/62/67/77mm) have been added, bringing the total to six sizes.
What is the H&Y Nova Series?
The Nova series is a 2-in-1 solution for video and photography that combines a Vari ND filter with a circular polarizing (CPL) filter. With one filter, you can control exposure by approximately 1.5 to 5 stops (ND3 to 32) and adjust reflections with the CPL.
This product features a screw-in mechanism for attaching to the lens, while the front part is magnetic. It can be stacked with the company’s “EVO Series” filters (e.g., Black Promist) one size larger at the front. The filter frame is also designed to be one size larger at the front, resulting in a thinner frame that reduces vignetting even when using wide-angle lenses.

The CPL adjusts through loosening the fixing screw on the frame and rotating the entire colored frame. The variable ND can be adjusted by tightening the screw and turning the handle with the orange accent. The handle is luminous, making it highly visible in shade or at dusk.
In terms of optical performance, the lens uses B270 glass from the German company SCHOTT, and is polished to a high degree of flatness to maintain the lens’s original resolution. Furthermore, the lens’s unique low-reflection nanocoating provides anti-fouling, water-repellent, anti-static, and scratch-resistant properties.

In terms of design, the frame is in vintage gold color and the lens cap has a unique magnetic design, emphasizing stylishness.
For users who frequently change lenses, the company recommends using it in conjunction with the REVORING variable step ring. More sizes of the EVO series, which are magnetic and stackable at the tip, will be added as they arrive.
