I read an article about that recently, and it got good reviews. I can't remember if I read it online or in print. I believe the article compared the Pro with the non-pro, and the Pro was better.

Good reviews here -

And not so good -

Hello outsider,

Which ND are you referring to?
I use the Hoya ND400 and it is excellent...
A very slight colour cast sometimes, subject to light type and condition but it is a slightly blue cast which is far easier to correct in PP than some of the warmer casts caused by other ND's.
I tried HiTech once and they were particularly bad for warm casts... The warmer casts are much harder, sometimes impossible, to correct completely...

Hope that helps you?

Im interseted in the nd8 or nd16 for 3 & 4 stops. I know Hoya has quality optics, I was just looking for someone with exp. With this type of Hoya filter

Hope that helps you?
