Star filters come in 3 different varieties, STAR 4X, STAR 6X and STAR 8X, each with 4, 6 or 8 light rays emanating from the light source.HOYA star filters have lines etched into the surface of the filter's high quality optical glass to create the star effect. Each of the filters, STAR 4X, STAR 6X and STAR 8X, have different line patterns etched into the glass to create the number of light rays for the filter.The star filter creates a beautiful and romantic effect by emitting multiple light rays emanating from a point light source or bright object in the image. The appearance of the beam can vary depending on the aperture setting, size, strength of the light source and distance from the camera. Find the best angle of the star effect according to your personal preference by rotating the filter frame. When shooting a video, rotate the frame to achieve dynamic and rhythmic movements of the rays. &nbsp.
