filters

hello everyone

I have been given a few hoya filters here is a list of a few of them, I have another 12
can you please tell me what I can use them for and can they be used on my 50mm 1.8 lense. I have also got a 52mm adaptor ring with 3 different filters, can these be used on
the same lense. I have never used filters before and i would appreciate any help.

regards ron moore

Best bet would be to go on Hoya's website and look up each filter that will tell you what they do.

From the names I would hazard a guess that they are all special effect filters.

Fun to use once in a while but not of huge practical advantage.
