- Absorbs UV rays to improve image clarity and sharpness, reducing atmospheric haze and clouding for crisper photos. - Prevents unwanted reflections while increasing light transmission for better overall image quality. - Repels water droplets, making the filter surface easier to clean and maintain. - Designed to avoid vignetting on wide-angle lenses, even when a lens cap is attached. - When left on the lens, functions as an everyday lens protector in addition to its filtering capability. - Helps maintain slower shutter speeds in bright sunlight, delivers neutral color balance, and reduces unwanted lens flare. - Ideal for long exposure work and scenes such as clouds, oceans, rivers, waterfalls, landscapes, light paths, and creative portraits. - Slim, minimal design for easy travel; laser-etched edge markings eliminate guessing the light intake during run-and-gun shoots. - Quick and easy to attach, lightweight and compact; requires only your camera and lens to use.
