The 55mm UV Lens Filter from Urth protects your lens from scratches, dirt and water. It makes the images clearer and sharper by cutting out UV haze. UV light can create a blue color cast, but this UV filter cuts out 99.6% of ultraviolet light, helping sharpen your images, especially in hazy conditions. Keep the UV filter on the lens at all times without affecting exposure settings. If the camera is dropped, the UV filter may be the difference between replacing a filter and replacing a lens.

AGC Optical Glass    Double-Threaded    Ultra-Slim Rim    8-Layer Nano-Coating

The filter is double-threaded for stacking filters or using screw-mount lens caps.

It is composed of Japanese AGC optical glass, which is coated with an 8-layer nano-coating for better sharpness, added protection, and easier cleaning.

The consciously designed ultra-slim rim avoids vignetting and with a durable magnalium construction, the filter is guaranteed for life.
