Camera protection filter Hama Ultimate 49 mm Black

The Hama Ultimate Camera Protection Filter 49 mm Black is an optical glass protector designed to shield your camera lens from scratches, dust and moisture while maintaining colour neutrality. With a multi-layer MC8 coating applied by vapour deposition on both sides and a slim, wide mount, the filter preserves image contrast and prevents ghosting without causing vignetting on compatible lenses.

Advantages

Optical glass construction with scratch-resistant surface and a four-layer MC8 anti-reflective coating on each side ensures high light transmission and minimal reflections. Both front and rear faces are coated to avoid loss of contrast, ghosting or double images. The black anodised metal mount with blackened inner edges reduces internal reflections, while an edge sealant protects against soiling. The ultra-thin, wide mount design minimises increase of the lens front and can remain mounted permanently.

Suitable for

• Protecting 49 mm camera lenses from physical damage
• Outdoor photography in dusty or humid environments
• Everyday use when you want to keep lens optics clean
• Situations where maintaining colour neutrality and contrast is important

How to use

Unscrew the filter from its case and carefully thread it onto the front filter thread of a compatible 49 mm lens until snug. Do not over-tighten. The filter can remain on the lens during shooting; it functions as a protective front element while preserving image quality thanks to its multi-layer coating. Clean the coated surfaces with a soft microfibre cloth and appropriate lens cleaning solution to avoid scratches.

Recommendations

Use the Hama Ultimate 49 mm Black filter as a permanent protective element on lenses with a 49 mm thread. Remove and store it in its case when transporting in tight bags to avoid edge damage. Regularly clean with lens-safe products and avoid abrasive materials.
