Hama Profi Line UV Nano Ultraviolet (UV) camera filter 82 mm

Ultraviolet (UV) camera filter Hama Profi Line UV Nano 82 mm is a professional 82 mm protective filter made from high-quality lens glass. It reduces the bluish cast from ultraviolet light to minimise haze and preserve colour fidelity while protecting the front element of the lens from dust, scratches and light impacts. The filter uses an NMC16 multi-layer vapour-deposited coating on both sides plus a nano-coating for water- and oil-repellent properties.

Advantages

The NMC16 coating consists of eight layers on each side to provide excellent light transmission and strong anti-reflective performance, reducing ghosting and double images. A nano lotus-effect coating makes the glass easy to clean, repels water, oil and dirt, and reduces misting. The filter is scratch-resistant and features a black anodised metal mount with blackened inner edges and an edge sealant to prevent internal reflections and ingress of dirt. Its ultra-thin, wide mount minimises vignetting and can remain on the lens permanently without noticeably increasing the front element size.

Suitable for

• Outdoor landscape and nature photography where haze reduction is needed
• Everyday protection of camera lenses from dust and scratches
• Situations requiring improved colour fidelity and contrast
• Use with lenses where an 82 mm filter thread is specified

How to use

Screw the Hama Profi Line UV Nano 82 mm filter onto a compatible lens with an 82 mm thread until it is secure but not overtightened. Use the filter during outdoor shoots to reduce UV-induced haze and to protect the lens surface. Clean the filter with a blower, soft brush or microfibre cloth; for stubborn marks use a suitable lens cleaning solution. Store the filter in its case when not in use to avoid scratches.

Recommendations

For best results, keep the filter clean and avoid excessive tightening when attaching it. The filter is suitable for permanent use on the lens; however, verify compatibility with wide-angle lenses to ensure no vignetting occurs on extreme focal lengths.
