Circulair polarisatie camerafilter Hama Profi Line 49 mm Multi Resistant Coating

Hama Profi Line Circular polarising filter 49 mm with Multi Resistant Coating (MRC) is a precision rotary filter designed to reduce reflections and glare, enhance colour saturation and improve image contrast. Made from high-quality lens glass with multi-layer vapour-deposited coatings and a nano-coating, it also provides basic front-of-lens protection while remaining ultra-flat and lightweight to minimise additional lens bulk and prevent vignetting.

Advantages

The filter removes non-metallic reflections from water, glass and plastic, deepens sky tones and increases overall picture contrast without post-processing. Its precision rotary mount allows variable adjustment for optimal polarisation effect, while eight-layer NMC16 coatings on each side and a nano lotus coating ensure high light transmission, anti-reflection performance, water- and oil-repellent surfaces and easier cleaning. The anodised metal mount with blackened inner edges and edge sealant reduces internal reflections and contamination, and the glass is scratch-resistant.

Suitable for

• Landscape photography to deepen skies and enhance colour saturation
• Photography of water surfaces, windows, aquariums to reduce reflections
• Outdoor and travel photography where improved contrast and lens protection are required
• Situations requiring adjustable polarisation using the rotary mount

• Additional features: scratch-resistant glass, front and back coated, prevents ghosting and double images, minimal increase of lens front section, simultaneous lens protection

How to use

Screw the 49 mm filter onto the front thread of a compatible lens and rotate the outer ring to adjust the polarisation effect until the desired reduction of reflections and enhancement of colour and contrast is achieved. For strongest polarising effect position the camera at an angle of approximately 30–40° to the reflecting surface. Use the precision rotary mount to fine-tune the effect while viewing through the viewfinder or on the camera LCD.

Recommendations

For best results use this circular polariser mainly for landscape and water scenes and angle the camera about 30–40° relative to the reflective surface; avoid excessive rotation when shooting wide-angle lenses to prevent uneven polarisation and check for vignetting on very wide lenses despite the ultra-thin mount. Store the filter in its box when not in use to protect coatings and threads.
