Hama 70055 ultraviolet (UV) camerafilter 55 mm

The Hama 70055 Ultraviolet (UV) camera filter for 55 mm lenses is a colour-neutral glass filter with a single coating. It protects the lens surface against scratches, dust and finger marks while reducing atmospheric haze and improving image clarity. The filter blocks UV rays up to 390 nm and helps deliver clear, sharp photos in both colour and black-and-white photography.

Advantages

This UV filter provides physical protection for the front element of the lens and reduces glare thanks to its single coating. It filters ultraviolet light and haze to improve contrast and sharpness, and its neutral colour reproduction preserves natural tones in your images.

Suitable for

• Outdoor landscape photography
• Travel and street photography where lens protection is needed
• Black-and-white photography to reduce unwanted bluish cast
• Everyday use to protect the front element from dust and scratches
