Active photography places high demands on both cameras and lenses. Therefore, it makes sense to use a B+W filter to protect the sensitive front lens element from sand, dust, fingerprints, and water splashes. B+W filters cost only a fraction of the price of a new lens, and they are also easier to clean. B+W Protective Filters can be permanently mounted in front of the lens because they are absolutely color-neutral, highly transparent, and, thanks to the B+W MRC coating or B+W MRC nano-coating, they have extremely low reflections.
Photography in various environments exposes both the camera and lens to significant stress and wear. One simple way to protect the lens's sensitive front element is to mount a B+W UV filter to guard against wear caused by blowing sand, dust, fingerprints, and water splashes.
B+W Filters cost only a fraction of the price of a new lens and are also easy to clean.
A B+W Protective Filter can be permanently mounted on the lens because they are absolutely color neutral, highly transparent, and have B+W MRC coating or B+W MRC nano-coating, which prevents disturbing reflections that can affect optical properties and create unwanted optical phenomena. B+W filters are made from crystal-clear optical glass that matches the lens elements in the most exclusive lenses.
B+W Protective Filter 007 does not block any wavelengths of light but is used solely as a protective filter for the lens's front element. It can be combined with most other filters, allowing it to remain permanently on the lens.
UV radiation can cause color shifts in images and create a hazy impression, which can be perceived as blurriness. B+W UV filters block the UV light present in daylight, resulting in clearer images with natural colors. Despite blocking UV light, the filter does not extend exposure time but allows all visible light to pass through.
It is the most exclusive protective filter on the market with MRC Nano treatment.

It is important to choose the right UV filter for the specific application. For example, a filter intended for camera lenses cannot be used to protect a microscope or other types of optical equipment. It is also very important to choose a high-quality filter to avoid degraded image quality or other issues.
UV filters are often used in photography, especially in outdoor photography with strong sunlight. UV filters can help reduce blueness and increase sharpness in images while protecting the lens from scratches and other damage. UV filters can also be used to protect optical surfaces in other applications, such as microscopes and telescopes.
Optical UV filters are a type of filter used to block UV radiation from reaching an optical surface, such as a lens or camera lens. UV radiation is invisible to the human eye but can cause damage to images and objects, especially in outdoor environments where UV radiation is stronger.
UV filters work by absorbing or reflecting UV radiation and allowing visible light to pass through. This protects images and objects from UV radiation damage while not affecting image quality.
There are different types of UV filters, including absorbing and reflecting filters. Absorbing filters absorb UV radiation and convert it into heat energy, while reflecting filters reflect UV radiation away from the optical surface. The choice of filter depends on the specific purpose and the type of UV radiation that needs to be blocked.
In summary, optical UV filters are an important component in many applications that use optical surfaces, including photography, microscopy, and telescopic observations. By blocking UV radiation, UV filters protect images and optical surfaces from damage without affecting image quality. The choice of filter depends on the specific purpose and the type of UV radiation that needs to be blocked.
