Product Information
Todays high quality lenses have precision front lens elements that can be easily scratched or damaged during normal use and cleaning. A UV filter simply screws into the filter threads on the front of your lens and remains there permanently for protection and improved color rendition. Why should I buy a Vivitar UV filter when others might be less expensive? When you have taken the time effort and expense to obtain the higher quality images that a DSLR can provide don’t compromise your results with Protector No Name High Definition Hi Resolution filters that are available at prices that seem too good to be true. The low quality components construction and quality control of a bargain priced filter can degrade sharpness create distortion and lower your overall image quality. Key Features: For digital video and photo Provide more accurate color May be kept on your lens at all times More than just a Protector it absorbs UV light to reduce excessive blue and haze Front threads allow attachment of other filters and accessories Protects lens from dust moisture fingerprints scratches and impact For over 70 years Vivitar has been recognized as a manufacturer of quality optics and photo accessories What is the difference between a UV filter and a Protector? A UV filter not only offers protection but is capable of removing enough Ultra Violet light to reduce excessive blue and haze to clearly improve your images. Protectors offer protection but no UV filtration capability and its optical quality is no better than plain window glass. A UV filter will filter out unwanted UV light and prevent a UV fogging/haze effect which can result in inaccurate color and lower the apparent sharpness. When shooting outside without a UV filter white areas often will show a bluish tint and skin tones can appear less natural and cool looking. Furthermore when you shoot at distances there is more UV light between you and the subject than when close. This can introduce a UV haze effect and result in less than optimum image sharpness. When should I use a UV filter? The most recommended of filters a UV can be kept on a lens at all times inside or outside daylight or flash black-and-white or color telephoto wide angle or zoom lens film or digital still or video photography… no matter what your camera or lens type. A lens protected by a UV filter can often survive intact when the filter absorbs the trauma of the impact. It also makes it easier and less expensive to have to clean or replace a badly scratched or damaged filter than your camera’s lens.Product Identifiers

Good for lens protection
Optics are OK but be careful with what you use to clean the lens. I got something on it I could not brush off, applied liquid lens cleaner and the coating dissolved and turned to streaks, I was not able to clear the defect so I tossed the filter, good thing it was cheap.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Lens Filter
Its a very nice and safe way to protect your lens. I use them all the time to protect and it helps with the sunlight and the color balance of your digital exposures. I will buy more of them.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
