Quantaray Professional Filter Series, 67mm

Quantaray Professional Filter Series Fits Size: 67mm Lens Front UV Protection Key Features: Minimizes Bluish Cast Reduces Internal Reflections on Sensors Protects Front Element Digital Multi-Coated Black Aluminum Filter Ring The Quantarary Ultraviolet (UV) Digital Filter is a wise initial investment. It helps protect your valuable investment from dust, moisture and scratches, which can lead to costly repairs. Digital camera CCD or CMOS sensors are highly susceptible to reflections. This stray light can ruin your photographs. Reduced internal reflections mean a clearer image with greater contrast. A UV filter not only minimizes the bluish cast sometimes found under daylight conditions, but is also the best available protection against accidental damage to the front element of your lens. A lens that accidentally gets dropped on its front element while hiking can potentially be saved by purchasing this item. Some people refer to it as "cheap insurance". As a lens protector, it should be left on at all times. Aside from that more-than-significant benefit, UV filters render your photos clearer, sharper and more contrasty. For those who enjoy outdoor photography, especially distant vistas, a UV filter can produce a more distinct and acceptable image by removing much of the blue tint normally associated with atmospheric haze.
