B+W MRC Basic 62 mm UV-Haze Filter: Ultimate Protection and Uncompromised Clarity

Elevate your photography and provide essential protection for your lens with the B+W MRC Basic 62 mm UV-Haze Filter. A masterpiece of German engineering from the renowned Schneider Kreuznach, this filter is an indispensable tool for photographers who demand both pristine image quality and robust lens security. Designed to be the first line of defense for your valuable optics, it excels in a dual role: enhancing your photos while physically safeguarding your investment. Whether you are a professional shooting in challenging environments or an enthusiast who values quality, this filter is a fundamental component of any camera kit.

The classic amongst the B+W protection filters blocks the annoying UV component of daylight. Invisible UV light is more intense in pure sea air and in high mountain regions and can cause blurring and a blueish cast. The colour-neutral B+W 010 UV Haze filter is equally suitable for both analog and digital cameras. It ensures more brilliant images and can remain on the lens permanently as front lens protection.

Legendary Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC)

At the heart of this filter´s superior performance is the legendary B+W Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC). This advanced, multi-layer coating is applied to both sides of the high-quality Schott glass to deliver exceptional results. It drastically reduces reflections and minimizes ghosting and flare, ensuring that over 99% of light passes through to your camer´s sensor. The result is imagery with superior clarity, brilliant colours, and enhanced contrast. Furthermore, the MRC´s hardened outer layer is incredibly durable. It´s hydrophobic, causing water to simply bead up and roll off the surface. It is also oleophobic and dust-repellent, resisting smudges, fingerprints, and dirt, which makes cleaning the filter effortless and less frequent. This exceptional scratch resistance ensures the filter´s optical perfection is maintained through years of use.

Precision Engineering and Durability

The "Basic" in the name refers to its precision-machined brass filter mount, which is finished with a matte black coating to prevent stray reflections. Unlike aluminum mounts, B+W´s brass rings are more resistant to temperature-induced expansion and contraction, ensuring a consistently smooth and secure fit on your lens. This durability prevents binding and cross-threading, making filter changes quick and worry-free, even in the field. This commitment to quality construction means the filter can live on your lens, serving as a permanent, optically pure bodyguard against accidental impacts, dust, moisture, and scratches that could permanently damage your front lens element. It´s an affordable insurance policy for your far more expensive lens.
