B+W CLEAR FILTER MRC BASIC 52mm

Active photography demands a lot from cameras and lenses. Protecting the sensitive front lenses from flying sand, dust, fingerprints, or splashes with a B+W filter is a sensible choice. B+W filters not only cost a fraction of the lens price, but they are also easier to clean.

They can remain on the lens at all times, as they are completely color neutral, maintain the highest transparency, and are extremely low in reflections due to the MRC or MRC nano coating. The optical signal reaches the image sensor unaffected. With the extremely clear and highly transparent B+W protection filters, no extension factor needs to be considered.

In digital photography, protection filters play a particularly important role. Greater depth of field due to smaller sensors amplifies the impact of front lens contamination on image quality. Especially with zoom lenses that have lower light intensity, fingerprints can significantly reduce sharpness. However, frequent cleaning of the front lens can not only leave scratch marks but can also transport dirt particles or moisture from the edge of the mount into the interior of the lens system.
