Hoya 112mm EVO Antistatic UV Filter XEVA-112UV

Where superior lens protection and enhanced image quality are paramount, the 112mm EVO Antistatic UV Filter stands out. This high-performance filter, meticulously crafted in Japan, is designed with top-notch coatings that actively guard against scratches, dust, and dirt that could potentially harm your lenses. The UV filter's unique properties effectively filter out unwanted UV rays, reducing haze and significantly enhancing clarity, particularly at high altitudes. During the multi-coating process, a special Antistatic layer is applied, preventing static electric build-up on the filter's surface. This feature is particularly beneficial during cleaning and handling, making it an excellent choice for environments where dust is prevalent. The EVO Antistatic UV filters require less frequent cleaning and maintenance compared to traditional filters, thanks to their hardened, antistatic top-layer. This layer is not only water repellent but also resistant to stains and scratches, and it cleans easily when smudges or fingerprints are introduced to the surface. Constructed using hand-selected silicates, carefully smelted and blended, these filters yield high-performance optical glass. Hoya applies an 18-layer Super Multi-Coating (SMC) formula, which significantly reduces or eliminates reflections on the glass surface and offers a 99.8% light transmission rate. This ensures the filter has virtually no effect on the color, contrast, or clarity of the final image. The filter features a lightweight, one-piece, low-profile aluminum frame to house the glass, ensuring perfect parallel alignment to the sensor plane for maximum sharpness. The low-profile design eliminates vignetting when used on ultra-wide angle lenses. Specifically developed for the Nikkor Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S lens, the 112mm UV filter has been tested and confirmed to work without vignetting, making it an indispensable accessory for professional photography.
