Item Includes:
- HOYA UV and IR Cut Filter
- Limited 1 Year Warranty
Overview:
The Hoya UV - IR Cut is a specialized filter that has the ability to cut both UV rays below 390nm and IR rays above 700mn, leaving just the light rays in the visible spectrum passing through the filter and into the camera.
The UV-IR CUT filter is intended for use with digital SLR cameras and cine cameras that do NOT have an IR filter installed in front of the sensor. Color balance effects can occur when this filter is used with cameras that have an IR filter installed in front of the sensor. Please consult your camera's owner’s manual before use.
The Hoya UV & IR light transmission curve shows the sharp-cut nature of the filter glass and coatings as well as the consistent light transmission in the visible spectrum. This curve demonstrates a more even visible light transmission than the closest competitor. This means that sharper images with more depth and finer, richer color gradations are possible with the Hoya UV & IR Cut filter.
The effect of the filter is achieved mainly though the multi-layer coatings on the surface of the filter. Hoya begins with crystal clear, colorless optical glass and then bonds coating to this filter that block both UV and IR light rays outside of the range mentioned.
There is light incidence angle dependence in the transmission factor because the overlayer is thick, so this filter doesn't suit to be used with a wide-angle lens.
It is suitable for heavenly body photography.
