B+W 43 010 UV-Haze 1X Filter in Case

The B+W 43mm 010 UV-Haze 1X is a premium, multi-purpose filter designed to improve image quality while providing essential daily protection for your camera lens. Optically, its primary function is to block invisible ultraviolet light, which frequently causes a bluish cast and obscures distant details in outdoor, high-altitude, or coastal photography. By cutting through this atmospheric haze, the filter ensures crisper, more vibrant landscape shots with enhanced contrast. Because it features a 1X filter factor, it is completely color-neutral and does not reduce the amount of light reaching the sensor, meaning you never have to adjust your exposure settings when using it.

Beyond its optical benefits, this UV-Haze filter is widely favored by photographers as a permanent, transparent protective shield for their expensive lenses. Leaving it attached guards the delicate front lens element against flying dust, blowing sand, moisture, and accidental scratches. The optic is crafted from high-quality Schott glass for uncompromised sharpness, and it is securely mounted in B+W's signature heavy-duty brass ring. This durable brass construction prevents the filter from binding or cross-threading, ensuring it can be easily attached or removed regardless of temperature fluctuations in the field.
