Designed to block ultraviolet light, while allowing visible light to cleanly pass, this 82mm UV Filter from Simmod is a specialty filter that helps to achieve accurate and precise colors. This unique filter features 32 layers of multicoating, which further serves to minimize surface reflections and maintains light transmission for consistent color accuracy and image acuity.

Front Threads for Stacking    14 Layers of Nano Coating    99.2% Light Transmission    Secure Attachment    32 Layers of Multicoating    UV Protection    3.2mm Slim Design    Brass Filter Ring

The front threads on the filter allow users to stack filters by screwing them into other Simmod filters.

It takes two full turns to mount the filter onto the lens. This feature will securely hold the Simmod filter through the most demanding shoots.

Simmod can offer a 99.2% transmission rate by using highly polished Schott glass and advanced coatings.

Seven layers of nano coating on each side offer scratch resistance. With a combined 14 layers of nano coating, water beads will roll off your filter, while oil and fingerprints can be gently wiped off. Dust and debris won't adhere to the filter either and can be removed with a puff of air.

The filter is multicoated with 16 layers of coating on each side. That's a combined total of 32-layers of protective and enhancement coating. Multicoating reduces unwanted internal reflections and ghosting that can compromise your images.

The filter blocks UV light and reduces the bluish cast of daylight. This can affect color accuracy, especially at higher altitudes.

The properties of a brass filter ring minimize the chance of jamming or binding when screwing the filter onto the lens or stacking filters.

This filter is slim enough to use on wide-angle lenses without experiencing vignetting due to its 3.2mm size.

Q: 1. This works for a7sii?

A: If this camera has a crop sensor mode, the lens would work. However, because it is designed for APS-C sensor size, the image captured would not fill the sensor size on the a7sii. Would be better off with a lens designed for the Sony FE mount.

Q: 3. which lens would you recommend fungi 14mm or XF 10-24mm?

A: Wow, I could bore you with what I shoot and why; indicating that I am either a photographer or an idiot with money. I Shoot the prime. I shoot only primes with only one exception and this is not it. PhaseOne/IQ260, Arca Swiss, Fuji...it doesn't matter. if you want the best from a lens...you by prime. HOWEVER: if your purpose says you MUST have this range for some unknown reason and you cannot live without that range AND your budget says NO to primes...then, of course, you shoot the 10-24.

Q: 7. Why do you say that the lense has a 52.5mm equivalent? This is a 35mm lense that is meant for an APS-C camera it is not a fullframe lense. If it was a full frame lense I would understand calling it a 52.5mm equivalent 1.5 X 35 = 52.5. But it's not a full frame lense so wouldn't it still function as a 35 mm lense on an APS-C sensor camera???

A: 52.5mm equivalent is common terminology to explain the effective field of view of a lens. It is not wrong!

Q: 8. Does barrel distortion increase when shooting with nikon Z8 in DX mode?

A: The barrel distortion does not increase when shooting in DX mode. Due to the crop, it actually should be less noticable. If you're shooting RAW, the distortion is easily corrected by softwares like Adobe Lightroom, or Capture One. Alternatively if you are shooting JPEG, you can go into the Z8's Photo Shooting Menu. You will find "Auto distortion control", if you enable this function you will eliminate the distortion in both DX & FX modes.
