This 40.5mm Haida Greystone UV Filter 40.5mm Multicoatedfeatures an ultrathin aircraft-grade aluminum filter ring that is only 0.122" thick, which helps prevent vignetting on wider lenses or when stacking multiple filters. Use this filter to reduce haze in your image, which can be caused by UV contamination. The filter blocks UV without requiring exposure compensation and blocking UV can result in cleaner colors in your image. This makes the UV filter a good choice to leave on your lens all the time, as it can help protect your front element from dirt, dust, spray, and splash.
