The Haida PROII Multi-coating UV-IR-Cut Filter is a lens filter that, when attached to your lens, permits only the visible spectrum of light rays to enter the camera and get captured by the sensor. It blocks out both the higher frequency ultraviolet rays, and lower frequency infrared light rays. This is important to digital photographers because the CCD and CMOS sensors found in our cameras are extremely susceptible to catching UV and IR rays just outside the visible spectrum that have a very negative impact on image quality. Digital water proof and scratch resistant multi-coating offers both protection to the glass and helps to improve light transmission image quality. In the visible range, the lighting transmission curve is very high at 99.4%. Another benefit to using the UV-IR filter is that it can also reduce the effects of atmospheric haze to a greater degree than would be found with a standard UV filter. This means that sharper images with more depth and finer, richer color gradations are possible when utilizing the filter's effects in your photography. This combination filter is a very convenient option for those who seek a clearer and sharper image when captured outdoors, while getting the benefits of two filters in one.

1, More so than a traditional UV filter, this combination filter cuts through atmospheric haze to a greater degree than you would otherwise find

2, When using color CCD or CMOS camera sensors, which are extremely susceptible to UV and IR rays, this combination filter can produce greater accuracy of color in digital images than is found with traditional IR filters

3, Cut to transmit only those light rays that fall within the visible spectrum of light, this UV-IR filter blocks both ultraviolet rays found below 390 nm, as well as infrared rays above 750 nm

4, Slim, rigid aluminum filter ring provides support and is compatible with stackable standard filters for a greater combination of effects

5, Optical clear filter requires no exposure compensation.
