Description

This filter fulfils the desire of many photographers for pure lens protection without a filter effect. Its only function is to keep dirt, sand, or splashes away from the front lens. The extremely clear special glass with high transmission is MRC-finished.

Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC)

MRC by B W is not only an extraordinarily effective multiple layer coating, it is also harder than glass, so that it protects filters from scratches (for instance when cleaning the filters), and it is also water and dirt repellent, thus facilitating filter maintenance.

A detailed description of MRC can be found here.

Mount

This filter uses our standard B W F-Pro filter mount, which has a front accessory thread and is made of brass. Compared to the earlier standard mount introduced in 2001, the F-Pro mount has become thinner. Now it can be used with wide angle lenses, including most 24mm focal lengths on a full frame body, without vignetting. Another advantage of the F-Pro mount is it’s modified retaining ring, which is no longer threaded in from the front, but holds the filter glass in place from the back. When removing a filter or lens hood that has been screwed on too tight to the filter, the retaining ring is not at risk of loosening.

NOTE: diopters are mounted in the older mount due to glass thickness.

Hoya engineers have developed a new ANTISTATIC coating that acts like a force field around the filter to repel dust. Perfect for environments where dust is common, these filters require less frequent cleaning and maintenance than traditional filters. Additionally, the hardened, antistatic top-layer is water repellent, stain and scratch resistant, and cleans easily when smudges or fingerprints are introduced to the surface.

The new FUSION Antistatic professional filters are made in Japan using hand selected silicates that are carefully smelted and blended to yield high performance optical glass. Hoya then uses extreme care and precision to apply the Improved 9-layer Super Multi-coating formula which greatly reduces or eliminates reflections on the surface of the glass and yields a ultra clear high transmission rate. This means the filter has virtually no effect on the color balance, contrast, or clarity of the final image.

The filters features a lightweight, one-piece, low-profile aluminum frame to house the glass. This one-piece design allows the filter to maintain perfect parallel alignment to the sensor plane for maximum sharpness, while the low-profile form eliminates vignetting when used on ultra-wide-angle lenses.

• • NEW Antistatic coating repels dust
• • Ultra Clear High Transmission
• • Scratch resistant – Hardened coating protects against everyday wear
• • Stain resistant – Protects against exposure to ink, markers etc.
• • Water repellent – Water beads up and wipes away easily
• • Fingerprints and smudges wipe away cleanly
• • Filters unwanted UV light before it reaches the sensor
• • Hoya’s Professional-grade optical glass
• • Hoya exclusive one-piece, low-profile filter frame with front filter threads

Formatt-Hitech’s new UV filters with Firecrest coating are the single most effective tool available for eliminating UV contamination and increasing contrast and acuity in your images, while also providing protection for the front element of your valuable lenses. This 370nm offers additional UV protection over the basic Firecrest UV making it a great everyday UV filter for discerning shooters. For maximum UV reduction (shooting at high altitudes for example) a UV 400nm is also available. Firecrest UV’s feature our exclusive Firecrest multicoating, that is both anti-reflective and hydrophobic, coated to broadcast quality glass in the thinnest rings on the market.

Formatt-Hitech Firecrest UV 370 filters are professional quality UV filters, built from Asahi broadcast glass, and featuring our exclusive Firecrest Anti-reflective coating. The Firecrest UV 370 filter is a step up from the standard UV filter offering a distinct UV cut at 370nm. This filter offers superior haze reduction plus essential lens protection.

Firecrest Multicoating

Firecrest is a multicoating application for glass filters that is by far the most technologically advanced filter manufacturing process on the market. The Firecrest process is a hard-coated electrolytic process that is anti-reflective, scratch-resistant, and hydrophobic. Most importantly, Firecrest technology gives our scientists unprecedented control over modifying specific frequencies of the light spectrum.

Thinnest Rings

The UltraSlim ring is the thinnest ring on the market. They’re Non-stackable. Meaning that once fitted, you cannot fit another filter or lens cap on top. They are designed to be fitted to the lens and then used without a lens cap. This is a popular technique used by photo journalists so that the camera is always at the ready.

First Batch

This is the first batch of Firecrest UV 370 built in our UltraSlim rings. These filters are offered in strictly limited quantity. The filters are available now at a special introductory price.
