Our take on the Hoya UV HMC Filter

This Hoya filter attaches to the front of your lens. You can leave this type of filter on at all times to protect an expensive lens from minor bumps and scratches. It also absorbs UV light, which can make outdoor photos appear hazy. A special coating reduces flare and ghosting.

Highlights:

  • glass lens filter
  • fits most lenses with 77mm thread diameter
  • protects lens from bumps, scratches, and dust
  • multi-layer coatings reduce ghost images and flare
  • absorbs UV light in outdoor photos
  • warranty: 1 year
  • Our 60-day money-back guarantee

Features

Overview: The HOYA UV filter's multi-coated surfaces increase light transmission and absorb almost all range of UV rays to give clearer and sharper pictures with less haze. The use of ultra-clear glass ensures that color balance is maintained. Constant use for lens protection is recommended. This filter fits most lenses with a 77mm thread diameter.

One of the best dual purpose filters for a reasonable price. This filter keeps your
precious lens clean while enhances the image. I have used Hoya brand for many years
and will continue to do so.

I wish I had read the reviews, I ordered the uv(0) filter made in Japan AS SHOWN, and was sent the uv(c) filter made in the Philippines. They responded to another reviewer that the photo had been changed to reflect the ACTUAL PRODUCT, but it clearly has not.

[Editor's Note: Due to an anomoly, the standard process did not remove the picture. It has been removed now. ]

Different filter

Be careful. The picture clearly shows the Hoya HMC UV(0) filter which is a great filter but at this time they only send the Hoya HMC UV(C) filter and that is all they have. The UV(C) filter is a cheaper filter. Don't fall for this.

[Editor's Note: We have updated our photo presentation to show the UV(C) filter.]

The lens filter. No camera bag should be without at least one. You've finally pulled the trigger and ordered that sweet DSLR kit you've had your eye on...
