Filtro de cámara ultravioleta (UV) B+W 010 BASIC 58 mm Multi Resistant Coating

The B+W 010 BASIC 58 mm Ultraviolet (UV) camera filter is a screw-on optical accessory that reduces ultraviolet light entering the lens and provides basic protection for the front element. Designed for lenses with a 58 mm filter thread, the glass with Multi Resistant Coating (MRC) helps reduce stray reflections and ghosting while maintaining neutral colour reproduction. This compact, low-profile filter is suitable for outdoor shooting where UV haze can reduce perceived sharpness and contrast.

Advantages

The filter combines UV-blocking glass with a Multi Resistant Coating to reduce surface reflections, ease cleaning and resist smudges. Its slim metal frame maintains a stable attachment to the lens without significant vignetting on wide-angle optics. The neutral density effect is negligible, so white balance and exposure remain consistent when the filter is mounted.

Suitable for

• Outdoor landscape and nature photography to reduce UV haze
• Travel and street photography for front-element protection
• Architectural and cityscapes where contrast preservation is important
• Everyday shooting when lens protection from dust and moisture is desired

Key specifications

• Filter type: Ultraviolet (UV)
• Diameter: 58 mm thread
• Coating: Multi Resistant Coating (MRC) to reduce reflections and improve cleanability
• Mount: slim metal screw-in frame for secure attachment
• Optical effect: blocks UV light with minimal impact on exposure and colour balance

How to use

Screw the filter into the front threads of a compatible 58 mm lens until it seats snugly; avoid excessive force to prevent thread damage. Use the filter during daylight shooting, especially in bright, hazy or high-altitude conditions where ultraviolet light affects clarity. Remove and store the filter in a protective pouch when not in use to avoid scratches and contamination. Clean the coated surfaces with a microfiber cloth and appropriate lens cleaning solution to preserve the Multi Resistant Coating.

Recommendations

For best results, pair the UV filter with lenses that match the 58 mm thread and check for vignetting on ultra-wide optics. Regularly inspect and clean the filter surface; do not use abrasive materials. When stacking multiple filters, verify that the combined thickness does not cause mechanical vignetting or affect autofocus performance.
