This B+W 37mm UV filter blocks the invisible UV component of light from the sky, which can cause blur and a blue cast in photographs. Ideal for photography in high altitudes, by the sea, and in regions with very clean air, it helps pictures gain brilliance and avoids disturbing blue casts. The colorless glass ensures color rendition is not altered and no increase in exposure is required. This UV filter also serves as excellent protection for the front element of your lens against dust, flying sand, and seawater spray, making it suitable to keep on the lens at all times for both analog and digital photography.
