About This Item
Find the perfect solution for your lens protection and image clarity with the 86mm EVO Antistatic Protector Filter. This high-quality filter is crafted using distortion-free optical glass, ensuring sharp and clear images every time. The special multi-coating process utilized by Hoya incorporates a unique Antistatic layer, which effectively prevents static electric build-up on the filter's surface. This feature is particularly beneficial in dusty environments, as it reduces the need for frequent cleaning and maintenance compared to traditional filters.The EVO Antistatic Protector Filter boasts a hardened, antistatic top-layer that is not only water repellent but also resistant to stains and scratches. This easy-to-clean surface remains clear and smudge-free, even when fingerprints are introduced. Manufactured in Japan, the EVO Antistatic Protector Filters are produced using hand-selected silicates. These are meticulously smelted and blended to create high-performance optical glass. Hoya enhances this with a 16-layer Super Multi-Coating (SMC) anti-reflection formula, which significantly reduces or eliminates reflections on the glass surface and provides a 99.8% light transmission rate. This ensures the filter has minimal impact on the color, contrast, or clarity of your final image, precisely what you expect from a Protector filter.The filter's design features a lightweight, one-piece, low-profile aluminum frame that houses the glass. This design ensures parallel alignment to the sensor plane for maximum sharpness. The low-profile form also prevents vignetting when used with ultra-wide angle lenses. For larger sizes, the filter uses slightly thicker glass to prevent flex and improve filter integrity. This necessitates the use of lightweight aluminum 5mm thick filter frames, which have been tested on the widest lenses available that accept front filters, with zero vignetting detected.The filter comes in a durable plastic clamshell protective case for easy storage and transportation. For added convenience, the filter is stored in a ballistic nylon filter case with a soft, scratch-free lining and includes a magnetic clasp for easy access. With the 86mm EVO Antistatic Protector Filter, you can ensure your lenses are protected while maintaining the highest image quality.
