Ultraviolet (UV) camera filter B+W 010 BASIC 6.2 cm Multi Resistant Coating

The B+W 010 BASIC Ultraviolet (UV) camera filter, diameter 6.2 cm, reduces UV light and helps produce clearer outdoor images by minimizing haze and atmospheric veiling. As a protective filter it shields the front element of your lens from dust, sand, fingerprints and splashes while remaining color-neutral and highly transparent. The glass features a Multi Resistant Coating (MRC) that reduces reflections and improves scratch and dirt resistance without affecting exposure settings.

Advantages

The B+W 010 BASIC filter offers durable protection at a fraction of the cost of replacing a lens front element. Its MRC coating provides low reflection and easier cleaning, while the optical characteristics preserve image sharpness and color fidelity. Because the filter is color-neutral and highly transparent, no exposure compensation is required when shooting.

Suitable for

• Outdoor landscape and travel photography
• Protecting lenses from dust, sand and splashes
• Situations with strong UV light or atmospheric haze
• Photographers who prefer permanent lens protection

How to use

Clean the glass using a blower, lens brush or microfiber cloth and, if needed, a small amount of lens-cleaning solution applied to the cloth rather than directly to the filter.

Usage recommendations

Use the B+W 010 BASIC as a protective and image-quality-preserving accessory for outdoor photography; regularly remove loose particles with a blower before wiping to reduce the risk of scratching and prolong the MRC coating’s effectiveness.
