Ultraviolet (UV) camera filter Hama Profi Line UV Nano 52 mm

Hama Profi Line UV Nano 52 mm is a professional ultraviolet (UV) camera filter made of high-quality lens glass. It reduces haze and the unwanted blue tint from ultraviolet radiation to deliver clearer images with improved color saturation, while providing physical protection against dust, scratches and light impacts. The filter features an ultra-thin wide mount that minimizes vignetting and can remain mounted on the lens permanently.

Advantages

The filter uses an NMC16 multi-layer vapour-deposited coating with eight layers per side for high light transmission and maximum anti-reflective performance. A nano-coating creates a lotus effect that repels water, oil and dirt, makes the surface easy to clean and prevents misting. Both front and back surfaces are coated to avoid loss of contrast, ghosting and double images. The mount is made from black anodised metal with blackened inner edges and an edge sealant to prevent reflections and soiling; the mount keeps a stable shape despite temperature fluctuations. The glass is scratch-resistant and helps protect the front lens element, potentially avoiding costly repairs.

Suitable for

• Outdoor landscape and travel photography to reduce haze and improve clarity
• Everyday lens protection against dust, fingerprints and scratches
• Situations where permanent mounting is preferred due to the ultra-thin wide mount
• Use with lenses where a 52 mm filter thread is specified

How to use

Attach the Hama Profi Line UV Nano filter to a lens with a 52 mm thread by screwing the filter mount clockwise until it is gently seated; avoid overtightening. Use the filter during outdoor shoots to reduce UV-induced haze and to protect the front element. Clean the filter with a soft blower, brush or microfiber cloth; for stubborn residues use a few drops of lens cleaning solution and wipe gently. Leave the ultra-thin wide mount on the lens if desired—its design minimises vignetting.

Usage recommendations

For best results combine regular optical cleaning with careful handling. If you shoot in salt, sand or heavy dust environments, rinse loose particles with a blower or brush first to avoid scratching before wiping. Verify lens compatibility by checking that the lens filter thread is 52 mm before purchase.
