Ultraviolet (UV) camera filter Hama Profi Line UV Nano 72 mm

The Hama Profi Line UV Nano 72 mm is an ultraviolet (UV) camera filter made from high-quality lens glass. It reduces haze and the unwanted blue cast from UV radiation to deliver clearer images with improved color saturation and contrast, while providing physical protection for the lens front against scratches, dust and light impact. The filter features a nano-coated, vapor-deposited multi-layer NMC16 coating (eight layers per side) to maximise light transmission and minimise reflections.

Advantages

The NMC16 multi-layer coating on both sides ensures excellent light permeability and strong anti-reflective performance, preventing ghosting and double images. A nano-coating creates a lotus effect that repels water, oil and dirt and makes the glass easy to clean and resistant to misting. The filter is scratch-resistant and has a black anodised metal mount with blackened inner edges and edge sealant to reduce reflections and contamination. Its ultra-thin, wide mount design prevents vignetting and can remain on the lens permanently without significantly increasing the lens front extension.

Suitable for

• Outdoor photography to reduce haze and UV-induced blue cast
• Everyday lens protection against scratches, dust and light impacts
• Landscape and travel photography where colour fidelity and contrast matter
• Situations requiring a low-profile filter that avoids vignetting

How to use

Screw the filter onto a compatible 72 mm lens thread until the mount seats evenly; avoid overtightening. Use the filter during outdoor shooting to reduce haze and UV distortion; it can remain mounted permanently for continuous protection. Clean the filter with a soft blower, brush or microfiber cloth and, if necessary, a small amount of lens-cleaning fluid suitable for coated optics to preserve the nano-coating.

Usage recommendations

For best results, keep the filter clean and store it in its protective case when not in use. While the filter reduces UV haze and protects the front element, it does not replace regular professional maintenance of lenses.
