Camera protection filter Hoya Fusion Antistatic Next Protector 72 mm

The Hoya Fusion Antistatic Next Protector 72 mm is a camera protection filter designed to shield your lens from dust, scratches and moisture while preserving image clarity. Manufactured in Japan from professional-grade optical glass with an 18-layer Super Multi-Coating on both sides, the filter offers high transmission and minimal impact on color balance, contrast and sharpness. Its improved antistatic top layer repels dust and reduces the need for frequent cleaning, while a water-repellent, stain-resistant finish makes smudges and fingerprints easy to remove. The filter is housed in a one-piece, low-profile aluminum frame that maintains parallel alignment to the sensor plane and helps prevent vignetting on ultra-wide lenses.

Advantages

The antistatic coating forms a barrier that repels dust, lowering maintenance and cleaning frequency compared with conventional filters. The hardened top layer resists stains and causes water to bead up for easy wiping, and fingerprints or smudges clean off without special treatment. The 18-layer Super Multi-Coating reduces surface reflections and ensures ultra-clear, high transmission through professional-grade optical glass, so the protector has virtually no effect on the final image. A lightweight, one-piece low-profile aluminum frame preserves sharpness by keeping the glass parallel to the sensor and minimizes vignetting on wide-angle lenses.

Suitable for

• Landscape and travel photography where dust and moisture are common
• Outdoor shooting in dusty or humid environments
• Everyday lens protection during transport and storage
• Use with ultra-wide-angle lenses thanks to the low-profile frame

How to use

Screw the 72 mm Hoya Fusion Antistatic Next Protector onto the matching lens filter thread until it is secure but not over-tightened. Use the front filter threads to attach accessories such as lens caps or additional filters if needed. To clean, gently wipe away dust with a blower or soft brush first, then remove smudges or fingerprints with a microfiber cloth; for stubborn marks, use a small amount of lens cleaning solution on the cloth. Avoid abrasive materials and excessive force when cleaning the coated surface.

Usage recommendations

For best long-term performance, store the filter in a protective case when not in use, clean only as needed to preserve the antistatic layer, and avoid contact with solvents not intended for optical coatings.
