Filter set Kenko 72mm – Kenko multi-coated photographic lens filters set

Kenko filter set for 72mm thread lenses provides a compact selection of multi-coated photographic screw-in filters designed for lenses with a 72 mm filter thread. The set contains optical glass filters that protect the front element of the lens and alter incoming light to support different photographic effects. Multi-coating helps to reduce reflections and maintain color fidelity, making these filters applicable for landscape, travel and portrait photography where control of glare, contrast and exposure is required.

Advantages

The filters use multi-coated optical glass to reduce internal reflections and minimize flare while preserving accurate color reproduction. The screw-in 72mm metal frames ensure secure attachment and low profile on compatible lenses. By combining protection and light-modifying properties in one kit, the set offers practical versatility without adding complex handling steps. The filters are lightweight and suitable for fieldwork, providing consistent optical performance across a range of lighting conditions.

Suitable for

• Landscape photography to manage reflections and improve sky contrast
• Travel photography for lens protection and quick exposure control
• Portrait photography to reduce stray highlights and preserve skin tones
• General outdoor shooting where glare reduction and front-element protection are desired

How to use

Attach the appropriate filter by screwing the filter frame onto the 72 mm thread at the front of the lens until it is secure but not overtightened. Use a protective filter for everyday lens protection and remove or replace with a light-modifying filter when you need to control reflections, reduce glare, or adjust contrast. When stacking filters, check for vignetting on wide-angle lenses and ensure each filter is tightened evenly. Clean filters with a soft microfiber cloth and suitable lens cleaner to maintain image quality.

Usage recommendations

Store filters in a protective pouch when not in use to avoid scratches and dust. For landscape shots under bright sky, combine glare-reducing filters with polarizing techniques for improved saturation; for portrait work, prioritize neutral density or protective filters to preserve tones. Inspect filter threads for compatibility before purchase to ensure a proper fit on lenses with a 72 mm filter thread.
