Ultraviolet (UV) camera filter Walimex Slim MC UV 52mm 52 mm Black

The Walimex Slim MC UV 52mm is a slim ultraviolet (UV) camera filter designed to protect the lens and reduce atmospheric haze. It blocks UV light and reduces chromatic aberrations that can cause loss of clarity, making it useful for landscape and high-altitude photography. The filter’s slim profile helps minimize vignetting on wide-angle lenses while providing basic lens protection. The filter is supplied in a protective case for storage.

Advantages

The filter’s multi-coated optical glass offers good transmission and reduced reflections. A precisely manufactured metal frame holds the glass securely and includes an inner thread for stacking additional filters. At approximately 6 mm height the slim construction is lightweight and compact, which reduces the risk of vignetting on wide-angle lenses and keeps added bulk to a minimum.

Suitable for

• Landscape photography
• Outdoor and high-altitude shooting where UV haze is noticeable
• Protecting the front element of the lens from dust and minor contact
• Wide-angle lenses where a slim filter profile is required

Store the filter in its protective case when not in use to keep the glass clean and protected.

Usage recommendations

For best results on wide-angle lenses, use the slim 52 mm filter to reduce vignetting. Clean the coated glass with a soft microfiber cloth and appropriate lens cleaner to maintain optical performance.
