The UX II UV filter with water-repellent coating is a new development of the HMC UV(C) filter and has now been integrated into the new standard class of the UX II series together with the UX II CIR-PL filter. The UX II UV filter is aimed at entry-level users and offers high quality standards as well as basic and contemporary functions. The filter has been completely redesigned. Although UV rays are invisible to the naked eye, they can affect the image when shooting in places such as the sea or mountains, resulting in blurred contours or pale, whitish images. UV filters suppress the UV spectrum contained in daylight, which mainly has a negative effect on images. This filter can be used with both film and digital cameras and ensures more vivid images. In addition, it serves as daily protection for the lens if it remains permanently attached. Thanks to the water-repellent coating, the UX II UV filter is particularly suitable for repelling unwanted water droplets or dirt, thus enabling clear and clean images.
