Key Specifications & Features
 Optics: Manufactured using high-quality, heat-resistant tempered glass for optical precision.
 Coating: Features Hoya's HMC (Hoya Multi-Coated) process, typically consisting of 6 layers (3 per side), which suppresses reflections, ghosting, and flare.
 Light Transmission: Achieves an average light transmission rate of over 97%, ensuring it does not significantly impact exposure or image quality.
 Physical Protection: Designed to be left on the lens at all times to shield the front element from dust, moisture, scratches, and minor impacts.
 Frame: Built with a low-profile, black-finished aluminum frame (approx. 3mm–5mm thick) to prevent vignetting when used on wide-angle lenses.

 Compatibility: Fits any camera lens with an 82mm filter thread size and includes front threads for attaching a lens cap or additional filters.
 Universal Use: Suitable for both color and black-and-white film, as well as digital photography.
