UV Filters

UV haze. It's a problem that photographers face everyday. Haze reduces the overall contrast of an image and is almost always the first environmental phenomena to ruin your chances of turning that landscape photograph into fine-art. Haze is caused by ultraviolet contamination on your digital sensor or film, and causes the image to appear faded blue, gray or milky.

Firecrest UV Multicoated offers basic UV and lens protection.

Firecrest Multicoating

Firecrest is a multicoating application for glass filters that is by far the most technologically advanced filter manufacturing process on the market. The Firecrest process is a hard-coated electrolytic process that is anti-reflective, scratch-resistant, and hydrophobic. Most importantly, Firecrest technology gives our scientists unprecedented control over modifying specific frequencies of the light spectrum.

SuperSlim Rings

Formatt Hitech manufactures high quality aluminum rings to the most demanding tolerances, and these really slim rings minimize the chance of vignetting. UltraSlim rings are 3mm thin, but lack threads for stacking or a lens cap.
