Awesome filter.

I use this on my Olympus Pen E-PL9. I have been using it for a few years now, the dust and weather resistance is very good. Water just beads up and rolls off.

High quality, well-made filter!

This is a high quality, well-made filter! The retaining ring for the filter glass is on the side that screws into the lens, which is nice because it adds an extra layer of security just in case the filter retaining ring loosens.

I have always enjoyed the results from using B and W filters.

If you're a photography enthusiast or professional looking to enhance your image quality and protect your valuable lenses, the 30.5mm XS-Pro UV MRC Nano #010M Filter is an indispensable accessory. This high-quality UV filter effectively blocks the invisible UV component of light from the sky, which is known to cause blur and a blue cast in many color films. By filtering out UV light, your photos will exhibit increased brilliance and clarity, free from the distracting blue casts that can detract from the beauty of your shots.

Crafted with precision, the filter is ideal for use in a variety of challenging environments, including high altitudes in the mountains, by the sea, or in regions with exceptionally clean air. Its colorless glass ensures that color rendition remains accurate, without altering the natural hues of your scene. There's no need for additional exposure adjustments, making this UV filter a convenient and reliable choice for photographers who demand the best in image protection and quality.

The B+W XS-Pro Digital Filter Series is renowned for its slim design and robust construction. The newly developed mounting ring is particularly well-suited for SLRs equipped with wide-angle and zoom lenses, ensuring that vignetting is minimized, even in the widest shots. The XS-Pro filters boast front threads, allowing for the attachment of additional accessories such as other filters, screw-on shades, and lens covers, enhancing their versatility.

Durability and ease of maintenance are at the forefront of the filter's design. The XS-Pro filter rings are constructed from brass and finished in matte black to eliminate reflections. Schneider's proprietary Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC) is a standard feature on B+W XS-Pro Digital Filters, providing exceptional anti-reflection properties, brilliant colors, and high contrast. This robust multi-layer broadband coating, with eight layers on both sides, ensures that only Schneider lenses and B+W filters benefit from such comprehensive protection.

The MRC Nano coating adds an additional layer of defense, utilizing nanotechnology to create a lotus effect that repels water and makes cleaning the filter faster and easier than ever. The improved outer layer of the MRC Nano ensures that your filter remains scratch-resistant, water- and dirt-repellent, and less prone to ghosting or double images caused by return reflections from sensors.

In summary, the 30.5mm XS-Pro UV MRC Nano #010M Filter is a reliable, durable, and effective solution for photographers seeking to improve their image quality while providing robust protection for their lenses. Whether you're capturing landscapes, seascapes, or architectural wonders, this filter is an essential tool for achieving pristine and vibrant photographic results.
