B + W 37mm XS-Pro Clear MRC Nano #007M Filter

After investing in a high-quality camera lens, the next step is to protect it with the B&W XS-Pro Digital NANO Multi-Coated (MRC) Clear #007 Filter. This clear filter is designed for both color and black and white photography, serving as a reliable lens protector that can significantly increase the lifespan of your lens.

The value of a clear filter is well-documented, acting as a form of inexpensive insurance against potential damage. Whether it's a story about a photographer dropping a lens or smashing front elements, a front lens protection filter can drastically reduce the risk of damage to your valuable glass.

The B&W XS-Pro Digital Filter Series stands out with its newly developed mounting ring, specifically designed for SLRs with wide-angle and zoom lenses. Its ultra-thin design ensures that the mounting ring doesn't cause vignetting, even in the widest shots.

The XS-Pro Digital Filters are equipped with front threads, allowing for the mounting of additional accessories such as filters, screw-on shades, and lens covers. The filter rings are constructed from brass and are matte black to prevent unwanted reflections.

One of the standout features of this filter is Schneider's Proprietary MRC Coating. This unique Multi Resistant Coating, developed by Schneider-Kreuznach, provides perfect anti-reflection, brilliant colors, and high contrast. This extremely resistant multi-layer broadband coating (eight layers on both sides) is standard on all B+W XS-Pro Digital Filters.

The MRC coating also includes a scratch-resistant, water- and dirt-repellent outer layer. This makes cleaning the glass surface simpler and faster than ever before. With its low residual reflection (0.5%), MRC prevents ghosting or double images, which can be caused by return reflections from sensors.

The filter also features a nanotechnology-based outer layer of protection, known as the nano coating. This coating enhances the beading effect with water, making the cleaning process even easier.

The B&W XS-Pro Digital NANO Multi-Coated (MRC) Clear #007 Filter uses the XS-Pro Digital mount, which is particularly suited for DSLRs with wide-angle and zoom lenses. It also has a front thread for additional accessories such as lens caps or hoods. All XS-Pro Digital mounts are made of brass and are matte black to prevent reflections.

In summary, this filter offers comprehensive protection for your lens, enhancing image quality while ensuring your lens stays in top condition for longer.
