Emissivity

I use this filter on a rifle scope stacked with a linear polarization lens to cut Emissivity. The Kolari version is better, but, the Kolari adds a green tint to the visual that I find distracting. B+W keeps a much truer image while not clearing the visual clutter quite as well. There are always trade offs. For me the B+W is a better match.

Ordered new, received used

As the title implies, the unit I received was used: the seal on box was already sliced open and a minor scratch on the thread indicates prior use. Otherwise, I could not detect any flaws on the glass.

Does what its suppose to do with great clarity.

This B+W Interference Filter has a completely colorless glass carrier coated with a number of extremely thin, partially reflecting layers with precisely computed thicknesses, similar to MC coating.

The B+W Filter 486 does not block by means of absorption, but by interference of the unwanted UV- and IR radiation that is repeatedly reflected between these layers.

It is especially recommended for CCD applications where digital image sensors have not been fitted with an IR protection filter.
This filter is completely clear and it requires no increase in exposure. Its filter factor is 1.
