Hoya 58mm C2 Blue Cooling Color Correction Multi-Coated Glass Filter

You can elevate your photography with the 58mm C2 Blue Cooling Color Correction Multi-Coated Glass Filter, designed to enhance image quality and color accuracy. This high-quality filter cools the ambient light entering your 58mm lens by 200 degrees Kelvin (-20 mired shift), adding a blue hue to your overall exposure. This feature is particularly beneficial when you're working with tungsten-balanced film and the light source is warmer than the traditional 3200 degrees K. Common warm light sources include candles and low watt incandescent bulbs.

In addition, this durable filter is an excellent tool when you're shooting at sunrise or sunset with daylight-balanced film (5500 degrees K) and the scene appears too warm. The blue cooling effect of the filter helps to neutralize the warmth, resulting in a more natural look in your images.

The multi-coated design of this filter is another key feature, recommended for enhancing the performance of today's multi-coated lenses. This multi-coating minimizes reflection, reduces flare and ghosting, and ensures over 97% average light transmission. This results in improved image quality and contrast, making the 58mm C2 Blue Cooling Color Correction Multi-Coated Glass Filter an essential tool for photographers aiming for the highest quality images.
