Kolari Vision 58mm IR/UV Cut Color Correcting Hot Mirror Lens Filter

You can elevate your photography experience with the 58mm IR/UV Cut Color Correcting Hot Mirror Lens Filter, also known as a lowpass filter. This innovative product from Kolari Vision is designed to block infrared and some UV light, enabling a full spectrum converted camera to capture images with enhanced color accuracy.

This filter is a perfect companion for a two-spectrum converted camera, offering the best color rendition. It is equipped with an anti-reflective corrosion-resistant coating, which minimizes artifacts and boosts the filter's durability, especially in humid regions.

The 58mm IR/UV Cut Color Correcting Hot Mirror Lens Filter is the first of its kind, specifically designed for use with a full spectrum or two-spectrum converted camera. It mirrors the transmission of the hot mirror filters that cameras typically employ, allowing for regular use of the camera with all the standard white balance presets still functional.

Unlike other hot mirror filters that are clear, this filter is blue, mirroring the original lowpass filters found in cameras. This color confirms that the filter is blocking the same wavelengths.

This filter stands out from the crowd as it does not block light by interference, like the B+W 486 filter, but instead uses absorption. This means that the color will not change regardless of the angle of incidence, avoiding color changes on wide angles around the edges.

The filter requires no exposure compensation and is designed with aggressive IR blockage to eliminate IR leak on all camera models. For outdoor uses, it is recommended to pair it with a UV filter or use it over a two-spectrum conversion to filter out as much UV light as possible.

With the 58mm IR/UV Cut Color Correcting Hot Mirror Lens Filter, you can achieve the best results, transforming a full spectrum camera that would otherwise appear very red without a filter, into a device that captures regular pictures with enhanced color performance.
