Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Manufactured from high-quality Water-White Schott Glass, ensuring exceptional optical clarity without color shift
  • Features MRC (Multi-Resistant Coating) by B+W, which is harder than glass, providing superior scratch protection

  • Includes a front accessory thread on the mount, allowing for additional filters or lens caps to be attached
  • The 86mm size is suitable for lenses with a matching filter thread, providing broad compatibility for larger lenses

👎 Cons

  • As a protection filter, it does not offer creative effects like polarization or variable ND, focusing solely on protection
  • The 86mm size is specific and only compatible with lenses that have an 86mm filter thread, not universally fitting
  • While MRC is scratch-resistant, it is not impervious to all forms of damage or extreme impact
  • The brass mount, while durable, might add slightly more weight compared to aluminum mounts, though not specified
  • The filter itself is clear, meaning it doesn't correct for specific lighting conditions or atmospheric haze
