- Thread Size: 58mm
- Coating: Multi-coating to reduce lens flare and ghosting
- Frame: Slim frame to avoid vignetting on super wide angle lenses
- Material: Aluminium Optical Glass
Key Features
BLOCK UV & IR RAYS FOR SHARPER, CLEANER IMAGES – This UV/IR cut filter eliminates unwanted UV rays below 390nm and IR rays above 700nm, which digital sensors often can’t filter. Improve color accuracy and image clarity.
MULTI-COATED GLASS FOR CRISP, REFLECTION-FREE RESULTS – Engineered with Hoya’s premium multi-coated optical glass minimizes reflections, ghosting, and lens flare. Whether you're photographing outdoor scenes or filming under bright lights, enjoy better clarity, contrast, and color fidelity.
ENGINEERED FOR UNFILTERED CCD and CMOS SENSORS - This is important because unfiltered sensors are extremely susceptible to UV and IR rays just outside the visible spectrum that can have a very negative impact on image quality.
SCREW-IN DESIGN FOR EASY, SECURE ATTACHMENT – The precision-machined 58mm thread ensures a snug, hassle-free fit to your camera lens.
SLIM, LIGHTWEIGHT FRAME TO AVOID VIGNETTING – Built with a slim, durable aluminum frame, the UV/IR Cut filter prevents vignetting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do digital sensors need a UV/IR cut filter if they already have an internal filter stack?
Many digital sensors — particularly modified, specialty, or older CCD units — use minimal or no internal UV/IR cut filtering to maximize sensitivity. Even sensors with standard filter stacks can exhibit residual IR contamination that shifts skin tones toward red or causes foliage to render incorrectly. The Hoya UV/IR Cut addresses both the below-390nm UV range and the above-700nm IR range in a single filter.
How does this filter differ from a standard UV haze filter?
A standard UV filter only blocks ultraviolet wavelengths below approximately 390nm. The UV/IR Cut additionally blocks infrared wavelengths above 700nm — the part of the spectrum that digital sensors are often more sensitive to than human eyes. For shooting in bright sunlight or with high-color-accuracy requirements, the IR cut component is the more meaningful correction.
Will this filter cause a visible color shift or require exposure compensation?
In most shooting conditions, the filter is neutral in its effect on visible light — its purpose is to remove invisible wavelengths rather than modify visible ones. Some shooters using the filter with high IR-sensitive sensors may notice slightly cooler, more accurate color rendition compared to shooting without it. Exposure compensation is generally not required for normal outdoor photography.
Does the multi-coating on this filter reduce flare and ghosting in high-contrast scenes?
Hoya's multi-coating reduces surface reflections at the glass interfaces, which directly lowers the probability of flare streaks and ghost images in scenes with strong light sources — shooting toward windows, stage lighting, or sunlit surfaces. It won't eliminate all flare under extreme backlit conditions, but it substantially reduces the artifacts that uncoated or single-coated glass would produce.
Is the slim aluminum frame compatible with a front lens cap after mounting?
Yes. The slim frame is specifically designed to allow a standard front lens cap to seat properly on the filter's front thread, so you can protect the filter when the lens is not in use without purchasing a larger cap size.
