Overview

The Tiffen 82mm Digital HT UV Protector is built for photographers and videographers who want uncompromising lens protection without any optical penalty. At the heart of this filter is Tiffen's Hi-Trans Double-Sided Titanium Multi-Coating, a proprietary treatment that exceeds military specifications for surface hardness. This means the filter resists scratches far better than conventional multi-coated glass, and fingerprints or smudges wipe away cleanly without leaving residue. The high-transmission design ensures that light passes through with minimal loss, preserving the sharpness, contrast, and color accuracy your lens was engineered to deliver.

Constructed from optical-grade glass in an 82mm thread mount, the Digital HT UV Protector is intended to stay on your lens at all times. It absorbs ultraviolet light that can cause a subtle haze in outdoor shooting, while simultaneously acting as a physical shield against dust, grime, and the occasional bump that could otherwise damage a far more expensive front element. The filter adds negligible weight and thickness, and it accepts standard lens caps and hoods without interference. Tiffen's confidence in the build quality is reflected in the 10-year warranty, making this a long-term investment in lens care for any serious imaging kit.

Leave It on Your Lens Every Day – A clear, non-effect protective filter that helps guard the front element from scratches and environmental hazards without affecting exposure settings, color balance, or creative intent.

Confident Compatibility – Choose the right fit before you buy: check the front rim of your camera lens for the “Ø” symbol followed by a millimeter size, such as Ø58mm. This number is your lens filter size, not the focal length. Select the filter with the matching millimeter size to ensure proper fit, reduce ordering mistakes, and get ready to shoot with confidence.
