  • Clear glass needs no exposure compensation
  • MRC coating boosts transmission and cuts reflections
  • Protects lens permanently on angles up to 60 degrees

43mm UV/IR Cut Filter for Digital Cameras

The B+W 43mm Basic 486M MRC UV/IR Cut Filter blocks unwanted ultraviolet and infrared light to improve colour accuracy and image clarity. It uses an interference method with wafer-thin layers rather than coloured glass absorption. The clear, colourless design requires no exposure adjustment and protects the front lens element permanently.

Simple Thread-On Installation With MRC Coating

The filter screws directly onto any lens with a 43mm front thread. Multi-resistant coating reduces reflections and increases light transmission while making the surface easier to clean. Vignetting may appear on lenses with an aperture angle wider than 60 degrees, where a subtle bluish tint can occur at the image edges.

Suited for General Photography Up to 60-Degree Angle

Photographers wanting a permanent protective filter that also corrects digital sensor IR leakage will benefit. Users of ultra-wide lenses exceeding a 60-degree aperture angle should look at alternatives to avoid edge vignetting and colour shift. The filter is not designed for specialised scientific or narrow-band applications.

  • Blocks UV and infrared light for accurate colours

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 43mm Basic 486M MRC UV/IR Cut Filter is working correctly after mounting it?

Take test shots in bright daylight and under artificial light; images should show accurate colours without the reddish or magenta cast that unfiltered infrared light creates on digital sensors.

What comes in the box with the 43mm Basic 486M MRC UV/IR Cut Filter and what must I purchase separately?

The filter itself is supplied; a compatible 43mm lens cap, cleaning cloth or protective pouch are not included and must be bought separately if required.

Which version of the 43mm Basic 486M MRC UV/IR Cut Filter should I choose for a lens with a 60-degree aperture angle?

This single 43mm model (part 66-1102740) is designed for lenses up to 60 degrees; choose it when your lens thread is 43mm and the angle of view falls within that limit.
