67mm UV/IR Cut Filter for Digital Lenses
This 67mm B+W 486M filter blocks ultraviolet and infrared light using interference technology with wafer-thin layers. It delivers sharp, colour-neutral images without exposure compensation. The clear construction makes it suitable for permanent attachment on compatible lenses.
Upgrades Basic UV Filters When Colour Accuracy
Standard UV filters only address ultraviolet wavelengths; this model adds a sharp infrared cut-off to prevent colour casts and blurring from IR pollution. The jump is worth it for digital sensors sensitive to both spectra, especially when shooting in conditions with strong IR contamination.
Limited to Lenses with 67mm Thread and ≤60° Angle
The filter fits 67mm filter threads and is rated for lenses with an aperture angle up to 60 degrees. Wider-angle lenses may experience vignetting or fall outside the optimised interference performance. It does not adapt to other thread sizes or filter systems.

Questions about this item
What filter thread size does the 67mm Basic 486M MRC UV/IR Cut Filter require on the lens?
It requires a 67 mm front filter thread on the lens for direct mounting.
How is the 67mm Basic 486M MRC UV/IR Cut Filter installed, and what common mistake should be avoided?
Screw it onto the 67 mm thread until snug; the mistake is over-tightening, which can bind the ring and make removal difficult.
What ongoing care does the Multi-Resistant Coating on the 486M filter need?
Clean with a blower and microfibre cloth; the MRC coating resists smudges and water, so harsh chemicals are unnecessary.
