Haida 82mm Greystone Multi-Coated UV Filter HD4775-82

What this filter is and who it suits

The Haida Greystone is an 82 mm UV filter built from premium optical glass in a lightweight aluminium-alloy ring. It absorbs ultraviolet light to cut the bluish cast common in daylight shots while leaving colour balance and exposure unchanged. The 10-layer multi-coating suppresses ghosting and reflections and adds resistance to dust, moisture and scratches. It is aimed at photographers who want constant front-element protection without sacrificing clarity.

Check your lens before ordering

Confirm that your lens accepts 82 mm screw-in filters; the thread size is printed on the barrel or in the manual. The filter adds an ultra-slim frame to minimise vignetting, yet you should still verify clearance with any hood you plan to use. Note that the front of the filter carries 52 mm threads for stacking, so additional accessories must match that diameter. No adapter rings are included.

Who benefits and who should look elsewhere

Landscape, travel and everyday shooters who leave a protector on the lens at all times will appreciate the durable coating and neutral colour rendition. Buyers who need a larger or smaller thread size, or who want a circular polariser or neutral-density filter instead of UV protection, should look at a different model. Videographers requiring matched filter sets for a matte-box workflow will also need another solution.
