Essential UV Protection for 27mm Lenses
This Tiffen UV glass filter blocks ultraviolet rays to reduce haze and improve image sharpness. It acts as a permanent lens guard against dust, scratches and accidental impacts. The optical glass maintains resolution and clarity without affecting colour or contrast. It suits photographers who want clearer, more vibrant images in varied lighting conditions.
Ideal for Daily Lens Protection
Photographers shooting at high altitudes or over water benefit from reduced bluish cast caused by UV light. The filter absorbs no normal light, so it can stay mounted at all times without altering exposure. It is not suited for users who need creative effects such as polarisation or neutral density control. Buyers requiring a different thread diameter should look for the matching size.
Simple Screw-On Installation
The filter threads directly onto any 27mm lens front, requiring no tools or adapters. Over-tightening can make removal difficult, so finger-tight is sufficient. Vignetting may occur on ultra-wide lenses if the filter frame is thick, though the slim design minimises this risk. Clean with a microfibre cloth to avoid coating damage.

Questions about this item
Does my lens need a 27mm thread to accept this filter?
Yes, the filter mounts directly onto any lens with a 27mm front thread so no step-up or step-down ring is required.
Can I leave this filter on when stacking a circular polariser or ND filter?
The thin glass profile allows another 27mm filter to thread on top, though stacking may increase vignetting on wide-angle lenses.
How can I confirm the filter is cutting UV haze after I fit it?
Shoot a distant landscape with and without the filter; the filtered frame should show noticeably less blue cast and sharper contrast in the far detail.
