NiSi 72mm SMC UV Filter

The NiSi 72mm SMC UV Filter is a premium protective solution that utilizes high-quality Japanese optical glass to ensure exceptional light transmittance and a highly smooth surface. By employing a specialized double-sided, multi-coating technology, the filter effectively eliminates unnecessary reflections while protecting your lens from dust and front-element damage. This construction ensures that your images remain sharp and clear, making it an essential piece of equipment for maintaining the integrity of your professional optics.

Engineered with a focus on precision, the filter features an ultra-thin 5.2mm aluminum frame, currently recognized as the thinnest in the world. This low-profile design, combined with superfine dull polishing and elaborate knurling, prevents blanching from repeated use and helps avoid vignetting when used on super-wide-angle lenses. Additionally, the frame includes a front screw thread for easy attachment of lens caps and accessories, all while adhering to strict ROHS environmental standards to ensure no hazardous materials are used.

Product Features in Detail

Premium Japanese Optical Glass

The NiSi SMC UV filter is crafted using high-quality Japanese optical glass, renowned for its purity and clarity. This ensures a highly smooth surface and maximum light transmittance, allowing your camera to capture high-resolution images without the "softness" or distortion often introduced by lower-grade glass filters.

Double-Sided Multi-Coating (SMC)

Utilizing advanced Super Multi-Coating (SMC) technology on both sides of the lens, this filter is designed to suppress ghosting and flare. By significantly reducing internal reflections, the coating ensures your photos maintain high contrast and accurate color balance, even when shooting toward a light source.

World-Class Ultra-Thin 5.2mm Frame

At just 5.2mm thick, this filter features one of the thinnest frames in the world. This low-profile design is specifically engineered for modern wide-angle and super-wide-angle lenses, ensuring that the filter frame does not intrude into the corners of your frame (vignetting).

Durable Anti-Blanching Finish

The high-quality aluminum frame undergoes a superfine dull polishing and elaborate knurling process. This specialized treatment ensures the matte black finish won't "blanch" or fade over time due to friction or repeated rotation, maintaining a professional look and a secure grip for years of use.

Integrated Front Accessory Threads

Despite its ultra-thin profile, the NiSi SMC UV filter includes a precision-cut front screw thread. This allows you to securely attach your original lens cap, stack additional filters, or mount a lens hood without the need for specialized adapters or proprietary clip-on systems.

Eco-Friendly ROHS Certification

All materials used in the construction of this filter—from the glass to the coatings and the metal frame—meet the European Union’s strict ROHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) standards. This guarantees that the product contains no hazardous materials, making it safe for both the user and the environment.
