Product Information

Full details

The Fujifilm PRF-72 is a 72mm protective filter designed for photographers seeking to safeguard their lenses from dust, dirt, and scratches. Its key benefit lies in its advanced Super EBC coating, which minimizes reflections and prevents ghosting, ensuring image quality remains unaffected. A caveat to note is that attaching this filter to the FinePix S1 requires an additional adapter ring, and neither can be used with the lens hood.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Fujifilm PRF-72 filter?

The primary purpose is to protect the camera lens from dust, dirt, scratches, and minor impacts.

Does this filter affect image quality?

No, the filter features an advanced Super EBC coating with minimal reflection (0.3% or less) designed to maintain high image quality without introducing ghosting or flares.

Do I need anything else to use this filter with the FinePix S1?

Yes, you will need the Fujifilm Adaptor Ring for the FinePix S1 to attach the 72mm PRF-72 filter.

Can I use this filter with a lens hood?

For the FinePix S1, the adapter ring and filter cannot be used in conjunction with the lens hood. Compatibility with other lenses and hoods may vary.

Is this filter suitable for stacking with other filters?

Yes, the thin-frame design is intended to prevent vignetting when stacking multiple filters.

What does 'Super EBC Coating' mean?

Super EBC stands for Electron Beam Coating. This advanced coating helps to reduce ghosting and flares by limiting harmful reflections.

How do I clean the filter?

Use a soft lens brush or a clean microfiber cloth. For stubborn smudges, use a lens cleaning solution sparingly on the cloth.

Troubleshooting

Filter does not screw on smoothly.

Ensure the filter size matches the lens thread. Check for any debris on the lens thread or the filter's mounting threads. Do not force the filter; realign and try again gently.

Visible reflections or ghosting persists.

While the Super EBC coating minimizes these, extreme lighting conditions might still cause minor artifacts. Ensure the filter is clean. Try adjusting your shooting angle relative to the light source.

Vignetting occurs in wide-angle shots.

This filter is designed with a thin frame to prevent vignetting. If it occurs, ensure no other filters are stacked, or check if the lens hood is interfering (if applicable and compatible).

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides essential protection against physical damage to the lens.
  • Advanced coating significantly reduces unwanted reflections and ghosting.
  • Maintains high image quality with minimal impact on light transmission.
  • Thin design avoids vignetting when used with other filters.
  • Easy screw-on attachment for quick setup.

Cons

  • Requires an adapter ring for use with the FinePix S1 camera.
  • Cannot be used simultaneously with the lens hood on certain cameras.
  • Specific size (72mm) means it's not universally compatible across all lenses.
  • Adds a slight physical dimension to the front of the lens.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Fujifilm PRF-72 screws directly onto the 72mm filter thread located on the front of compatible lenses. Ensure the lens thread is clean before attaching the filter to avoid cross-threading.

Compatibility:

  • Lenses: FUJINON LENS XF10-24mmF4 R OIS, FUJINON LENS XF50-140mmF2.8 R LM OIS WR.
  • Camera: Fujifilm FinePix S1 (Requires the Fujifilm Adaptor Ring for FinePix S1).

Important Note: The adapter ring and filter cannot be used in conjunction with the lens hood for the FinePix S1.

Care:

  • Clean the filter regularly with a soft lens brush or microfiber cloth to remove dust.
  • For smudges or fingerprints, use a lens cleaning solution applied to a microfiber cloth, then gently wipe the filter surface.
  • Store the filter in a protective case when not in use.
