Urth 43mm Star Lens Filter Kit - 4, 6, 8-Point

The primary purpose is to create visually appealing starburst or star flare effects from points of light in your photographs, adding a creative element to landscapes and night scenes.

The effect is most pronounced with small, bright, direct light sources. Using a smaller aperture (higher f-number) on your lens also helps to sharpen the star points.

This specific kit is for lenses with a 43mm filter thread. Urth offers other sizes for different lenses. Always confirm your lens's filter thread size before purchasing.

It refers to the number of points or rays that the starburst effect will have. A 4-point filter creates a 4-pointed star, a 6-point creates a 6-pointed star, and an 8-point creates an 8-pointed star.

No, this filter is compatible with any camera that has a 43mm lens thread. The effect is achieved through the filter's design interacting with light.

This product is designed for Japanese voltage (90-110V). A voltage transformer is mandatory for use in regions with different voltage standards. Using it without a transformer can damage the product.

Urth partners with organizations to plant 5 trees in deforested areas for every filter purchased, helping to restore ecosystems.

Ensure you are shooting with a strong, direct light source. The effect is most noticeable with point light sources like streetlights, distant stars, or specular highlights. Also, check that the filter is clean and properly attached.

Clean the filter surface with a microfiber cloth. The nano-coating helps reduce flare, but dirt or smudges can negate this benefit.

This is a passive filter and does not require power. If you are experiencing issues related to power, double-check your voltage transformer and connections, ensuring they match the product's requirements.

Ensure you are using the correct filter size (43mm) for your lens. Align the threads carefully when attaching and avoid forcing the filter. If it's stuck, try gently wiggling it while unscrewing.
