Product Information

Full details

This Urth 39mm UV + Circular Polarizing Lens Filter Kit Plus+ is designed for photographers seeking enhanced image quality and lens protection. It offers a dual benefit of protecting your lens from scratches and dirt while also improving image contrast and reducing unwanted reflections. A potential caveat is the specific 39mm thread size, which requires compatibility with your lens.

FAQs

What is the main difference between the UV filter and the CPL filter?

The UV filter primarily protects your lens and reduces UV light for sharper images, while the CPL filter is used to manage reflections and enhance color saturation by polarizing light.

Can I stack the UV and CPL filters together?

Yes, you can stack both filters. The UV filter is typically mounted first, closest to the lens, followed by the CPL filter.

How do I know if this 39mm filter will fit my lens?

Look for the filter thread size designation on your lens, usually marked with a 'ø' symbol followed by a number (e.g., ø39mm). If your lens specifies 39mm, it should fit.

Will these filters affect my camera's autofocus or exposure?

While filters can slightly affect light transmission, modern camera systems are generally able to compensate. The CPL filter might require a slightly longer exposure or adjustment of exposure compensation in some manual shooting scenarios.

How often should I clean the filters?

Clean the filters as needed, especially if you notice a reduction in image quality due to smudges or dust. Regular cleaning with a microfiber cloth and lens cleaner is recommended.

What do the 'Plus+' markings on the filters signify?

The 'Plus+' designation typically indicates enhanced coatings or improved optical performance compared to standard filter versions.

Troubleshooting

Vignetting (dark corners) in photos

Ensure the filter is securely attached. If the issue persists, it may be due to the filter's thickness combined with a wide-angle lens; try removing one filter or using a lens with a larger thread size if possible.

Difficulty screwing filter onto the lens

Check for any debris or damage on the lens threads or the filter threads. Ensure you are aligning the threads correctly and not cross-threading. Try gently backing the filter out and re-attempting.

Reduced image sharpness

Ensure the filter is clean. Smudges or dust can degrade image quality. Also, verify that the filter is properly seated and not causing any optical misalignment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure your camera lens has a 39mm filter thread. This is typically indicated by a 'ø' symbol followed by '39' on the lens barrel.
  2. Carefully screw the filter onto the lens thread in a clockwise direction.
  3. If using both filters, the UV filter is typically mounted first, closest to the lens, followed by the CPL filter.

Compatibility:

This kit is specifically designed for lenses with a 39mm filter thread size. Check your lens's specifications before purchasing.

Care:

  • Clean the filters regularly using a lens cleaning solution and a microfiber cloth.
  • Avoid touching the filter surface directly.
  • Store the filters in their protective caps when not in use to prevent dust and scratches.
  • Do not use abrasive materials or harsh chemicals for cleaning.
