Product Description
Hoya engineers have developed a new ANTISTATIC coating that acts like a force
field around the filter to repel dust. Perfect for environments where dust is
common, these filters require less frequent cleaning and maintenance than
traditional filters. Additionally, the hardened, antistatic top-layer is water
repellent, stain and scratch resistant, and cleans easily when smudges or
fingerprints are introduced to the surface.
The new EVO ANTISTATIC professional filters are made in Japan using hand
selected silicates that are carefully smelted and blended to yield high
performance optical glass. Hoya then uses extreme care and precision to apply
the Improved 16-layer Super Multi-coating formula which greatly reduces or
eliminates reflections on the surface of the glass and yields a 99.8% light
transmission rate. This means the filter has virtually no effect on the color
balance, contrast, or clarity of the final image.
The filters in the new EVO ANTISTATIC series utilize a lightweight, one-piece,
low-profile aluminum frame to house the glass. This one-piece design allows the
filter to maintain perfect parallel alignment to the sensor plane for maximum
sharpness, while the low-profile frame eliminates vignetting when used on
ultra-wide-angle lenses.
