Hitech 127mm UV Haze 2A Filter with Schott-Desag B270 Crown Optical Glass | BF 127-UVHAZ2A
Most big front-element filters for large diameter lenses are either flimsy or optically mediocre. This one is neither. The Hitech 127mm UV Haze 2A Filter is built around Schott-Desag B270 crown optical glass, a material known for high transmission and low distortion?the kind of glass you find in proper cine lenses, not cheap consumer accessories.
- Schott-Desag B270 crown optical glass: This is not standard window glass or resin. It delivers clear, neutral color rendition and suppresses the bluish haze that often reduces contrast in landscape and outdoor work. You get sharper, punchier images straight out of camera.
- UV and haze filtration: The 2A density cuts UV light without adding a color cast to your whites or shadows. Perfect for high-altitude, coastal, or overcast shooting where atmospheric haze can soften detail.
- 127mm threading: Fits lenses and step-up rings that need that specific 127mm filter thread diameter?no push-on adapters, no loose fit. Screws on firmly and evenly.
- Everyday front-element protection: It pulls double duty as a clear protective layer for your expensive front lens element. Dust, salt spray, and accidental smudges hit the filter, not your glass.
- Low-profile mount: Thin brass ring reduces the chance of vignetting, even on ultra-wide-angle lenses. You can stack filters without risking mechanical interference with the lens barrel.
If you want a UV haze filter that won’t degrade your image quality or feel like an afterthought, this one earns its place on the front of your lens. Simple, durable, and optically honest.
