UV filters are an important part of camera lens care and cleaning. In addition to reducing UV light to help deliver clearer, higher-contrast images with less haze, a UV filter can also be fitted to the front of your lens to help protect it from dust, dirt and scratches. See our lens filter buying guide for more information.

The new Hoya UX UV filters include a water-repellent coating that makes it easier to wipe away smudges and fingerprints from the filter surface. They also feature an anti-reflective coating and a slim profile.

UX stands for user experience. Hoya developed this filter range to meet the needs of beginners looking for quality results at an affordable price. A practical addition to your kit, these filters come from Hoya, a brand you can trust.
