Launch of 55mm Lens Protection Filter 'Protector' for Enhanced Image Quality and Reduced Maintenance | KANI

The lens filter lineup now offers 15 sizes, including the newly announced 55mm, alongside existing sizes of 40.5/43/46/49/52/58/62/67/72/77/82/95/105/112mm. This range caters to more lenses, meeting the needs of photographers.

The filter uses SCHOTT's B270 glass, known for its high transmittance. By keeping the glass surface reflectance within 0.3%, it significantly reduces unwanted reflections, achieving clear image quality. The anti-smudge coating makes lens maintenance easy, ensuring optimal performance over time.

The lens filter is designed to be extremely thin, with a thickness of only 1.1mm and a frame thickness of 3mm, minimizing weight increase while enhancing shooting quality.

Additionally, a magnetic lens cap 'Magnetic Cap HT100 IV-M95' has been released for the square filter holder 'HT100IV' that houses the 'Protector' lens protection filter. Announcement date: March 25, 2024. Direct sales price: 3,980 yen (tax included).

Thanks to its magnetic design, the filter can be attached and detached with a single touch, reducing the risk of dust adhering to the lens during attachment and detachment.
