Product Highlights

- General Protective Filter
- T* Anti-Reflective Coating
- Slim Profile Filter Ring
- High Quality Glass Construction
The 72mm Carl Zeiss T* UV Filter from Zeiss is a general use, clear filter that helps to absorb ultraviolet light and reduce the bluish cast of daylight. No additional coloration or contrast effects are provided, rendering a clean and natural appearance.
A UV filter is also useful as a general protective filter to leave on lenses at all times. Filters help to reduce dust and moisture from reaching your lens element and provide additional protection in case of drops or situations where scratching could occur.
The T* anti-reflective coating helps to reduce reflections on the filter's surface and promote a better light transmission for high quality imagery. The filter ring is designed with a slim profile to allow its use on wide angle lenses, but front filter threads are still available for the use of additional filters.
- Absorbs UV light and reduces bluish cast of daylight.
- Clear filter provides no additional coloration or contrast, allowing you to pair this filter with others.
- General protection filter reduces dust, moisture, and scratches from reaching lens elements.

Comments about 72mm Carl Zeiss T* UV Filter:
While perhaps it is not mandatory to put a UV filter in front of a lens, I prefer doing so since I usually shoot in difficult environments where salt water, steam, sand and rock debris are the norm. These new filters by Zeiss are very well built, the y thread nicely onto the lens thread.
I also use the filters as a replacement of the lens cap. This saves me time from opening up the lens cap and fumbling with it, finding a place to store it or putting it in my pocket. With the filter the front element is always protected and I don't have to worry about the caps missing or getting in the way.
Optically I see no detriment in picture quality and the T* coating does a very good job minimizing reflections. It also does not create any new ones from light that shines off the lens font element back onto the filter. They are not inexpensive, but I think it is worth paying a few extra bucks.

Comments about 72mm Carl Zeiss T* UV Filter:
I recently splurged on a couple nice Zeiss ZE lenses, the 35mm f1.4 and the 50mm f2.0 Macro. (I blamed it on my healthy tax refund, but seems I may have already spent that...) With the 35mm, I went down to the local pro camera store and bought a decent B+W UV filter, having been of the "better have a UV in front of that lens" mentality. I was never quite gobsmacked with the 35mm. Until I got the 50mm Macro with the Zeiss UV. Gobsmacked to the X. That lens is sweet! So, I took a crazy, insane risk and tried shooting the 35mm without the B+W UV. Gobsmackage. Oops. So, now I generally shoot without UV. When there are rabid puppies or whatever, I'll use these Zeiss UV on my ZE's.

You should trust this product made by Zeiss. Although Sony has similar product, it's quite different with this one not only the brand.
