The Kenko 52mm Pro1D Protector is the ultimate in clear filters. It will not affect the color balance or performance of your lenses in the slightest. However, constant use will protect your valued lenses from expensive front element damage which could be caused by dirt, knocks or scratches.

This medium-class filter series was developed in the mid-2000s when digital single-lens reflex cameras were popular. Adopting digital multi-coat technology, these filters achieve an overall filter transparency of 99% (protector) with a minimum price premium. The new-concept filter series employs a black-painted frame for reduced reflection in the glass, a knurled frame for easy attachment, and other user-friendly features. These filters function well not only with digital cameras but also with film cameras.

Digital Multi-Coated

Digital multi-coated filters greatly reduce the appearance of lens flare and ghosting caused by reflections.

Black Almite Frame

Filters feature a black matte aluminum satin finish almite frame which reduces reflections.

Black Rimmed Glass

These filters are equipped with black rimmed glass to reduce the chance of light reflecting off the edge.

Low Profile Frame

Ultra thin filter frames to help avoid vignetting on super wide angle lenses are also designed to hold a lens cap.

Knurling Edge Frame

These filters are equipped with a straight knurling edge for non-slip, easy attachment and removal.

UV Protected Case

Filter cases are UV protected to further lengthen the life of filters.
