Tiffen Digital Photo Video - Manual (Page 4)

Safeguard your lens
and absorb UV light
Film and video are more sensitive to UV light than
our eyes are. This often shows up as a bluish cast
in images, especially shots from high altitudes and
long distances, particularly over water. Ultra Violet
filters are available in a variety of UV absorption
levels. Protects your camera or camcorder lens
against dust, moisture, fingerprints, scratches and
damage. These filters can be kept on your camera
at all times.
