Nisi 77mm CPL UHC Filter
The NiSi 77 mm UHC CPL is a circular polarizing filter designed to improve your photos and videos by cutting unwanted reflections and glare, boosting color saturation and contrast, and delivering sharper, clearer images. It’s built using high‑quality optical glass (AGC) and features 13‑layer multi‑coating with an “Ultra Hard Coating (UHC)” to ensure durability and scratch resistance. The filter uses an ultra‑slim, knurled frame for easy mounting/unmounting and to minimize vignetting — even with wide-angle lenses. This makes it a great tool to enhance skies, water reflections, architectural scenes, and other scenes with potential glare or haze
Key Features
- Circular Polarizer (CPL): Cuts polarized light to reduce reflections/glare from non‑metallic surfaces (water, glass, foliage, etc.).
- 13‑Layer Multi‑Coating + Ultra‑Hard Coating: Maintains high light transmission, reduces flare/reflections, ensures scratch resistance, and prolongs filter life.
- High‑Quality AGC Optical Glass: Provides sharpness, clarity, accurate colors — even with high-megapixel cameras or UHD/8K video.
- Waterproof / Oil‑Proof / Dust‑Resistant Nano Coatings: Makes cleaning easier; keeps the filter usable in challenging outdoor environments (rain, dust, humidity).
- Ultra‑Slim, Knurled Aluminum Frame: Slim design reduces vignetting (dark corners) even with wide-angle lenses; knurled edges make it easier to grip and mount/unmount.
- High Polarization Efficiency (~ 99.9 – 99.99 %): Strong polarization effect for deeper skies, richer foliage, clearer water, reduced haze — resulting in vibrant, high‑contrast images.
Best Suitable
- Landscape Photography: Enhances skies and natural scenes — reduces haze, boosts contrast, and makes foliage/water more vivid.
- Travel & Outdoor Photography: Durable build + protective coatings make it ideal for travel, hiking, adventure, and variable weather/outdoor conditions.
- Architectural & Cityscape Photography: Helps cut glare from glass/buildings — useful when shooting urban scenes, windows, water reflections.
- Videography / High‑Resolution Photography: Maintains sharpness even with high‑megapixel sensors or UHD/8K video — good for professional-level video and photo work.
- General Purpose Outdoor / Nature / Street Photography: Great for everyday shooting outdoors to get richer colors, deeper skies, and reduced reflections.
