Product Information

Full details

The Urth 77mm Plus+ Circular Polarising Filter is designed for professional creators seeking superior contrast and color accuracy. Its key benefit is reducing reflections and enhancing saturation for more vibrant images. A potential caveat is its premium construction, which comes at a higher price point. This filter uses German Schott glass with a 20-layer nano-coating to minimize glare, improve color rendition, and provide protection. It effectively cuts polarized light to boost contrast and color saturation.

FAQs

What is a circular polariser filter used for?

A circular polariser filter reduces glare and reflections from non-metallic surfaces like water, glass, and foliage. It also enhances color saturation and contrast, making skies bluer and landscapes more vibrant.

How do I know if this filter will fit my lens?

Check the thread size of your lens, usually indicated by a circle with a line through it followed by a number (e.g., ø77mm). This filter is designed for 77mm lens threads.

Can I stack other filters on top of this one?

Yes, the Urth Plus+ Circular Polariser filter features a double-threaded design, allowing you to safely stack other filters, such as ND filters, on top of it.

How do I adjust the polarisation effect?

Once the filter is screwed onto your lens, rotate the front ring of the filter. View your camera's screen or viewfinder to see the effect change as you rotate.

Is the coating durable?

The filter features a 20-layer nano-coating that provides enhanced protection against water, oil, and scratches, making it easier to clean and more durable for professional use.

What does 'Plus+' signify in the product name?

The 'Plus+' designation typically refers to Urth's advanced line of filters, featuring higher quality glass, superior coatings, and enhanced performance characteristics compared to their standard filters.

What is the warranty on this filter?

The Urth Plus+ Circular Polariser filter comes with a lifetime guarantee on its durable magnalium frame.

Troubleshooting

Filter causes an unwanted color cast.

Ensure the filter is a 'Polariser' type and not an ND filter. Adjust the rotation of the filter to find the optimal polarization angle. Some minor color shifts can occur with polarizers, especially with certain lens types or at wide angles.

Vignetting (dark corners) in photos.

Confirm the filter is screwed on straight. If vignetting persists, especially with wide-angle lenses, consider using a thinner filter or an adapter. The ultra-slim rim is designed to minimize this.

Difficulty screwing the filter onto the lens.

Check for any debris on the lens threads or the filter threads. Ensure you are aligning the threads correctly and screwing gently. Do not force the filter.

Smudges or streaks on the filter are visible in images.

Clean the filter thoroughly using a microfiber cloth and appropriate lens cleaning solution. Ensure the cloth is clean and free of debris.

  • Excellent glare reduction and color enhancement.
  • Durable and easy-to-clean nano-coating.
  • Slim profile to avoid vignetting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the thread size of your lens (e.g., 77mm).
  2. Gently screw the Urth Plus+ Circular Polariser filter onto the front of your lens clockwise.
  3. Rotate the front ring of the filter to adjust the polarisation effect. Observe the changes in contrast and reflections through your camera's viewfinder or on the LCD screen.

Compatibility:

This filter is designed for 77mm lens threads. Ensure your lens's filter thread size matches 77mm. The filter is double-threaded, allowing you to stack other filters (like ND filters) on top or attach a lens cap. It is compatible with Urth's range of lens accessories.

Care:

  • To clean, use a soft lens brush or a microfiber lens cloth. For stubborn smudges, lightly dampen the cloth with lens cleaning solution.
  • Avoid touching the glass surface directly.
  • Store the filter in its protective case when not in use to prevent scratches and dust.
  • The 20-layer nano-coating provides resistance to water, oil, and scratches, but avoid harsh chemicals.
