NiSi Filter UV Armor FX Pro Nano L395 43mm

NiSi Filter UV Armor FX Pro Nano L395 43mm – Explosion-proof laminated protection and UV cut below 395nm

This NiSi UV Armor FX Pro Nano L395 43mm filter serves as a protective shield for your lens. It uses an explosion-proof laminated design that can remain cracked without shattering after a strong impact, helping to prevent glass fragments from reaching the front element or its coatings.

Explosion-proof laminated construction and lens protection

The Armor FX adopts the same laminated approach used in high-end automobile front windshields. As a result, the filter is constructed to avoid the formation of loose glass fragments. This design minimizes the risk of scratches to the front element and lens coatings, keeping your optics safer during demanding shoots.

Because of this protective construction, the filter helps to keep your lens protected when shooting in all kinds of scenes and environments.

Frame design and handling features

• Twill brass frame: The filter features a unique twill brass frame with a patented two-color design that makes it easy to identify, install and remove.
• Ultra-slim profile: The frame measures 3.9 mm in thickness, reducing the chance of vignetting on wide-angle lenses.
• Knurled edge: The frame includes knurling for a better grip during mounting and removal.
• Front filter thread: The filter includes a front thread for added convenience, allowing you to attach additional filters or accessories.
• No vignetting on wide-angle lenses: The design prevents vignetting even at 14mm on full-frame cameras.

Optical performance and coatings

The NiSi Armor FX Pro Nano L395 acts as a UV filter by absorbing ultraviolet light with wavelengths below 395 nm. By reducing UV interference, it helps improve image clarity in scenes where ultraviolet light would otherwise affect the image.

It uses double-sided nano coatings with multi low-reflection layers, which boast a 99% transmittance rate. These coatings reduce glare and ghosting artifacts, while also making the glass double-sided waterproof and oil-proof. That combination helps protect the lens from dust and damage and makes maintenance easier.

The filter is made with CINE optical glass designed to preserve sharpness, and the surface treatments make it super-easy to clean.

Smart FAQs

Question: Will this filter prevent my lens from shattering if it takes a direct hit?
Answer: The Armor FX Pro Nano L395 uses an explosion-proof laminated design that can remain cracked without shattering after a strong impact. That construction reduces the formation of loose glass fragments and helps protect the front element and its coatings, though it does not make the lens indestructible.

Question: Can I use this filter on wide-angle lenses without vignetting?
Answer: Yes. The filter’s ultra-slim 3.9 mm frame and design are specified to cause no vignetting, including at 14mm on full-frame cameras.

Question: How does the filter affect image quality and clarity?
Answer: The filter absorbs UV light below 395 nm to reduce UV interference and employs double-sided nano multi low-reflection coatings with a 99% transmittance rate. These features reduce glare and ghosting while preserving sharpness, thanks to the CINE optical glass.

Question: Is the surface easy to clean and maintain?
Answer: Yes. The double-sided nano coatings are waterproof and oil-proof, which makes the surface easier to clean and helps protect the lens from dust and damage during use.
