NiSi Filter UV Armor FX Pro Nano L395 62mm – Explosion-proof UV protection for lenses

Protect your lens with the NiSi UV Armor FX Pro Nano L395 62mm. It uses an explosion-proof laminated design that can remain cracked without shattering after a strong impact, reducing the risk of damage to your front element and coatings.

Explosion-proof laminated construction

NiSi Armor FX adopts the laminated design used in high-end automobile front windshields. As a result, the filter is constructed to avoid the formation of loose glass fragments. Consequently, it minimizes the risk of scratches to the front element and lens coatings if the glass is subjected to strong impact.

Moreover, this is the original design from NiSi Explosion-Proof Cinema Filters, and it sees wide use on high-end cinema lenses, where protection and safety are priorities during demanding shoots.

Frame design and handling

The filter features a unique frame made of twill brass and a patented two-color design. You can install and remove it easily thanks to this thoughtful construction. In addition, the frame is ultra slim at 3.9 mm and includes knurling for a better grip when mounting or removing the filter.

For added convenience, the front of the filter includes a filter thread so you can attach additional accessories or caps without removing the filter.

Optical performance and coatings

This UV filter absorbs ultraviolet light below 395 nm, which helps improve image clarity by reducing UV-light interference. The filter uses the highest quality CINE optical glass and is specified to cause no loss of sharpness.

Furthermore, the glass has double-sided nano coatings with multi low-reflection layers. These coatings deliver a 99% transmittance rate and provide maximum reduction of glare and ghosting artifacts. They also make the filter double-sided waterproof and oil-proof, helping to protect the lens from dust and damage.

Wide-angle compatibility and maintenance

The ultra-slim 3.9 mm frame prevents vignetting on wide-angle lenses, including at 14 mm on full-frame cameras. At the same time, the double-sided coatings and construction make the filter super-easy to clean and maintain during regular use.
