UV Protective Filter for Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR — UV-Absorbing, Optically Neutral 1x (+0) — Dust & Scratch Protection

Fits Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR. Intended to reduce the ultraviolet light that creates hazy, low-contrast images in bright outdoor conditions — particularly at high altitudes, by the ocean, or on snowy terrain — this filter cuts the bluish cast of daylight so photos render more natural tones and improved clarity. The element is optically neutral and clear with a 1x filter factor (+0 stop), so it does not change exposure, contrast, or color balance; your images keep their original sharpness, fine detail, and accurate colors while benefitting from UV reduction. Built to stay on the lens continuously, it acts as a physical barrier against scratches, dust, dirt, water spots, and fingerprints, and helps protect the front element from accidental contact, drops, bumps, or abrasions — extending the usable life of your lens.
