2.Do UV filters reduce image quality ?

The sensor in a digital camera can handle most of the effects of UV light very well, but ultraviolet light still have an effect on digital photos . mainly affecting the camera’s  white balance of the image. It often makes an image bluer. e.g. on the beach or mountain top at a higher elevation.  The majority of modern film cameras will not be affected by UV light , when a UV protection lens filter is used  to protect your expensive lens . UV filter protects your lens from dirt, scratches, fingerprints, and accidental damage. Some people feel that using a UV filter will reduce the quality image, but a high quality UV filter will have a minimal effect on the original performance of the lens.

Some people feel that using a filter which ultraviolet light blocking glasses will reduce the image quality, this depends on the quality of the UV filter used. With kfconcept UV filters, the 99.9% transmission rate of the filter ensures without colour cast and image quality loss (picture realism), and the multi-layer coated HD optics use K&F Concept's exclusive coating technology, with reflections rate lower 0.15%  to ensure ultra-high light transmission, reducing glare and ghosting that can occur when the filter is mounted to the lens, and having original performance with little or no impact. High quality UV filters provide with more reliable support for photographers' creations.
