At a glance: The Urth 58mm UV Filter Plus+ is a clear protective filter for 58mm lens threads, with SCHOTT B270 glass, a 30-layer coating and about 99% light transmission.

About this accessory

This 58mm Plus+ UV filter is built on German SCHOTT B270 glass. A 30-layer CoraNano coating on both faces keeps reflections to a stated 0.38% and transmission to 99.00%, and the L41 cut-off trims atmospheric haze. The 6061 aluminium frame is ultra-slim.

Because it passes about 99% of the light, it can stay on the lens all day without exposure changes. Urth's Plus+ tier sits between Standard and Pro, adding German glass and a denser coating over the entry tier.

Frequently asked questions

Will the 58mm UV Filter Plus+ fit my lens?

It suits lenses with a 58mm filter thread, regardless of brand. The thread size is printed on the lens, usually as ø58 on the front rim or on the inside of the lens cap. The number is the filter thread, not the focal length.

Does the Plus+ UV filter need exposure compensation?

No compensation is needed. With a stated 99.00% transmission, very little light is lost.

Is Plus+ worth it over the Standard UV filter?

Standard uses Japanese AGC glass with a multi-layer coating. Plus+ uses German SCHOTT B270 glass with a 30-layer dual-side coating, and Pro uses tempered AERO-C10 glass with a 34-layer coating.

Can one 58mm filter be shared between lenses?

Yes. Step-up rings let a 58mm filter fit lenses with smaller threads, so one filter can cover several lenses. Watch for vignetting with wide-angle lenses when a ring is fitted.

  • A proper little treasure trove

    3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
