Haida 77mm NanoPro MC Clear-Night Optical Glass Filter #HD3704-77

The Haida NanoPro MC Clear-Night Filter from Haida is designed to reduce the appearance of light pollution in images or video that include the night sky, and to minimize illumination from artificial light sources. This effect can be obtained when the filter is used on a film camera system with daylight film installed, or on a digital camera system with the daylight white balance setting selected. The NanoPro MC Clear-Night Filter can improve the results of nighttime images by absorbing the yellow light from sodium-vapor lamps, a common light source within urban areas. By preventing the dominant wavelengths of light associated with the color of those lamps from being recorded, the filter enhances visibility of astronomical objects. It ensures that, in the places where they do appear, artificial light sources are more clearly defined, with less glare and improved contrast. To prevent internal ghosting and reflections, each glass surface includes 10 layers of antireflection coatings which offer protection for the filter itself.

An anti-static coating has been applied to the surface of the filter, too, to provide easy removal of dust and dirt, which furthermore offers resistance against water and oil to aid in cleaning and removal of water drops and fingerprints.

The thin filter ring design is ideally suited for use with wide-angle lenses and features multiple light-blocking ridges, a satin finish, and a black ink coating to help further reduce the likelihood of surface reflections that can cause lens flare and ghosting.
