Developed using a clear glass ceramic substrate, this filter blends a high 99.76% transmittance value with greater hardness than chemically-strengthened glass and greater flexibility than sapphire crystal glass. This results in a build that is shock- and scratch-resistant to withstand a variety of impacts while shooting. Additionally, a water-repellent coating has also been applied to resist water droplets and fingerprint smudging, as well as static electricity from attracting dust or other particles. Built for use in trying conditions, the unique design of the WR Ceramic Protector Filter helps to maintain the lens' inherent image quality while affording a high degree of protection.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sectionHeaders js-hiddenFeatures\"\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium; color: #000000;\"\u003eClear protection filter guards the front lens element from a variety of impacts and scratching without affecting image quality.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/dd\u003e\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium; color: #000000;\"\u003eClear glass ceramic is a highly durable substrate that has a greater hardness than chemically-strengthened glass and more flexibility than sapphire crystal glass.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/dd\u003e\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\u003cdd class=\"featuredd c28\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium; color: #000000;\"\u003eUnique construction has a Vickers hardness number of 700HV, making it both scratch- and shock-resistant.
