What this filter is and who needs it
The Tiffen 43HZE is a 43mm UV Haze 1 camera filter designed for photographers who want to reduce ultraviolet light and the bluish cast common in daylight, high-altitude or water-side scenes. It adds no extra colour or contrast so it can stay on the lens or be stacked with other filters. Photographers whose lenses use a different thread size cannot use this filter.
Build quality and daily handling
Each filter uses ColorCore construction: the substrate is laminated between two pieces of optical glass, ground flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch and mounted in a precision metal ring. The clear glass protects the front element from dust, moisture and accidental scratches while remaining neutral enough for everyday use. The metal ring threads cleanly onto any 43mm lens barrel.
The specification that decides fit
The only measurement that determines compatibility is the 43mm thread size; the filter fits any camera lens with that exact thread diameter. If your lens shows a different thread size this filter will not mount.

Questions about this item
What lens thread size does the 43mm UV Haze 1 filter fit?
The filter screws onto any lens with a 43mm front thread, which is the standard diameter marked on the barrel or lens cap.
How thick is the filter ring, and will it vignette on wide-angle lenses?
The precision metal ring is ground flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, keeping the profile slim enough to avoid vignetting on most wide-angle lenses.
How do I install the filter without cross-threading the threads?
Align the filter squarely with the lens threads, turn gently counter-clockwise until you feel the threads seat, then rotate clockwise to tighten; forcing it straight on is the common mistake.
