Nikon L39 UV Filter - 52mm

The Nikon L-39 52mm UV filter is a high-quality, Japanese-made optical filter designed to block ultraviolet light and reduce atmospheric haze—perfect for both protection and improved image clarity in daylight shooting. Originally made by Nippon Kogaku, Nikon’s predecessor, this filter is built to vintage standards with excellent optical coatings and durable brass threading.

The L-39 refers to the 390nm cutoff, meaning it effectively blocks UV wavelengths below that point, helping reduce blue cast and haze in film photography and protecting your front element when shooting digital.
