[p7m13]

Sorry for the silly noob question, but what do you guys use to clean your UV filter? Mine needs some cleaning....

 

[tony_teo]

Lenspen

Micro fibre cloth

If I just want a simple clean, Lenspen will do. If I need a thorough cleaning, I use Kodak lens cleaning paper and cleaning fluid. You can buy from CP. Not cheap though, but it will last you for ages!

 

[Artosoft]

Microfiber cloth only. Also B+W MRC filter, so no cleaning problem.

I use a micro-fibre cloth, the same type as I use for my glasses.

 

[Snoweagle]

I just use lens tissue.

Before cleaning using lenspen/microfiber cloth, use an air blower to blow off any particulars from the filter so that they will not scratch it.

What do you mean by also B+W only? You mean B+W no need to clean?

 

[blazer_workz]

What do you mean by also B+W only? You mean B+W no need to clean?

Not no need to clean..its easy to clean..

 

[yehosaphat]

Not no need to clean..its easy to clean..

Why so? Use both Hoya and B+W... din see the diff in ease of cleaning?

What do you mean by also B+W only? You mean B+W no need to clean?

Because MRC coating of B+W filter is superb and smooth, so no problem cleaning. If you have Hoya filter, you know how difficult is to clean fingerprint on hoya filter. With B+W filter, its so easy... Just use microfiber cloth. Last time I use Hoya filter, but after I try B+W filter, I change all my filter to B+W filter.
