Pre-Owned - Contax 67MM L39 UV MC
This Contax 67MM L39 UV MC is a vintage camera lens filter with a 67mm diameter that screws onto lenses with the same thread size. The "L39" indicates the filter absorbs ultraviolet (UV) light, "UV" reinforces this, and "MC" stands for "Multi-Coated," which helps reduce reflections and improve image quality. The filter's primary purpose is to protect the lens from scratches and the elements, though its UV-blocking properties also provide benefits for film photography.
Key features and specifications:
Filter Size: 67mm, which is the diameter of the lens thread it fits.
Type: UV (Ultraviolet) filter, often designated as "L39."
Coating: MC (Multi-Coated), designed to minimize reflections and glare.
Purpose:
Protection: Acts as a protective layer for the front of the lens.
