The 40.5mm 98-UVATS UV Filter is one of Chiaro�s highest-rated protective UV filters with 98% light transmission. It�s ideal for photographers of all levels who demand high-quality glass and other essential features for excellent image fidelity and construction.
To achieve 98% light transmission, Chiaro uses highly-polished optical glass, multi-coating, and additional advanced elements that improve the filter�s light transmission. Resistance coating is designed to ensure that water, oil, dust, and fingerprints can be easily removed with a gentle wipe. A hard-anodized aluminum filter ring is easy to screw on and off, designed to screw on and off effortlessly, and it�s thin to prevent vignetting when used with wide-angle lenses. Side knurling helps assure that you�ll have a firm grip when attaching or removing your filter.
Image quality is what matters most at Chiaro. The company has tested and combined many features and essentials to achieve superior image quality and the highest light transmission. To help take the confusion out of selecting a filter, Chiaro prominently displays the light transmission levels so that you can choose the perfect filter for your lens and photo session.
- 98% Light Transmission
- Protecting your lens doesn't mean you have to lose optical quality. By using highly-polished optical glass and advanced coatings, Chiaro offers a 98% transmission rate, which is an excellent transmission rate for glass. And the company verifies the ratings with ISO certified lab testing.
- Resistance Coating
- The layers of advanced resistance coating on the filter are designed to allow you to easily clean your filter. Water beads up and rolls off your filter, and oil and fingerprints can come off with a gentle wipe. Dust and debris won't adhere to the filter and can be removed with a puff of air.
- Polished Optical Glass
- Glass that's polished to perfection is essential to achieve a high level of light transmission. The optical glass in this Chiaro filter is highly-polished for flatness that ensures excellent optical clarity.
- Multi-Coating
- Multi-coating enhances light transmission to the demanding level set for all Chiaro filters. It reduces unwanted internal reflections and ghosting that can compromise your images.
- UV Protection
- The filter blocks UV light and reduces the bluish cast of daylight that can affect color accuracy, especially at higher altitudes.
- Hard Anodized Aluminum Construction
- The process of hard anodizing toughens and strengthens the aluminum for a lightweight yet durable filter ring.
- Slim Design
- Measuring only 3.2mm, this filter is slim enough to use on wide-angle lenses without experiencing vignetting.
- Top and Side Knurling
- In addition to top knurling, Chiaro added side knurling that helps offer better options to grip the filter when you're attaching and removing it, or when you're stacking filters.
- Secure Attachment
- It takes two full turns to mount the filter on your lens. This feature will securely hold your Chiaro filter through the most demanding photo shoots.
- Front Threads
- The front threads on the filter allow you to stack filters by screwing them onto your Chiaro filter.

Filter Fits Properly and is an Easy Install
Style: Particulate Media
Though not made for or by Honda, this filter is inexpensive and looks like it's capable of filtering the air coming into the passenger compartment of our 2012 Honda Fit. The primary difference between this unit and the original filter supplied by Honda is that the original unit has some "ribs" that help to keep the pleats separated attached to the top of the pleats. The item I received lacks that, but it appears to me that the pleats are strong enough on their own for the intended purpose. The filter fits into the frame as it should. Replacing this filter is incredibly easy and requires no tools: you empty the glove compartment, compress it's sides inward so that the rubber stops on either side clear the dash, allowing the glove compartment to drop out an extra 4-5 inches. Then, you can see and reach the cover for the cabin air filter, which is secured by latches on each side. Remove the cover and slide out the filter and frame. Replace the air filter element, which just sits in the frame, replace the frame and cover, and compress the glove compartment sides again to put it back in place. Put your stuff back in the glove compartment and you're done. In a few minutes you've saved significant dollars over the cost of having this done in the shop. Congratulations! The engine air filter is equally easy to replace in the Fit, though for that job I prefer to use a Honda OEM part.
Edit: I thought I should add a reminder to install the filter in such a way that the air flow indicator is the same as the one that you remove, i.e. do not put it in upside down. If I remember correctly, air flows from above to below in the Honda Fit. Also, currently, the price for this item is not competitive.

Easiest to install so far
Style: HEPA
So the 2018 Honda Odyssey apparently checks the air flow and after a certain point it determines the cabin air flow is less than desirable. At least this this is what I’ve gathered after talking to my dealer. Buying a thick filter may not be better.
This was the easiest filter to install. I didn’t have to gingerly coax it In without collapsing the filter. It fit easily and I didn’t have to cut it. Pro Tip: Write the date of install in case your dealership says “well cabin air flow is blah blah blah.” Just tell them to check the date. You should get 6-12months on a filter.
My dealership wanted to charge a ridiculous amount for what is literally a 2 minute job. Decent filters will cost around $20. Thicker isn’t better. It all depends on how much crap you have in your glove box. And how much crap is in your air. It might take longer to get all the receipts, first aid kits, tick prevention kits, headlights for the Scouts that forgets theirs, oh that there’s that Leatherman and Mylar blanket is…
The job entails emptying the glove box, who’s keeps gloves in these? Press the tabs to drop the box and then Voila there is the filter. It’s really that easy. Ok pull the cover off and pull the old filter. Unless you live in a really dusty environment or have squirrels that are destined to ruin your life there shouldn’t be any real mess . Pull it out and put this in. There’s air flow arrows but even if you did it backwards the van isn’t going to explode in a ball of flame, fueled by the forgotten Cheerios under the seat.
Relax, you did it. The world still turns and you’re good to go. Now it’s time to think about the engine air filter. You can do it. It’s easy but the clips can be a pain so it’s better to grab an adult beverage before, just in case.

The attention to detail is impressive, and the performance is on par with more expensive alternatives. If you're looking for something reliable, well-made, and at a fair price point, this is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!

Works as intended but lowers airflow
Style: HEPA
I got this because of the wildfire smoke in my area. It definitely filters out smell compared to a regular filter so I'm assuming it's also filtering out larger particles in the air.
However, I've noticed that the airflow is reduced by a lot and the car is a lot warmer on the same setting I've used for years.
It's a trade off and I might just rotate filters depending on AQI and how hot it is since it takes like a minute to change it out.
I would recommend it if you live in an area that's smoky or cooler but not in places that get hot.

Fits and filters great
Style: PUREFLOW
Perfect fit and replacement for my wife's car air filter. The air seems to be a little fresher after putting this one in i believe it makes a difference to spend a little more on a quality filter.
