Spectral transmission — Hoya HMC Super UV (0)

I have never liked the yellow cast of the Hoya UV filters, and this graph shows why— compare to the B+W UV 010; observe how the Hoya filter “rounds off” the blue end of the spectrum near 400nm.

Sorry, no spectral transmission graph for the Hoya Ultra UV(0), but its characteristics are consistent with the other Hoya HMC filters.

The Hoya filters impart a yellowish cast, see this page for more.
