Cyclop H3-T1 1.5 85mm no coating

I received this Cyclop and it has absolutely no markings.
I read that it has yellow coating but this one seems to have no coating at all.



I'm wondering which filter I should use to replace the lack of coating.
In clear light, ghost reflections are important and the whites glow very much.



Under indirect light, it's quite good :


Thanks in advance for your advice. Smile

Could you post some front reflections?

What about single coated lenses like my Zuiko?
Can a filter reduce the amount of glow from the whites?

Try to use a MC (and- or ghostless) UV- or Skylight Filter with a step down filter adapter to only cover your sensor (that may also imrove flaring and reduces the cost for the filter)

Interesting solution. Thank you very much ForenSeil.

Seems yellow enough to me. I seriously doubt you have different glass. Coating can be damaged (removed) but only on specific internal element. Use hood (that is a must) and take photos only after 5 p.m. Wink.

I have a metal 67mm hood and a Hoya MC UV(0) filter !
It seems I have the tools to improve it. Very Happy

I also have a 67mm circular polarizer.
