With wide-angle lenses, this causes problems: the transmission shifts towards the edges of the image, and color blotches appear. The Clear Sky filter is constructed differently, which is why it works with wide-angle and even ultra-wide-angle lenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The filter dims the light from streetlights, making the night sky darker and bringing out the structure of the Milky Way better.
