Beyond Vision, into Art:Kenko Filters TransformingPhotography & Videography

We believe that taking photos and videos is not only "just recording", but that there is great value in the way they are expressed and enjoyed.

We would like to create a future in which more and more people can enjoy and feel a sense of fulfillment through the experience of photography. For such a future, we create high quality optical filters that are the culmination of over 60 years of optical design know-how. They add rich expressiveness to photography and imaging and expand creative possibilities.

Our filters are supported by many users thanks to thequality and reliable after sales support system that wehave been committed to since our establishment.

Handcrafted Excellence: Artistry Without Mechanization

In line with the value of "pursuing quality over quantity" that we have held to since our founding in 1957, many of
our filter manufacturing processes are performed by hand rather than being left completely to machines. In
optical filters, which require precise adjustment, we believe it is important to produce each filter carefully and
without seeking efficiency.

Legacy in Craftsmanship:A Timeless Generational Heritage

During the glass polishing process, which is at the heart of lens filter creation we adjust the thickness and flatness of the glass on the order of microns. Our craftsmen and women slowly and meticulously polish the glass to achieve the most precise adjustments.

This process is the legacy of the dedication, conviction, and technical know how of successive generations of engineers who have built the foundation of Kenko Filters since its inception.

Timeless Quality: Crafting Products for Lifelong Reliability

We make a conscious effort to manufacture products that users can use with peace of mind for a long time. When commercializing a new filter, the filter development team conducts field tests and exchanges opinions. Then multiple prototypes are repeated created until all members are satisfied with the filter. We are committed to creating filters that customers can use with confidence.
