The Duet 3Peak UV + CPL Filter Kit - Open Box, 43mm
We love this kit because it keeps two of our favorite Gobe 3Peak (▲▲▲) camera filters in a compact, easy to access roll designed to save space, and we’re always all about the minimal setup. The UV filter is ideal for cutting out haze and sharpening your image while protecting your lens. The CPL filter blocks diffused light or sunlight that has been directly reflected toward your lens. Then when you rotate the CPL you can achieve settings that give you awesome color saturation and contrast. Both are made with Japanese optical glass and finished with 16 layers of Gobe’s Multi Resistant Coating which makes the filter scratch resistant and repels water and grease. Gobe as a company has a great mission. As photographers inspired by nature, they want to give back, so for every product sold they plant 5 trees in areas devastated by deforestation.
Our Review
Urth Duet 3Peak UV + CPL Kit — two pro-grade filters, one client-ready case
The gist: A professionally organized UV and CPL filter kit that delivers measurable image improvements on location shoots — without the bulk or cost of buying pro filters separately.
- Japanese optical glass, 16-layer MRC coating: Meets professional optical standards while resisting the grime, fingerprints, and moisture that accumulate during a full shoot day.
- CPL for un-fakeable corrections: Eliminates reflections from glass, water, and glossy surfaces in product or commercial photography — an effect that post-processing cannot replicate.
- UV filter for location lens care: Protects your front glass on outdoor corporate, event, or portrait shoots without impacting sharpness or color rendition.
- Compact roll case for professional organization: Both filters stored neatly in one case — reduces fumbling during client shoots and keeps your kit professional-looking.
According to Micro Four Nerds’ Urth filter review, the CPL ranks among the top performers tested, with “superb build quality and amazing results” that justify its place in a working photographer’s bag.
Best for: Freelance photographers and content creators who shoot outdoors regularly and want a reliable UV + CPL pair without paying for top-tier glass separately. Skip it if: your work is exclusively studio-based — a CPL has little use in controlled artificial light. Runs ~$50–$90 depending on size — check the current price before buying.
