4 out of 5 stars Better than using a UV filter, but it is thick   June 6, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have always had an issue with using UV filters since they will slightly tint your photo. These Nikon clear filters are great for lens protection and Nikon makes these with quality. I quit using UV filters and now only use clear filters for lens protection. The only disadvantage is the Nikon clear filters are thick so they will cause vignette on several wide angle lenses.


5 out of 5 stars Your F2.8 lenses deserve this   April 28, 2008

UV Filters are usually most people buy just mainly to protect the lens, so am I. I never picky about UV or NC filters, so I settled all my filters on Hoya (reason is I bought few of the Hoya special filters such as Circular Polarizer, and Star-8) and I used to love Hoya filters until a month ago.

I got myself a 2nd hand Nikkor 105mm VR Macro F2.8, the previous owner sold it to me together with the Nikon 62mm NC Filter attached. I was amazed by the clarity the Nikon NC Filter was. You can test it out by simply putting the filters on top of a piece of white paper to check the clarity. Hoya UV had a slight yellowish, else Nikon is clearly a winner.

I threw my Hoya 77mm UV and got myself this Nikon 77mm NC filter. My 17-55mm F2.8 never been so good before.



5 out of 5 stars Perfect for the nikon 12-24mm wideangle zoom   April 15, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I recently bought the Nikon 12-24mm wideangle zoom lens and bought this UV filter to protect it. It is very thin and it does not make any difference in your field of view which is what you look for with a wideangle like this. I strongly recommend UV filters to protect lenses. The other day my wife accidentaly (that's what she told me!!!) drop my Nikon D200 which had the Nikon 18-200 VR zoom lens. It was inside its bag but when I took it out to take a picture I heard a terrifying noise... broken glass. When I started to see what it was I saw the lens-cap inside the filter ring and it was so stucked that I had to unscrew the filter in order to check my lens. Fortunately the filter was the only thing broken. If that filter hadn't been there the broken thing would have been my precious lens and a heart attack would had come later.
With your eyes closed protect your lenses with UV filters and I strongly recommend this one for any 77mm filter sized lens, even a wideangle.
