Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Film, as well as video, often exhibits a greater sensitivity to what is to us invisible, ultraviolet light. This is most often outdoors, especially at high altitudes, where the UV-absorbing atmosphere is thinner; and over long distances, such as marine scenes. It can show up as a bluish color cast with color film, or it can cause a low-contrast haze that diminishes details, especially when viewing far-away objects, in either color or black-and-white. Ultraviolet filters absorb UV light generally without affecting light in the visible region. It is important to distinguish between UV-generated haze and that of air-borne particles, such as smog. The latter is made up of opaque matter that absorbs visible light as well as UV, and will not be appreciably removed by a UV filter.The UV Protector shields lens from dust, moisture, scratches, and breakage.

4 out of 5 stars Tiffen filters   November 11, 2008
Tiffen has long been a name known for quality filters. Of the lower-priced filters, they are probably the best.


5 out of 5 stars MUST HAVE for Photographers!   October 15, 2008
Tiffen filters are truely quality. Use a filter of lesser quality and compare it to any Tiffen filter. Do this and THEN you will understand.
The sets with case are a great way to cover the basics in your lens protection and create new ideas for the creative type!
Tiffen filters are a MUST HAVE!



1 out of 5 stars Poor Quality   October 9, 2008
This filter arrived with the glass lens loose and unstable in the mount. Poor quality control in manufacture, this was not a shipping defect. Had to be returned.


5 out of 5 stars Big deal on quality brand filter   September 21, 2008
I purchased this filter not only as the "protector" to my lens but for its quality and photographics characteristics. I could not believe the low price, shipping included deal that I got.


1 out of 5 stars wrong information   September 6, 2008
I bought this because Amazon suggested together with my Xacti 1000, however it was the wrong size which needs an adaptor plus another lens cap. So I had to return it and buy a correct one.

I understand it was an automated system that Amazon provides according to the orders, but consumers must be very careful as well. I was in a rush and try to be hustle free.
