It's like not having anything on at all. But isn't that the point. It is there to take the abuse if an accidental bump to the lens happens. I think it is a wonderful investment to protect a $1700 lens.
UV filter a problem July 14, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Overall I like these filters. I use many Tiffen filters without any issues, but there is one problem with the UV filter. I use these on a Sigma 10-20 mm wide angle zoom lens. Because of the wide angle, the glass protrudes outward from the lens in a bubble. The UV filter, when screwed on actually touches the glass of the lens. The other two filters are recessed enough that they don't touch. Just a warning for folks with wide angle zooms, otherwise a great product. The CP filter is excellent! It really punches up the color and reduces glare on water and glass.
Why do I always try for value over quality? June 28, 2008 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
I returned the filter because it was used, old (ancient packaging) and had scratches and fingerprints on it. It was advertised as new. All this is a seller thing, and not the filter's fault.
The filter, though, was very weak. That is, I doubt it would take my glass down 1/2 stop-seriously. I also noticed (without mounting it) that when used on an LCD monitor for testing, it was very weak at rejecting light at 90 degrees. That is to say, the effect was very weak. In addition, the filter's outer glass just spun freely. How would I fix that?
I feel that my best glass (70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM) deserves to look through something phenomenal, so I traded up to the:
Heliopan 77mm Circular Polarizer Lens Filter
Baddest piece of glass I could find! Brass rings instead of the aluminum ones in Tiffen and Hoya, and a calibrated wheel with markings make this the choice.
There comes a time when checap is just too expensive. I want to make my L glass better, so why would I put layered/laminated glass over it?
If you have a cheap lens (at 77mm? OK, whatever!), then this might really be a value. On the other hand, if you know what a circular polarizer even IS, you probably should be buying the best.
