 Easier to Clean and Replace Than Your Front Element May 10, 2006
29 out of 30 found this review helpful
I never take my UV filter off of my lens unless I am going to immediately put on a different filter. There are basically two camps out there, those that feel you should always use a UV filter to protect your lens from dirt and scratches and those that feel it is a waste of time and only degrades your image. Well, I tried going without one for awhile and then dirt started to build up on the front element of my very expense lens. And although you can clean the front element of a lens, I feel much, much safer wiping my comparatively cheap UV filter time and time again rather than chancing any actual lens damage. I think for the nearly unquantifiable loss in image quality you may suffer by having a UV filter on, it is well worth the extra piece of mind it gives me.
 Does what you want February 21, 2006

I'm sure there are those who'd wax philosophical over the subject of filters and how one brand is "much better" than another, but for my Canon EF-S 10-22mm on a 20D, I figure Canon would be fairly good at making a filter that they're willing to have branded "Canon." It fits fine, doesn't interfere with the lens hood, looks clear, seems to attenuate that nasty ultra-violet part of the light spectrum and perhaps best of all, protects the front element. What more would one want?
 Vignetting Problem December 19, 2005
46 out of 59 found this review helpful
I bought this filter because it looked like a good value for the money. I use it on my Canon 17-40 F4 L lense. It's worked well until a recent set of photos that I did at Knott's Berry Farm.
I took several shots with the sun at 90 degrees to my left at around 1:00PM and got significant vignetting on multiple shots.
I'm going to have to bite the bullet and spring for a multi-coated filter.
Good choice for wide angle lenses September 7, 2005

This is a good, affordable UV filter for protecting your expensive lenses. I leave it on my lens all the time. This particular filter (L-39 Sharp Cut) is especially good for wide angle lenses (< 24mm focal length), because of its ultrathin profile, which prevents vignetting. I have used regular filters on wide angle lenses, with very bad results. Although this filter is NOT multi-coated, I have not found it to be a big deal in the pictures I've taken. Multi-coated UV filters can cost 2x or 3x the price of this one, which I don't think is worthwhile. All in all, I recommend this filter for Canon or non-Canon lenses.
