 Good value for average performance June 6, 2008
With these filters you pretty much get what you pay for. They have good solid construction, and offer great protection for the lens. Threaded in front and hold caps pretty well too, which is a plus. But, once you start becoming more demanding of quality and move into more "serious" direction, the shortcomings would become more and more evident and very hard to compromise on. My main issue with these is glare they produce in extreme lighting conditions (night photography or very bright light). Some vignetting (although not terrible) is also introduced. For these reasons I never stack them either.
I feel that for kit lenses and less expensive ones they do an excellent job hence the 5 star rating with price-benefit ratio in mind. However, if you're using professional glass or feel that photography is something that you will be sticking to for a while consider doing a bit of research before committing to these.
Always Great Filters May 8, 2008

I've never expereinced a issue with the Tiffen filters.
I have this one on a Sigma 10 - 20mm with no vignetting.

I was in LA and went to Simon's camera I wanted to buy a new Canon lens for my Canon 5D. Simon, the owner saw that I had this Tiffen 77mm filter on my camera and commented, that "you've got great glass there (the lens), but the UV filter you are using is not so good." He did a side by side comparison of the Tiffen next to the Hoya Pro1 Digital filter. It was really night and day. The reflection and glare & distoration were noticeable. I did replace the Tiffen with the Hoya ($79.99) and don't regret it. The Tiffen is fine, if you are on a budget, but if you want great results, don't skimp.

Used with a Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM Lens for Canon DSLR Cameras, and works pretty well. Best conditions would likely be early morning or early evening as afternoon sunshine, even with clouds, is too much light for this filter to lessen.
