Tiffen 82UVP Slim 82mm UV Protection Filter for Camera Lens, Clear Optical Glass, Impact Resistant

I’ve used Tiffin filters for years. Excellent quality.

I get those to protect my lenses in most cases, so this is just a great, affordable and good quality clear filter that I rather change, clean, then constantly worry about scratching my lens at any time. The picture quality doesn't change and I like to have that extra layer of protection.

This was an accessory for a 16-35mm F/2.8L Canon lens that I purchased (separately). The filter works well during the day in bright light and otherwise conditions where the particular wavelength of blue-green light is not present.. When in the dark - whether setting it up for long exposures of the night sky or for birthday pictures with the candles lit up - I still have to remove the filter to avoid ghosting. However, at this price point, I don't expect the filter to handle this and it's kind of understood that I need to do this. Why buy this ? I travel a lot - with my lenses and in my experience, having an extra layer of glass over the lens in itself makes it easier to clean and one less thing to bother when considering minor spills (or people trying to check out your lenses) . When I do need that clarity, I take the lens filter off, take a picture and back on goes the filter after it's temporary housing in my back pocket. I've had previous lenses banged up (18-55 kit lenses .. in the infancy of the art) and another lens with milk shake on it (lens face down on a McD's table + clumsy skier friend = Milk shake accident ) where a UV filter has resulted in lesser pain and loss. So I'd recommend this product if you know when to take it off and when to keep it on. It does it's job and let's you do yours. [EDIT 03/07/2012] The filter did it's job when my lens skid off a bench onto a hardwood floor. It was inside it's leather cover but it was still a hard drop. The filter took the impact and shattered keeping the lens safe. I ordered another one and is on it's way. Please note : the filter does have ghosting issues and that's true with all but the most expensive filters. The filters I use are for lens protection - both in case of accidents as well as to protect the glass from everyday grime and dust. When I'm shooting low-light, I take off the filter and put on the lens hood - works like a charm !

A friend told me to always have a protective filter on my lens, and I'm grateful for the advice. Not two days after I received these and put one on my lens, my dog grabbed my bag and flung it around (or at least I assume that's what he did with it). The filter shattered but my lens was 💯. Needless to say I'll keep a supply on hand!

Good

Fits smoothly with no noticeable color shift.

Muy bueno tal cual lo que describieron

Started coming apart a few weeks after I bought it. A ring that keeps the glass seated, won’t stay in place. Was good and cheap enough that I’ll order a replacement, but next time may look at other options.

Lens cap still attaches with filter on and filter is solid and doesn’t seem to degrade image quality.

Tiffen is a good filter maker that is why I decided to buy this item. Threads are fitting and a solid filter.

Great protect for my camera lens.

The product arrived exactly as ordered and was of good quality. This is a lifesaver for anyone who wants to protect their valuable lenses. I recommend it be used on every lens. Would be easy to replace an inexpensive filter/protector rather than the entire lens.
