It's round!
December 28, 2008
OK, It's a UV filter. I use it mainly as a piece of "clear" glass to protect the front element of a lens. What can you say about this one? It is round. The mounting is solid and a nice black color with legible lettering. The threads are accurately cut and it easiy screws in and out without getting stuck or coming loose. The middle part is transparent so you can take pictures through it. It looks to be of a uniform density, with neither darker nor lighter areas. All in all, it is everything anyone could ever want in a UV filter. The single negative thing I saw was that it is inexpensive. If you get a charge of telling everyone how expensive your camera and ancillary equipment are, forget this filter.
Does what was expected of it

( Tiffen 67mm UV Protection Filter ) I knew it would cause reflection of lit-up areas of my picture composition and thats what its doing so i cannot blame it. I ordered another better filter for quite an expensive lens of mine alongside this one which was multicoated. From this filter you should only expect dust protection and that's it. That's enough for its cost
If you own 18-105mm VR nikon, Do not buy it !!!!!

One of my friends brought it from here for a new 18-105mm vr nikkor (from D90 kit). After attached it to the lens, you will see a small spot at the middle. He showed it to me for finding the reason. I said Oh god remove it immediately.
But it is too late. The glass of the filter hit the glass of the lens. The filter was returned, but the spot is still on the lens forever. - -"
Nice accompaniment for my 70-200L IS

What can I say? This is a nice and inexpensive accompaniment for my L lens. It was nice to have them both delivered at the same time and start shooting right away and not run off to camera store to buy UV filter.
Nice feature for Amazon to bring the accessories to your attention at check out time!
