High Quality pays
Yes, it does cost more. But, the mounting ring is made from brass and does not distort. The threads are machined well for easy mounting. If you have purchased high-quality lenses, why use a filter that degrades the image quality. I use this filter on my Nikon 16-35 lens and get excellent results. The slim mount works well and there is no vignetting.

Perfect compliment to L series glass
B+W filters may be more expensive than others around but the quality is reflected in that price. Why would you spend thousands on a lens and then not put the best filter in front of it. Great piece of kit.

Somewhat disappointed.
I am disappointed that my Canon lens cap will not fit this filter. Had I known that prior to the purchase I would not have bought this filter.

I will consistantly buy this brand.
My primary use of the filter is lens protection. When you thread the filter onto your lens you start seeing the quality. It threads on with ease. With the build quality of this filter I'm sure my lens is protected.

b+w the best filters
B+w uses brass rings and optic quality glass a major upgrade from all but a couple of other manufacturers

Essential equipment
this filter was purchased as a" stay on all the time" filter for my 17-35mm 2.8 zoom lens. It does exactly what it's supposed to-removes haze and protects the front lens element. It is coated and works really well.

Great quality whenever you see B+W
The slim version works great on my 24-70G. I chose this one in stead of the normal B+W because the 24mm side. The only point is that nikon camera cap doesn't fit on this filter. However a B+W cap comes with this filter. It is a little bit loose and not that stable to cover the filter. But most of the time, it works.

Very good initial results
So far the results are very good based on the limited number of photographs. Not sure that I would buy slim version next time since it requires custom lens cap (suppplied with the filter). A standard size filter accommodates Canon lens cap which I would prefer, but this is insignificant in the overall assessment.

You get what you pay for
I started buying B&W filters after literally having a less expensive brand fall off my camera in the middle of the street while traveling in Boston. I had tried to save a little money and found it wasn't worth it. These filters hold securely to the lens even though they are thin and do not fall apart. If you have a good lens, it's worth protecting it and not degrading the optics. When I am shooting, I don't put the lens cap back on until I am finished, sometimes not till the end of the day.
