Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

For the price, these are a great way to get your hands on some of the basic filters that every photog should have. I haven't done any sort of side-by-side comparison with the more expensive versions of these from Tiffen or other vendors but these seem good for the money.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

Tiffen filters have always been my choice when I buy equipment. The idea of having three filters in one packet is ideal.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

The filters themselves work great. The package that holds them is a little bulky because the filters are laid out in a 2x2 patter that folds in half. They could not really make it any smaller based on the 77mm filter diameter, but it ended up being a bit bigger than expected. Its soft sided just a comment.

Excellent product for UV protection and all around lens protection.

Good set of filters that came as bundle for the purchase of a lens.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

This came with a lens and it works well for protection. They are uncoated and thus create ghost images at night. So if you are looking for basic protection these will work. If you are looking for EX or L series coatings then look elsewhere.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

This kit came free with the purchase of the lens. While I haven't used Tiffen recently, (been using Hoya with occasional B & W), I was surprised with the quality. Since I am an organization freak, I love the four place case which allows the addition of a ND filter. This gives me all the filters I normally use in convenient package. I haven't had any flare issues in my images caused by the filters. Overall I have been impressed.

While photographers debate use or not to use filters for lens protection, I'm still one that uses a UV to protect the glass - especially for outdoor shoots. Reasonable cost, the set of 3 lens filters came with a nice quality case. Construction of the filters appears to be of good quality, and so far the performance has been what I expected.

I am just learning to use various filters. It was a bargan getting these filters in a promotion package.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

These filters are a valuable part of your camera bag. The kit included multiple filters for a multitude of uses. They are constructed well and stay firmly on the front of my lenses.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

I use the UV filter to protect my lens in low light. Otherwise, for nature photography, I almost always use the polarizing filter. I cannot duplicate the effect with Photoshop, although others probably can. I prefer to capture the photo as I want it in the first instance, rather than rely on Photoshop. The reduced glare, improved saturation, and increased contrast in the sky are more than worth the modest price of this polarizing filter.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

I was going to buy a UV filter with my new Canon lens. The salesperson recommended the three pack. Since I also needed a new polarizer I bought the set. I have used Tiffen filters for over 50 years and have never had a problem with them.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

I really just needed the polarized lens but it came with a UV and another lens. It also came in its own case. It was less expensive then when I just bought the UV lens separate locally here.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

I have Tiffen filters on about 15 of my Canon lenses and I really like them. The 77 mm filter for my 24-105 L IS lens works perfectly and I am very happy with it.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

Nice filter set- compact, high quality, and seem to be the most commonly used filters for us. The circular polarizing filter is great!

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

This set worked great. I recently got two new lenses: a 67 mm and a 77mm. The rep on the phone suggested getting the bigger polarized filter and an adapter so it could work for the 67mm. This was very helpful and saved me from buying two different sized polazied filters.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

This kit is a great value. I have used it over a year and after seeing a bad review here, I decided that these filters should be appreciated a lot more then what others may think. Everybody needs UV, and Polar is a must. The warm affect filter is just nice gift over all, not something needed in the digital world, but good for someone who uses slides or negatives. Kit comes with a useful and nice filter holder. UV filter does what is supposed to. Polarizer is good comparable to ex. a Hoya polarizer, maybe thinner too. Although built differently, it is easier to rotate a tiffen than a Hoya polar filter.
Recently I bought B+W MRC kassermann coated polarizer which is almost 3 times more expensive, it does a super job, but you have to pay the price. Since that I haven't used the tiffen that much but kept it as a backup. It is good filter, not consistent everywhere in throughout the picture if set on maximum, but acceptable.
Buy it you will not regret it.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

A great kit for the price. I use it almost always in my photo trips. The glasses are pretty good quality. The warming filter does a nice job in dull gloomy weather. I use this kit mostly for nature photography. Wish there was a ND filter too in the kit.Best regards[@[@]

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

This set came highly recommended by the sales staff at adorama after I found out you get what you pay for in lens filters.I was excited when they came and the 1st thing I did was to hold them to a light and I was shocked at what I saw... fingerprints!! enough to find out who they were If I really wanted too :) and on top of that they were completely dirty scratched and pitted unreal for the optics community .1st off they were not wrapped or protected in any way secondly there are little sharp silica packs (most likely culprit for scratches) in there I returned them[...] I was livid because I had shoots planned around the 1st delivery and had to set it back and when they came back bad again My window of opportunity had passed . They are made in NY and I was glad to buy American but the total lack of qa here is bad and I'll never buy tiffen again they came with high endorsements but I'll never put faith in them again

Prior to this purchase I had been using a Hoya UV filter for lens protection but it quickly developed spots that could not be removed. The Tiffen UV filter in this set has not had this problem.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

These lenses are great, although one of them happens to have a thread that is uneven and causes it to not screw onto the lense as well. Service was excellent also.

I bought it for the UV and pol. but have great fun whit the 812.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

Tiffen filters are my filters of choice,I've tried others that were more costly, but they didn't do a better job, so in my book Tiffen is the best.

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

Just got the set of filters and they exceeded my expectations for the price. Nice 10 year warranty and case.

Good product, good value

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit:

The filters mount well onto my new Canon F2.8 70-200L lens. The polarizing filter is easy to rotate and stays in position under the lens hood. The UV filter will remain on the lens for protection. The polarizing filter is a must for landscape phototgraphy. I may occassionally use the warming filter.
