Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Wide Angle Filter Kit:

I got this set to go along with my tokina 12-24, for my canon 7D. I usally am a little leary of kit stuff and reviews of filters all all over the map. [...]ANYWAY I tried and tried to find fault with these filters and after a 6 day trip to the eastern serrias and yosmite shoting all sorts of stuff, ie waterfalls, rivers, wide angle vistas ,etc. I got top results.I,m very happy with this set.

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Wide Angle Filter Kit:

Indeed, no vignetting due to filter, but so thin, there is no way a lens cap that would normally fit to a thread can hold. Makes these filters very impractical. [...]

Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 77mm Wide Angle Filter Kit:

This is a set with fair optics. My preference, after purchasing this set, is to spend a little more to get better and more consistent results. The lens protection is the only truly satisfactory part of the set. The circular polorizer, which I use quite frequently, is just average or even a little inferior. The results around the edges in my 11 mm to 13 mm shots shows distortion.
