No issues that have diminished image quality. Factory case is made of hard plastic that can crack easier then pliable type cases. Cheap insurance for my lenses.

I purchased this filter when the equivalent Nikon filter was sold out. I've been very pleased with its price and performance.

Currently using it to protect the kit lens of a Canon EOS 5D MkII. Works very well. I also had this filter on a SONY DSC-R1 which I dropped onto concrete from about 4 feet high. The Hoya protective filter shattered, but the SONY lens underneath was OK.

It is very clear, and although I keep getting told not to stack filters, if you are in a hurry, it does take another filter ontop of it very well in terms of the threads.

I've tried the cheaper brands and the fit and finish just don't stand up to Hoya. I have Hoya on all my L series Canon lenses.

Works like a charm on my Nikkor 70-200 f/2.8. Very good alternate to Nikon NC-series filters. I'll be considering more Hoya in the future.

I use these to protect all my lenses. Does not affect image quality one bit.

One of the best filter I have seen, love the optics, very thin mount, very clear glass, multi-coating, Almite black frame, knurling frame. The finish on these babies is excellent, Can't say enough about them as I bought two for my 70-200mm lens and the new 16-35mm II series glass. Save you money and buy these instead of the 120 plus dollar apiece B&W MRC UV filters unless you just want to spend the money. [$] they are a steal compared to the other great filters.

Usually when I order something online where I don't get to hold it and inspect it before buying it, it usually turns out to be a disappointment once it arrives in the mail but not this one. I was very happy once I pulled it from it's package and saw the quality. Just touching it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Top notch build like the slim design (16mm wide full frame) which will still hold a lens cap, the finish which they call the black almite frame, awesome, and the MC coating which can clearly be seen when held next to a non-multi coated filter. I bought two, one for my 70-200mm and my 16-35mm II and it cost me [$] total. Originally I was looking at the B&W UV-multi coated thin mount filter and one regular UV-MC filter for general lens protection but I would have spent 296 dollars to do it. That’s a lot of money for general purpose filters and I'm not wealthy. The glass looks to be exceptionally clear where It's almost like its not there. Highly recommend. I will still end up going with the B+W 82mm MRC Slim Circular Polarizer Filter in the future as Hoya HMC coating is hard to clean so there you go.

Good quality filter that does not effect the picture quality. A good way to protect your lenses.

Its hard to review a product like this-I hope I never need it. After investing serious cash in glass, I picked up two of these filters as insurance against damage to the front element. They have solid construction, metal fitting, and installation was easy.
