Comments about Hoya Hoya 77mm DMC PRO1 Digital Multi-Coated UV (Ultra Violet) Filter.:

I dropped my D7000 with a Nikon 10-24mm lens. It landed right on the corner of the lens. It was scary but the filter took all of the damage. I was surprised it saved the lens even with the thin design. Buying another one!

This is such a great filter. It has been on my Canon 24-105 mm L lens since day one and it gives great protection without adding any unwanted aberations. A tad pricey, but worth every penny.

Comments about Hoya Hoya 77mm DMC PRO1 Digital Multi-Coated UV (Ultra Violet) Filter.:

Used on my Tokina 11-16 with a D300. It does not interfere with the lens hood nor the lens cap. For comparison, the mounted filter is thinner than the lens cap. Even when shooting at 11 mm I can't see any artifacts caused by the filter. I shoot mostly outdoors above 9000 feet, and without a UV filter the sky can appear washed out which is tough to post process when there are clouds. This filter really brings back the blue that I see when composing the image.

Comments about Hoya Hoya 77mm DMC PRO1 Digital Multi-Coated UV (Ultra Violet) Filter.:

I have had B+W UV filters mounted on my other Canon L lenses. For my recent lens purchases I decided to try out Hoya products, having read positive reviews and comparing prices between Hoya and B+W. From what I have gathered, B+W multicoated filters pricing has taken a stratopheric jump over the past 2 years. I am not a pro by any standard but photography has been my obsession for the past 25 years. Thus I care deeply about producing quality images out of my Canon L lenses. So far I have not detect any visual difference between those taken with B+W or Hoya filters mounted on the lenses. For the price and performance, I do not think you can go wrong.

Comments about Hoya Hoya 77mm DMC PRO1 Digital Multi-Coated UV (Ultra Violet) Filter.:

I have six lenses of the same filter size and and have one on each lens. The only reason I take one off is to use a polarizer. They have defended the front element of a couple of lenses from moisture and small particles and have been reasonably easy to clean. No ghosting.

Comments about Hoya Hoya 77mm DMC PRO1 Digital Multi-Coated UV (Ultra Violet) Filter.:

I purchased this filter for a Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM Zoom Lens. I wanted a filter that would not deter from the lens optics in any way (vignetting, flaring, ghosting and etc.). The Hoya PRO UV filter fits the requirement perfectly.
