good stuff

Terrible flaring.

By freakingFlare from New Haven, CT on 3/1/2008

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

If you point this filter anywhere near a strong light source it will flare very obviously. I've tested identical shots in identical lighting with and without the filter, and the flare definitely comes from the filter. I'm returning this and getting a coated filter.
