Comments about Tiffen Tiffen 55mm UV (Ultra Violet) Glass Filter:

A clear glass lens filter is a "must have" accessory in every photographer's bag whether your are a professional or an amateur like me. It not only protect your lens from harsh elements like sunlight, rain, and harmful dusts, but also from accidental abuse or misuse causing nicks and scratches. A clear glass UV lens filter is the most inexpensive of all the necessary camera accessories. Get one for every lens in your bag and don't leave home without it.
