It looks crystal clear, and I can't see any degradation in sharpness of the images. There might be a little extra flare in night street shots, but I accept that because I don't want to use the hood. I don't see any vignetting at the wide end of the 24-70 zoom. It holds the lens cap well. I love the big lugs; they make is so easy to unscrew.

I always love Breakthrough but make sure you get the X2 or higher.

The best filter I have ever owned. Highest quality construction with a very shallow metal ring. You should be able to stack two filters without any worry of vignetting. This filter comes with an engraved serial number that is used to register the 25 year warranty on the Breakthrough Photography website. The metal ring has a textured grip. I'll only be using Breakthrough Filters from now on. They have set the mark very high.

I've bought a number of these for various lenses. The quality is consistent and these are the best clear filters I've bought. I find these much more convenient to clean than cleaning the front lens element. Much lighter than B+W brass filters, and the ridges really help in getting them off (all filters bind if left on the lens regularly). I haven't noticed much in the way of extra flares/ghosts, but there definitely is tiny bit more flare shooting into the sun. I may skip this for a fast wide angle I just acquired.

I have purchased countless Hoya and B+W filters over the years but now regard Breakthrough Photography filters as the best value for quality filter solutions.

Got this to put on an expensive 85mm lens. I generally use a UV filter for general protection, but it still needs to be optically clear with minimal loss. This is my 3rd Breakthrough filter and all are excellent. It comes well protected in a square filter case that doesn't allow the filter to rattle around when stored. Unlike other filters I've bought in the past, my Breakthrough filters have always been clean and dust free out of the box. The frame is brass with a black finish; raised edging allows a positive grip even with thin gloves on. It threads on and off easily. Each filter has a laser-engraved serial # that, when registered, gets you a 25 year warranty; a good indication that they stand behind their product. I've also purchased other Breakthrough products that are performing well. Well worth it despite the price, especially for lenses that will be used a lot.

I think Breakthrough is my new favorite filter brand. There is nothing wrong with my old standby filters like Hoya and B+W, but these filters have such a great feel of quality and the ribbed edge is also a nice plus.

I did some research to try to find a replacement for my Hoya UV filter that had developed a smudge. The Breakthrough products seemed to be suggested so I popped and bought one. It has a very nice and thin frame and so far it's very clear and the lens cap fits perfectly.

Much better design than my older B+W filters! Easy grip even though thin design. Very happy with purchase of this and a Breakthrough Circular Polarizer, too!

I have heard about the Breakthrough filters for the past year. It appears to live up to the reputation. Beautiful build quality, extremely thin, with good finger friction grooves.

Very good product and packaging. Long warranty provided. Fit nicely.
If you're a professional photographer seeking the pinnacle of UV filters, the 62mm X2 UV Traction Filter is your perfect match. This high-performance filter, crafted with superior AGC glass from Japan, is designed to enhance your photography experience by delivering stunningly sharp and vivid images.
The X2 UV Traction Filter boasts some of the world's highest resolving optical glass - AGC glass, made in Japan. This ensures that your images are captured with the utmost clarity and detail. The state-of-the-art 8-Layer Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC8) process hardens both optical surfaces, increases light transmission, reduces reflections, and achieves true color neutrality while maximizing contrast fidelity.
The X2's MRC coatings are structurally harder than the glass itself, enhancing the durability of the optical surfaces by increasing scratch resistance. This feature makes the X2 UV Traction Filter a reliable choice for photographers who demand longevity and resilience from their equipment.
The X2 Traction frame, precisely engineered by Breakthrough Photography, redefines form and function. It's designed for easy, secure attachment and removal, ensuring that you can switch filters quickly and efficiently. Each X2 filter is CNC machined with very narrow and precise tolerances, a testament to Breakthrough's commitment to superior craftsmanship.
The X2's nanotec Nano Coating layer repels dirt, water, and other elements, making it easier and quicker than ever to clean. This feature ensures that your filter remains in optimal condition, ready to capture the perfect shot at a moment's notice.
The X2's ultra-slim 3.5mm double-threaded Traction Frame design eliminates vignetting on wide-angle full-frame setups. This super thin frame also reduces light falloff, ensuring that your images are evenly lit from edge to edge.
The X2's Traction Frame is laser engraved with a unique serial number, providing a personalized support experience and allowing Breakthrough to verify the authenticity of your filter. This feature gives you the peace of mind that you're using a genuine Breakthrough product.
The X2 UV Traction Filter is also weather-sealed for enhanced durability. This feature ensures that your lens maintains its out-of-box optical performance for as long as possible, making the X2 an essential addition to your photography gear if you're using Canon, Nikon, or Sony lenses.
In summary, the 62mm X2 UV Traction Filter is a high-quality, durable, and performance-enhancing tool that every professional photographer should consider adding to their kit.
