Perfect

I exclusively use Breakthrough filters. They are always perfect. They are machined perfectly, easy to thread on and off. Serialized with a warrantee!

For my Sony 70-200mm f2.8 GM

I haven?t had a chance to shoot with the UV lens cover over my lens yet, but I will soon and I?m just excited to have some protection over my pricey lens, so we?ll worth it! The UV lens threading was smooth going over the lens and the grip makes it easy to give a bit of tightness to it and make sure it?s really on there, so as not to fall off. It was super easy to clean & I?m excited to see what it?s like out in the elements soon. Can?t wait to test it out!

Looks Great, works great!

Looks Great, works great! No vignetting, easy to mount and uninstall, and regardless of now obviously baseless claims works great with Canon lens hoods as well. The brass and knurling very effectively prevents the filter from getting stuck. Will be replacing all my UV, CPL, and ND filters with these in the future, and have already made a good dent.

I really enjoy the lens. I don't use lens hoods as I like sun flairs. And this keeps my lens safe.

It looks cool and has a nice grip. Doesn't effect image at all. Much easier to clean then the curved front glass on the lens.

Great filters!

I use Breakthrough Photography filters for all my lenses. They're made with the best glass available and the large grippy edges on the filter makes it easier to get them on and off without worrying about them getting stuck. They are definitely comparable to any filter available.

X4 UV filter

I used to use b&w but now I prefer breakthrough, especially for ND filters. Breakthrough is a good filter and the texture makes it easier put on/take off especially if stacked with another filter.

High Quality

I swore I would never put another piece of glass in front of my lens just because I have tried so many filters. This one convinced me I can find a good filter with suffering perceived image quality loss. Nice Bought this for my Sony 24-105 Full frame now I want one for my 18-105 crop lens. Sorry I don't have sample photos available right now.

Great filter!

I usually don't like to put any UV filters on my lens being afraid of degrading my images. But I've changed my mind recently as I don't to damage my expensive lenses, especially long zoom lenses. I started getting the Breakthrough filters and very happy with the quality of the filters and the images. I bought the larger one for my long telephoto zoom lens.

Love this filter!

I recently switched from B&W filters (which are still super quality) to these Breakthrough filters. I have two of these great UV filters and also a polarizer, all from Breakthrough. Besides the phenominal quality, the "bumps" on the outside of the rings allow me to easily switch at will without the need for a filter wrench. They also do not interfere with the lens hood.

This filter is a solid purchase. Great construction and the clarity of the glass is superior. I have a number of filters from this company and all are superb. Don't buy cheap.

No colorcast at all with this filter, and it's very easy to put on and take off with the traction system . Highly recommended!

incredibly clear glass

Even though this is just a thin piece of glass the grip on it feels great and is easy to hold on to if you need to remove. The casing is thin to keep a vignetting low when stacking circular filters. With how low the profile is and how clear the glass is I need to periodically double take to see if it's really still there. it's not that it comes off but rather that the quality on the glass is good. I haven't been able to see a difference in color in images with and without the filter. Since this is supposed to be clear I'm thrilled and when needed know which one to get.

Best filter I bought so far

I believed all the great reviews. I like this filter better than my B+W, Hoya and other filters. I put it on a 28-135 zoom and that zoom stopped capturing black corners on the digital photos. I never had that corner problem with my Canon 24-70, 14 mm or other Canon lenses.

I use Breakthrough Photography filters for all my lenses. They're made with the best glass available and the large grippy edges on the filter makes it easier to get them on and off without worrying about them getting stuck. They are definitely comparable to any filter available.

Make your photography stand out with the unparalleled clarity of the 62mm X4 UV Filter, renowned as the world's sharpest protection filter. Designed by Breakthrough Photography, this filter is engineered to meet the rigorous standards of professional outdoor photographers, ensuring that every shot captures the true essence of your vision.

Crafted with the critically acclaimed SCHOTT Ultrawhite B270 optical glass from Germany, the X4 UV Filter boasts an exceptional level of optical purity. This high-quality glass is complemented by a state-of-the-art multi-resistant coating featuring 16 layers (MRC16), which not only enhances light transmission to an impressive 99.4% but also fortifies the filter with a protective layer that surpasses the hardness of the glass itself.

Innovation doesn't stop there; the X4 UV Filter incorporates Breakthrough Photography's advanced nanotec Nano Coating on both sides. This cutting-edge technology effectively repels dirt, water, and other elements by causing them to bead up rather than absorb. The result is a filter that remains cleaner for longer periods and can be maintained with unprecedented ease and speed.

Understanding the challenges faced by photographers in the field, Breakthrough Photography has revolutionized the design of the X4 UV Filter. The filter's ultra-slim, double-threaded 3.2mm Traction Frame is meticulously machined from brass, offering superior strength compared to traditional aluminum frames. This choice of material minimizes the likelihood of binding and jamming when used with lenses or other filters, providing a solid and reliable attachment to your camera gear.

The full traction texture that encircles the X4 UV Filter ensures a secure grip and effortless application or removal from your lens. This thoughtful design not only enhances practicality but also contributes to the filter's durability, safeguarding your equipment from the inevitable bumps and knocks of active photography.

With its ultra-slim profile, the X4 UV Filter eliminates vignetting and light falloff, even on full-frame wide-angle setups, while remaining compatible with all your lens caps and additional filters. The double-threaded design further enhances versatility, allowing for seamless integration with your existing photography kit.

Choose the 62mm X4 UV Filter with MRC16 and nanotec Coating Layers for a durable, high-quality, and effective solution that reflects the innovative and professional standards of today's photographers. Experience the difference that a truly superior UV filter can make in preserving the integrity of your images and protecting your valuable lenses.
