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.

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.

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.

Let your photography reach new heights of clarity and protection with the 95mm X4 UV Traction Filter, a pinnacle of innovation from Breakthrough Photography. Designed for the discerning professional, this filter boasts unparalleled sharpness and a commitment to excellence that is 110% guaranteed.

Crafted with the critically acclaimed SCHOTT Ultrawhite B270 optical glass from Germany, the X4 UV Traction Filter ensures the highest optical resolution beyond any other protection filter on the market. The exceptional quality of the glass, coupled with Breakthrough Photography's advanced multi-resistant coating (MRC16), enhances light transmission to an impressive 99.4%. This meticulous 16-layer coating not only boosts image brightness but also fortifies the filter with a layer that surpasses the hardness of the glass itself.

The cutting-edge nanotec Nano Coating on both sides of the filter works tirelessly to repel dirt, water, and other elements. This innovative technology ensures that droplets bead up instead of absorbing, facilitating a swift and effortless cleaning process that keeps your images spotless and your workflow efficient.

Embrace the breakthrough design that offers both traction and durability. The X4 UV Traction Filter features a full traction texture around its circumference, providing a secure grip and ease of attachment or removal. This thoughtful design addresses the real-world challenges faced by photographers in the field, ensuring that your filter remains tightly in place, even amidst the hustle of on-location shoots.

Machined from robust brass, the X4 UV Traction Filter's frame is engineered for resilience. Brass is renowned for its strength and resistance to binding and jamming, offering a more reliable and solid feel compared to traditional aluminum frames. This meticulous attention to material choice underscores Breakthrough Photography's commitment to quality and functionality.

The ultra-slim, double-threaded 3.2mm Traction Frame is a testament to the brand's philosophy of 'less is more.' It eliminates vignetting and light falloff, even on full-frame wide-angle setups, while maintaining compatibility with all your lens caps. The double-threaded design also allows for the addition of other filters, ensuring versatility in your photographic endeavors.

Breakthrough Photography stands behind their product with an unwavering 25 Year Ironclad Guarantee, reflecting their confidence in the X4 UV Traction Filter's enduring performance. Each filter is uniquely identified with a laser-engraved serial number, simplifying the activation process and providing a lifetime of dedicated support.
