Tiffen filters--a family tradition.

It's a family tradition--Tiffen filters. First thing I put on a lens is a UV filter (latest 80-400 Nikon). Images have been clear & sharp with the filter in use. Good quality reliable filter that I use for lens protection. My inherited Rolleiflex twin lens has a full complement of Tiffen filters.

Is what it is

4 starts because I received a 77mm instead of 82 as ordered. I decided to keep it and use on a different lens. Seems fine for what it is.

As with a real friend, a UV filter is there.

This Tiffen UV filter no only provides general protection from dust, rain, scratches, finger prints and others hazards, it also reduces the bluish cast of daylight and helps to absorb ultraviolet light. I recommend UV filters.

Good protection

Good option to protect a camera lens. Unfortunately it did not match the lens I purchased at the same time. So I haven't been able to use it yet.

Protective Tiffen Filter - great protection for g70 lens...

Threaded on smoothly onto my g70 lens. Then I put hood on, fit perfectly. I use it as added protection for the lens. Tiffen filters are great products.

Perfectly Fine, Cheap UV Filter

Decent quality, cheap UV filter. Used exclusively for keeping a cap off my 67 mm lenses when I'm walking around and don't have another filter on.

Great Lens Protector

These are great lens protectors for any lens. I give them 4 out of 5 stars because they aren't the best on the market but do their job very well. The value is hard to beat.

Good service

By CantonGuy

Actually, I did not use this particular filter yet. But I used other Tiffen filters before. I am expecting a similar quality. I am yet to discover any specific cons.

Would buy this product again

Lens protection is worth every penny you spend on it.

Take your photography to the next level with the 40.5mm UV (Ultra Violet) Glass Filter. This high-quality filter is designed to safeguard your camera or camcorder lens against common threats like dust, moisture, fingerprints, and scratches. Not only does it serve as a durable protective layer, but it also enhances your image quality by absorbing Ultra Violet (UV) light, which can often result in a haze or a bluish cast in your photos, especially when shooting from high altitudes or over water.

The UV Glass Filter is particularly effective for digital cameras, which are more sensitive to UV light than the human eye. By filtering out this unwanted light, the UV Glass Filter ensures that your images are clear, crisp, and free of any UV-induced distortions.

This reliable filter is a product of Tiffen, a reputable brand known for its commitment to producing top-tier photography equipment. It's designed to stay on your lens at all times, providing constant protection without affecting color or contrast, making it an indispensable accessory for any photography enthusiast.

The 40.5mm UV Glass Filter comes in a variety of absorption levels and sizes, including standard UV, multi-coated for extra flare protection, UV Warm that combines UV with Tiffen's '812' warming filter, and several Haze options that absorb varying percentages of UV light. There's also a UV Wide Angle Thin option specifically designed for use with wide-angle lenses.

Whether you're a professional photographer or a hobbyist, the 40.5mm UV (Ultra Violet) Glass Filter is an affordable and effective solution to protect your equipment and enhance the quality of your photos.
