It was on backorder originally but it wasn't long before it was available and shipped to me. It works great and exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

This fit and works well on my new 24mm f1.8 Nikkor. Slim model allows me to stack a polarizer.

Looks like a filter. Works like a clear filter. Canon lens cap does not sit very deep in the threads, barely attaches really,,,But has not popped off yet.

Can’t go wrong with a Tiffen UV filter. I protect all my lenses with UV filters

Always use a Tifen UV filter on all my lens as added protection for the expensive glass behind the filter. The filter adds no aberrations and is easily removed to swap a polarizing filter.

Love the thin ring as I can still use the lens hood and lens cap.

Just opening the package gives you that feeling that you purchased something something that will be with you and on your lens for a very long time. I'm glad I made this purchase.

There is no way to attach the lens cap to the front with this filter installed.

Works great for my Nikon lens - Tiffen has never disappointed me with their products that I've used over the years. This one works great for a good price.

Always keep one of these on my lens. If you could see what happened the other day, you would too. Saved the $1000 lens, shattered the filter. Tiffen is great quality, Adorama delivers superbly.

Excellent value for money filter. Does provide excellent protection and still able to fit the lens cap for my Canon 10-18mm lens. The item arrived in a well packaged mail in real quick time, despite selecting standard shipping option.

Love it for protection . Must have.

thin design for wide angle lens
By JEFFREY K.
excellent optics and uv protection but this, and all wide angle,thin glass, filters, have no front threads to hold the lens cap on. you must get a push on cap to protect the filter. for this 77mm filter, i got an 80mm od push on cap from b+w at adorama.
Good quality
By CAROL B.
Great glass. Doesn't affect the images. Love the low profile except be aware that you can't use a lens cap with this filter.
An essential tool for photographers, the 62mm UV (Ultra Violet) Wide Angle Thin Glass Filter is designed to absorb UV light, which is more perceptible to film than to the human eye. This UV light often manifests as a haze or bluish cast in photos, particularly when shooting from high altitudes or over long distances, especially over bodies of water.
The UV filter serves a dual purpose, not only enhancing your photography by eliminating unwanted UV light but also providing a protective barrier for your lens. It safeguards your lens against dust, moisture, fingerprints, and scratches, as well as potential damage from cleaning.
The beauty of this UV filter lies in its ability to perform these functions without absorbing any normal light or altering color or contrast. This means it can remain on your lens at all times without affecting the quality of your images.
Tiffen, a trusted name in photography, offers UV filters in a range of absorption levels and sizes. The standard UV filter is the most popular choice for lens protection. The UV MC filter is multi-coated for additional flare protection, while the UV Warm filter combines UV absorption with Tiffen's '812' warming filter for a unique effect.
The Haze series of filters offer varying levels of UV light absorption, from 75% with Haze 1 to nearly 100% with Haze 17. The UV Wide Angle Thin filter is specifically designed for use with wide-angle lenses.
It's worth noting that Tiffen's wide-angle filters are designed with low-profile rings to prevent vignetting, a common issue when using standard filters with ultra-wide-angle lenses. These filters do not have a front thread and cannot accept standard snap-on lens caps.
In summary, the 62mm UV (Ultra Violet) Wide Angle Thin Glass Filter is a versatile, protective, and quality-enhancing tool for any photographer's kit.
