    Faultless For Proection with No Auto Focusing Issues!

    This is a great investment in protecting your lenses and you won't get the auto focus issues that you get with cheaper brands. If you want tack sharp images while protecting your glass, go with these Hoya Filters for every lens purchase! If you go with cheaper brands instead of the quality ones, your camera lens will not always be able to auto focus correctly and you will find you have unusable shots. If you're doing something you can only shoot once, don't take chances, invest in quality with Hoya.

    Excellent filter

    I'm a brand snob. I generally use filters from a photo store near my home that are fantastic, but they have been completely out of stock since August. I gave these Hoyas a try for some new Nikon glass (50mm F1.4, and 50mm F1.8) and no issues at all. I have also used Tiffen and I got weird glare on my 50mm F1.8. No idea why. It was the weirdest thing. These Hoya's will be my go to filter from now on.

    Magnificent filter

    I bought this for my new Nikon 52mm 1.8. So far, I'm really satisfied with it. It doesn't show any glare when I looked at it from multiple angles, which indicates it has a really nice coating that won't degrade your image quality, unlike some cheaper ones. (I'm aware that pros would think otherwise, that UV filter does reduce image quality, but for my daily use, I don't see any differences, even at 100% magnification of f/8 shots.)Do spend a little bit more and get a brand-name multicoated filter when you need protection for your lenses. I used to buy the cheapest ones that I could find, but after trying out some brand-name filters (Sigma, Hoya), I was blown away.
