Tiffen 67mm UV Protection Filter (Black)

I've been using the Tiffen 67UVP 67mm UV Protection Filter for a few months now, and I'm really impressed with it. Here's why I think it's a great choice for anyone looking for a lens protector:Protection First and ForemostThe primary function of a UV filter is to shield your valuable camera lens from scratches, dust, and fingerprints. The Tiffen 67UVP does this admirably. It's well-built with a scratch-resistant surface and a tight-fitting metal ring that minimizes the chance of the filter falling off accidentally.Double Duty: UV Protection and Clear ImagesWhile the UV protection is a bonus, the filter doesn't affect the image quality in any noticeable way. There's no color cast or softening, and it doesn't introduce any vignetting (dark corners) even on wide-angle lenses. This makes it a great option for keeping on your lens at all times for peace of mind.Affordable ProtectionTiffen UV filters are known for being well-priced, and the 67UVP is no exception. For around $10 to $20, you're getting a high-quality filter from a reputable brand that will last for years.Overall, I highly recommend the Tiffen 67UVP 67mm UV Protection Filter. It's an affordable way to safeguard your investment and keep your lens looking its best.Here are some additional points to consider:Some photographers argue that UV filters can very slightly reduce image quality. In my experience, this is negligible and far outweighed by the protection benefits.If you're mostly shooting indoors or in good lighting conditions, a UV filter may not be necessary. However, it's still a good idea to have one on hand for situations where dust or scratches are a concern.

Love this. Protects my lenses really well, keeps dirt out, and prevents any kind of scratches or damage. 10/10, highly recommend. NEVER going back to REGULAR🤢 contact lenses again!! (they do hurt a little, but you get used to it!!😊)

There is ongoing debate over the use of UV filters. If you buy an expensive lens, why cover it up with a cheap piece of glass? Or why not take a cheap but effective insurance policy on your expensive lens? Which brand is the best? While that debate rages and while you search for and save up for the ultimate, perfect UV protection filter, just go ahead and pick this one up. This is a really good and cheap way to test drive UV filters.Why? The price is cheap enough that it's not a huge loss to your wallet and it's a cheap and usually unobstructive method of keeping your glass protected from dings, scratches and perhaps drops.Construction is satisfactory enough. You can tell where the metal meets the glass, it isn't the most precisely cut piece of glass but after having two both survive a year of my carelessness they are still going strong. The rim is made out of good quality metal and screws smoothly into myCanon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 II Lens for EOS Digital SLR Rebel XT, XTI, 20D & 30D Digital Cameras,Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon Digital SLR CamerasandCanon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM Lens for Canon SLR Cameras. Haven't had any threading issues at all. It also cleans very easily with lens solution and microfiber cloth. The original lens caps also still fit onto this filter though they will sit a little higher than before.I keep these on most of the time and I haven't noticed any image quality loss issues between when I do have them and when I don't. (however, i don't spend my time magnifying pixels on my shots). That being said, this filter isn't without its' faults. It's susceptible to ghosting issues and flare issues as mentioned in other reviews. However, those problems are pretty rare in my experience and so obvious when I see it in the viewfinder that I just take the filter off for those shots and put the filter back on when I'm back to walking around. It is sometimes inconvenient but I don't expect perfection at this price and a little inconvenience now and then is worth protecting the lens.You could obviously do better when purchasing a UV filter but you will probably have to pay for it. In this price range however, it's hard to go wrong with this filter. I have other cheap UV filters and those filters have obvious flaws in image quality. With this filter, you will know when it's flaws are acting up and you can deal with it on the spot. If you're a new photographer or a budget photographer who wants to keep their lens protected until they are comfortable shelling out more cash for a more reputable filter, this is the way to go.I have two of these (though I'll admit that I got them free as an promotion from Dropy when I purchased two of my lenses through them). For the price and substantial quality you get for that price I would gladly buy it again if needed.

This filter comes at a fair price and is an essential item for photographers who travel. UV filters don't affect your photos, but protect your expensive lenses and camera sensors from damage when shooting outdoors. It's much easier to replace an $8 filter than a $300 lens.This filter works with the lens cap that came with the lens, but double check the diameter of your lens, as one size does not fit all. I already have a bunch of filters, but my newest lens requires a slightly smaller filter, which is why I purchased this item.

Good quality and well-made. Fits perfectly on my lens and the outside metal thread easily accepts my lens hood. I am very happy with the craftsmanship and value.
