Perfect in appearance but can be very tight
bought 4 filters: 3 of 67mm and 1 of 77mm. They came in a nice packaging (carton + a polypropylene box) Visually they all look good. To my eyes there is no visible drop in image quality with this filter compared to. The product looks good. I would give this product 5 stars if I didn't have major complaints about the mechanical part. The 77mm is almost perfect mechanically - a good match for the lenses I've tested it with. The first 67mm filter didn't fit my Canon 24-105mm F4 lens as well as my Fujifilm 18-135mm - it was impossible to screw it in due to the friction - just couldn't get into the thread. The second 67mm was almost perfect - a bit narrower than the Hoya HMC filter but perfectly acceptable. The third 67mm filter is narrower than the second, but I was able to put it on. I have decided to return the first 67mm filter and will keep the other 3 (2 x 67mm and 1x 77mm). Still, my thought is - was it worth the experimentation? I don't know it. The basic Hoya HMC is twice the price but is mechanically perfect. From another perspective, you could buy two of these and keep the one that fits...
