Overall, this product is made very well, it fits perfect on my lens and does a fantastic job at what it’s intended to do. If you need UV or more importantly damage protection, this is a great choice that I highly recommend for this price point.

I have included some pictures and video to help show the quality of the product. I hope you found this information to be helpful in your decision.

Quality filters from K&F Concepts at an affordable price. The filter is slim and easily screws onto my lens. I experience no vignetting with this filter on my 18-45mm kit lens. The lens is clear and provides a layer of protection for my lens. The photos included show the photo taken with no filter attached (the one with the filter in the photo) and then the same shot after I installed the filter. No difference - exactly what I'm looking for. You can't go wrong with K&F concepts - high-end quality at a budget-friendly price.

I know some people arent fans of putting glass on top of glass, but often times when you rent a lens its gonna have a protective filter on it. I needed something to protect my 35 1.8s lens for Nikon. This allows me to do that. The picture quality remains solid. I just wish the case this came in wasnt so big.

While a clear filter may not be the most exciting bit of camera gear, it can prove valuable in protecting your expensive lens investment. This filter seems optically clear and does not add any color cast. From my readings I barely see any light loss, nor have I run into internal reflections. The filter has some grip indents on the outside which make it easy to install and remove. Many of my older filters would become stuck and difficult to remove, but I don't anticipate that with this one. It is not overly thin, but I have not discovered any vignetting with this at the wide end of my 24-70 Lumix S Pro lens.

If you tend to shoot in harsh environments, or anywhere that may cause contact with your front lens element, seriously give this some consideration. It's affordable protection worth having.

K&F makes fixed filters and this UV filter is no different. My 24-70 has been naked for a while and I decided it was time to get it a protective UV filter as I've added it back to my rotation of travel lenses so I ordered a matching 77mm Filter. The K&F filter surprised me when I first unpacked it. First, the case is fantastic. It's a smoky transparent hardshell plastic case secured with 4 tabs and a quick twist to lock and unlock. It's a large filter housing as the same housing fits 82mm filters but can also fit smaller filters down to 43mm. And the filters don't slip around. But how? Inside the case are two tapered sections of silicone, a small one with 2 ribs and a large one with 10. The large one has numbers next to each rib indicating the size it fits (43, 46, 49, 52, 55 , 58, 62, 67, 72, 77, 82). The small one with 2 ribs is meant to hold the opposite end of the filter and stabilize it. As long as your filter is one of the sizes listed, it should fit this housing and be held securely in place by the silicone ridges. Now it holds my single layer filters with no problem, but it doesn't fit my variable ND filters or filters with rotating handles/extensions that protrude. The filter itself is very well made. The aluminum housing has built in two sections with thick knurling, making the filter easy to grab during installation and removal. The filter itself does not noticeably affect my image quality on my 24-70 compared to no filter when viewing an image up to 2x in Lightroom, nor do I notice any significant color cast. For me, the K&F UV filter is well designed and easy to use.

This is a basic UV filter. It seems to do a good job at protecting the camera sensor from UV rays and doesn't mess with the image quality

Definitely low profile, camera UV protection. I think there is a bit more contrast in photos too, which is welcome! Highly recommended!

Got caught in the rain with the filter at a football game for the first time. The rain wasn't predicted so I didn't have rain gear with me for my cameras. I was amazed at how the water beaded off the filter and I was able to shake it off most of the time. In terms of image quality, I couldn't tell any difference between this filter and a much more expensive black and white filter. I bought several.
