Love this camera lens and the case it came in! Very high resolution picture shots taken with this with unbelievable clarity! Very durable and made with good quality. Love adding this to my photo bag for must have shots!

UV filters are mostly used just to protect the front of your lens. One of the biggest arguments against them, however, is that by using one you are putting a lower quality piece of glass in front of your expensive glass. This can lead to negative impacts in your picture quality such as loss in sharpness, extra glare, loss in contrast, etc. So with that being said, the best thing a UV filter can do is be as unnoticeable as possible and that is exactly what this K&F filter is. I use this filter on my Tampon 70-200 2.8 G2 and I can confidently say I have not experienced any negative impacts on my pictures. I have experienced no glare, no vignetting, and no effects on the image quality. This does perform better than the cheaper UV filters I've bought from K&F Concept in the past. If you have a pro-grade lens and want to protect the front element, I would recommend investing in this UV filter rather than one of the cheaper ones. I think that if you went the cheaper route, you'd either find yourself coming back to get this one or getting frustrated with using a UV filter in general.

This filter, if nothing else, helps keep my marriage on an even keel.

Now I won't rehash the old UV vs non-UV filter debate, but personally I don't really feel I need a UV filter on my DSLR lenses, and if I were the only person using my cameras I wouldn't bother at all as I'm extremely careful with all of my equipment. My wife, on the other hand...

Every time my wife takes out one of my cameras she treats it the same way she treats her sunglasses (lenses down on the dashboard of her car, jamming them in her pockets without a case or a second thought, smudges... just... everywhere. Oh, the humanity). When it comes to optical equipment she's history's greatest monster, a true menace to glass, but complaining about this to her will only ever end in a resentful argument.

So the solution? A high quality UV filter that will protect my lenses without reducing image quality. I've tried cheap filters in the past that I've ended up removing every time I take a shot because there's noticeable degradation in the results, but as this is a high quality filter I can't see any different in the final product with or without the filter. All I see is a clean, scratch- and fingerprint-free lens coming back to me safe and sound, and that's worth its weight in gold.

its hard to believe, but this is the first UV filter that I have had that actually makes my images BETTER! Most UV filters I have used over the years have had no real real visible effect on my images, and some have actually had negative effects because of poor quality. This filter is seriously amazing to me. It better be for the price, right?! Lol. its pretty expensive, but my images are actually coming out better with it, so I guess its worth it. Loving everything that is coming out of K&F Concepts lately. they have really stepped up their game.

67 mm fit just right on my Tamron. If you use an expensive lens, I recommend getting one of these to protect the glass.

Simple and clean is the way. I've learned that some cheaper alternatives add distortion or even discoloration to your photos and I don't want something that keeps me in the touch ups longer than I need to be. K&F has really done something simple and beautiful here. No distortion. No discoloration. And I can let this live on my lens to keep it safe and offer an extra line of defense in the unfortunate event that something happens. Quality of the build is nothing short of what you'd expect from K&F. Everything fits into place, screws on nicely, and the glass feels like it's secured into the metal housing. Definitely recommend even with the other massive amounts of competition out there.
