Like all products made in Japan, this UV lens is fantastic. Very good quality at a reasonable price. The only gripe I could find was the adjustment, which I found a bit difficult...but to be fair I have big hands...have yet to try to fit a lens hood to it so will update when I do

As a photographer with over 40 years of experience I have bought many hundreds of UV filters over the years and these days I usually only think of the B+W and HOYA FUSION ones, but my daughter needed a filter for a kit lens so I took a chance cheaper alternative. This brand arrived well packaged, clean and ready for assembly without fiddling with a lens cloth. The quality is amazing and I wouldn't hesitate to buy one again, even at triple the price! awesome filters for all those lenses you want to protect but don't want to waste the whole world. My honest opinion is yes, the frame is thinner and lighter than HOYA and B+W, but it's perfectly fine and the glass and coatings are every bit as good as the top brands, so these filters are absolutes on every level super buy.

I only bought the filter to protect my lens. The filter is quite thick for my standards, but can be screwed onto the lens to some extent. I've had smoother ones before. But okay so far.

Fantstic does exactly what you need it to do — reducing glare and dust and object protection for the expensive lens behind it. Fits very well and feels quality which suggests about the price. The packaging of a product I doubt you'll ever need to remove is oddly luxurious, unless you use multiple filters. Very impressive

Used to prevent dust in my Sigma 24-70 (which is known for its dust problems under the front lens). I have not noticed any loss of quality in my photos

Although the glass has a purple tint, the colors of the images are accurate and unchanged compared to without a filter. However, the lens flare is purple. I bought this to protect the front lens element rather than to protect the UV filtering. It's nice and slim, allows my Fujifilm lens cap to be attached.
