55mm MCUV Lens Protection Filter with Lens Cap Optical Glass Ultra Slim 18 Multi-Layer Coatings UV Filter for Camera Lens Nano-Klear Series
SKU: KF01.K55V3
This is a nice set that works well with my Tamron lens with a 67mm filter. It screws on easily and provides additional protection at a reasonable price. It comes with a lens cap and tether which is handy. A nice UV filter that does the job well!

Feel so much better having an extra layer of protection on the glass. Fit was perfect and lens cap is top notch with no bump-opens like my Canon did regularly. Will definitely look to K&F for future filter needs.

The 'K&F Concept 67mm UV Filter Ultra Slim Japan Optics Multi Coated Ultraviolet Protection Lens Filter with Lens Cap' arrived in a branded box.
The lens is in a plastic case for protection, it also serves to protect one side of the filter, whilst the opposite side is protected by the lens cap.
The filter was an easy fit to my Nikon P900 and as it is slightly wider than some filters I found it easy to unscrew after use. I would however recommend carrying a suitable filter wrench just in case.
It would be nice to see a cover for the side of the filter not protected by the lens cap a the lens filter with cap attached are stored in a cellophane envelope in the case, I suggest putting the filter/cap combination into the envelope with the lens cap the same side as the flap which keeps the adhesive as far away from the lens as possible.
It would be nice to see a protective cover for the second side of the filter, maybe something push on.

When I first received the item, I thought I ordered the wrong one as you can see ... the first thing I saw was a lens cap! Lo and behold its actually an included lens cap and then more. Theres also a lanyard that is supposed to thread around the lens cap, and then a lens cloth too. I've had a few other K&F Concept lens cap, and filters ... simply becaus they are worth the money.
At the priced asked for, I cannot complain much. Looking at the filter against the back background of the filter, I certainly see it is coated. To be honest I think every lens needs a basic filter, if only to keep out the dust/smudges besides the knock. Better to damage the cheapish filter than the primary lens.
I don't see any issues looking through it, and taking pictures. So good enough for me... and now I have a spare lens cap already in case I lose the original.
So this is just slightly more than K&F CONCEPT Basic's non-coated fliter. I think the choice on which to choose is easy enough.

K&F have yet to put a foot wrong in my book and this is no exception.
Optically clear and well machined, this makes a perfect everyday filter and lens protector with the added benefit of being supplied with a lens cap.
UV filters are the foot soldiers of the filter world, unsung heroes that have saved many a lens from expensive repair, all lenses deserve one and you won't go far wrong ordering this.

I recently purchased a new lens for my dlsr. The first thing I do when I get a new lens is protect it with a clear, UV filter. I was very surprised to find that this filter came with a lens cap and a cleaning cloth!
The filter screws in perfectly and the glass is extremely clear! I've had filters that added a haze to the photos, but this one seems to be of much higher quality as those junk Tiffen's brand.
These will always stay on my lens unless they crack or haze up, which I don't foresee happening any time soon. A great filter to add to any lens. I am becoming a big fan of the K&F brand!!!

En 49mm, le filtre est parfaitement adapté au Fujifilm X100 V/VI (à condition d'avoir un porte-filtre adapté , bien sûr).
Il m'a semblé de très bonne qualité et est fourni avec une dragonne et un capuchon de protection, qui tombera à pic puisque le capuchon d'objectif d'origine de ces appareils ne tient pas avec un filtre.
Personnellement, je laisse toujours un filtre UV à demeure, ne serait-ce que comme mesure de protection de l'objectif.

This K&F Concept 77mm UV filter is a good accessory for your expensive camera lenses. It protects the front element from dust and scratches - or in my case flying mud at motocross events. The filter fits easily on to all my 77mm filter threaded lenses, and comes with a centre release K&F lens cap too. The lens cap also has a cap keeper if you want to avoid loosing the lens cap.
What I like about this filter is the thickness - or lack of it - as it's 3mm thick and that means it doesn't appear to darken the corners of the frame even on the wide-angle lenses I tried. I used it on my 16-35mm lens and there was no visible vignetting with this filter, and that does happen with thicker filters. The multi-coating must be rather good too as I did not see any evidence of lens flare even without a lens hood and the sun in the edge of the frame.
The UV blocking capabilities are not needed these days for digital cameras as the image sensors have a UV filter on them, so you won't see a change in the colour cast as described in the product info.
The filter comes in a good protective box, and also includes a microfibre cleaning cloth.
For the price this is a good value lens protection filter.

I'm a K&F Concept convert already so it was a no-brainer to order a K&F UV filter for my new lens.
This box contains not only the filter but also a replacement lens cap and attachable wrist strap. I thought this was an excellent idea as I like to have a spare lens cap available in case my original gets lost. The fact that you can attach it to your wrist means that there is no excuse for me to lose it in the first place!
All items come in a clear box. Okay, the filter will remain on my lens as I'm not one to keep changing filters, but the box will be handy to keep the lens cap in my camera bag.
Having used K&F filters in the past I have not noticed any distortion in my photos. In fact, I think they provide much more clarity than my old filters so I have just replaced the filters on other lenses with K&F ones.
I thoroughly recommend K&F Concept filters which I believe give some of the better known brands out there a run for their money on quality and price-point.

This filter appears very well made when attaching it to my Canon lens it screws in nice and securely. Straight out the box you get that impression from the box itself the protective storage box, the filter, lanyard and sealed cleaning cloth than comes with it.
The filter is super clear, something that really shows the quality different to my old cheap filters. I'm not sure how much of a different a UV filter actually makes given the coatings and number of lenses it needs to go through before reaching your cameras sensor. There is a lot of debate out there so will leave it the experts to elaborate further.
However I always have one to protect the expensive lens from getting scratched or damaged. This is not something maybe everyone needs but I have seen and heard of stories where the UV filter was sacrificed saving the lens. For example at a motor sporting event a stone was kicked up and smashed the filter but the lens was thankfully unharmed saving the photographer a lot of potential expense.
