40.5mm MCUV Protection Filter Nano-Klear Series - Slim Frame with Multi-Resistant Coating for Camera Lens
SKU: KF01.K40
Essential to protect a lens without compromising the quality of the shots. In addition, the lens cap can be perfectly attached to it. Screwed to a 16/300 Tamron zoom.

The offered filter has an excellent coating and good light transmission. It's well packed, dust free and the cleaning microfiber cloth is a nice touch. However, it's not for every lens out there. While I like the knurled ring for better tactile feel, it makes it impossible to fit the lens hood on certain lenses like my Sigma 45mm 2.8 lens. The knurling protrudes beyond the diameter of the filter and interferes with the hood. I hope that K&F will offer options when it comes to the design of their filter rings to circumvent this problem.

I bought the gals to protect the lens of my FZ83. I can't say anything negative about the quality. My lens cap fits and the frame is made of nice high-quality metal. The Gals itself has no negative influence on my pictures.

In this case, the UV filter mainly fulfills the function of mechanically protecting the lens. He does it well and I didn't expect more. I can't assess the glass values and optical data.

UV filters something many photographer takes for granted or think will affect their images when out in the field,I had previously purchased the K&N Adjustable ND filter that does away with the cross effect you normally get and I was so impressed I thought I would try out one of their UV filters to see how well it holds up to some of my others, first thing you will notice is that it is very slim "ultra Slim" Double threaded yet only 3mm in depth impressive indeed.you will also notice right away that it has some coating on the glass which blocks and prevents the harmful effects of UV rays and eliminates haze that can register a bluish cast from scenic shots.One if the most important features for me was to see if the claim that it does not affect image quality was true as many other filters have some slight effect on sharpness, and to do this I got the back of the box from the uv filter which has a high contrast of black and white and also had a light opposite and one to the right to test for glare effects, The result which I have posted down below, which was extremely impressive, I zoomed in at 100% and could not see any major effects to my image quality, least to say that with my own eyes I could not see any negative effect to the quality.I will let the photos speak for themselves.you will hear a lot of people say UV filters are pointless and maybe so with lower quality ones but I have had a uv filter save my 16-35mm lens when it fell, I also use them for my fitness shoots which I shot in a warehouse with loads of dust and when I use smoke grenades this prevents small particles entering the lens as well as settling on my elements.this filter also has notches to make it easier to unscrew, i know this is a nice welcome for me as i have to carry a flat balloon with me in my bag to help grip some of my others when they get stuck.below you will see two other filters which i have stacked next to the K&F concept these are also meant to be slim line, you will be able to see the difference in thickness and quality.Last but no means least the last two images are the before and after the filter was attached to prove that image quality is not effected.For £7 you have nothing to lose and lots to gain trust me :)

I needed a UV filter for my Canon 24-70mm lens. The filter is good fit. The quality of the glass is outstanding. The filter comes in a plastic container which provides protection when I take the filter off lens and store in my camera bag. This protects the filter from scratches when not in use.
