Digital camera reviews of Tiffen 72mm UV Protection Filter

Digital camera Review: Good filter
Summary: 5 Stars

Hard to find large lens filters like this one - price is right and it does its job of protecting the lens. Using this on Canon EF 28-135mm IS USM lens with lens hood. No problem so far.

Digital camera Review: Good quality filter at a reaonable price
Summary: 5 Stars

Tiffin makes a quality filter at a good price. I always purchase some type of protective filter for my camera lenses and these do the job.

Digital camera Review: Good quality product, but not what I wanted.
Summary: 3 Stars

The product felt strong, solid, and well put together. The glass was clear with no visible tint or imperfections. Although this and another filter (same type different size) both arrived with smudges on the glass. The smudges were fairly easy to wipe off, but I suspect the items are either not cleaned before packaging, or I received someone's returned item. However, I had to return this item since they DON'T contain any anti-glare/reflective coating on them. When shooting towards a light source (light bulb, tv, sun, etc) a green reflection of the light source would appear on the recorded image. The green reflected image was caused by a reflection bouncing off of my lens's green tinted anti-glare coating which was bounced right back into the camera by this filter. If your lens isn't coated in an anti-glare coating the result will be even worse.
Instead I picked up Quantaray filters from a local Wolf Camera that were coated with the anti-glare. They only cost a little more, and the green reflection is now gone. Make sure you look for a filter with the anti-glare

Digital camera Review: Great bargain for a UV filter
Summary: 4 Stars

A good, cheap UV filter for protecting lenses. I bought this for my Nikon 18-200mm lens. It can often introduce flares into your images when shooting towards sunlight or strong light sources so beware. To reduce that effect, buy a multi coated filter.

Digital camera Review: Great general filter
Summary: 5 Stars

Thanks for the pleasantly inexpensive filter for my overpriced 18-200 Nikon lens. No packing problems or dust issues.
