Tiffen 77mm Digital Ultra Clear Water White Protection Filter

Rather to break a $15.00 filter than the front element of an expensive lens! Product is excellent but Amazon screwed up! I ordered five (5), they only sent four!

I use this on my Nikon P1000. Bought this primarily to protect the lens but it does interfere with the autofocus when my camera zoom is at or near maximum. When I remove the filter the camera autofocus works much faster.

I've been using this for a while and it fit just great out of the box. The prices was good and it protects my camera lens as advertised. Nice and clear and doesn't interfere with the focus of the lens. I would buy it again.

Ordered this Tiffin filter as part of the purchase of a Nikon 55-200mm f4 VR lens for my daughter. There was a discount $10.on any Tiffen filter when ordered w/this particular lens. I did not choose the Amazon suggested lens filter which cost around $ 9.99 or free as part of the promo. I generally do not buy the cheapest filter. I ordered this particular filter that this review is about instead which cost double. There was no mention of being multicoated or even a coated filter- but as even Nikon does not always state their filters are coated,(they all are generally multi-coated) I assumed that a Tiffen 52mm which is a small filter for $20.00 was at least coated. We always keep at least a clear or UV filter on all our lenses for protecting front glass and to prevent ghosting & reflective artifacts in photos & routinely expect & use only coated or multicoated filters as such. This filter is not either. It is clear as the name suggests, but has already on occasion introduced artifacts that require workarounds which in my opinion is unacceptable even for a $20.00 filter. But I guess you get what you pay for with some things.You can tell if a filter is coated or multicoated by holding it pointed at a bright area or light and look in reflection of lens- if pinkish its coated if greenish- multicoated.I would think that all filters would be coated this day & age unless of course for whatever reason, you would want an uncoated filter. That's my opinion. Any company selling an uncoated/coated filter should disclose that in their description of the filter spec's. I believe that is an important detail regarding a filter that most people would want to know about. I did research at different places trying to see if this particular filter was coated. Could not find out. As it is one of my rules (that I broke this time) is don't assume anything. I would not have purchased this filter.I will not be purchasing any more Tiffen filters again unless they clearly disclose this one way or the other. I typically buy Sigma & Quantaray's Professional line- they all disclose their specs clearly & occasionally Nikon filters, which are excellent- though usually you may have to do a little digging but you will find out the specs.

Prior to the purchase of the tiffen 58mm digital ultra clear water white protection filter, we used a UV Haze filter as a means to protect the camera lense. After extreme frustration with dull whites and less than vibrant colors in specific situations, we searched for an alternate solution. This filter addresses the concerns and fits the requirements nicely! Protecting our primary lense from undesireable elements is important; obtaining clear images with the colors as vibrant as possible is essential and knowing we can attach other filters to this one is a nice bonus. Overall, we recommend this filter to anyone looking to protect a camera lense and still obtain the same high quality images the camera is designed to capture. This is a 5-star product!! We will purchase another tiffen digital ultra clear water white protection filter our next lense too.** This filter is currently used on a Canon Rebel XSi with a 18-55 lense. We are looking to acquire a Sigma 18-250 in the near future as our general lense we leave on the camera.

What would have been a great picture was rendered virtually useless by this Protection Filter. The ghosting and flare does not occur on every picture but it does happen enough to make it quite aggravating.I have not used it with flash photography, only daylight nature scenes, so I cannot testify as to low light flash situations.These protection filters are absolutely necessary to protect expensive lenses but this one just doesn't measure up. Spend the extra money and get the Nikon clear filter or wait till you can afford it. Don't waste the perfect shots. They don't happen easily. Why hinder your success with this filter...

There have been several reviewers that stated they got a "green glow" from the lower end Tiffen 67m filter. This encouraged me to upgrade to this model. A good thing to remember is that with a Macro lens, you might be getting your glass real close to things. Protecting it is a good investment.I find absolutely no flares, glows, hazes or any sign at all of this filter being on my lens in either macro or distance shooting, with stills or video. I have used this in my studio with over 10 lights on the subject. All seems clear. It's a decent product.

THIS is the filter to buy if you're into photography and want to protect your camera's lens. Forget about a UV filter. That does nothing as your camera has a native ability to filter out UV. One of the reasons this is better than a UV filter is because it allows the maximum amount of light to reach the sensor as opposed to a UV filter, while still protecting your lens.And, DON'T buy any quality less than Tiffen or Hoya. They're affordable and have great quality.

I use a filter on every lens I own. This is purely to protect the lens, and I don't really care if it's skylight or clear. This filter does the job at a good price. If you want to pay a small fortune for one that does the same job with no discernible difference in quality, go ahead.

Qualitativ hochwertiger Filter. Aber leider nicht vergütet und nur leicht Entspiegelt. Hat deutliche Lichtreflexe, Lampen oder Gegenlicht spiegeln sich deutlich. Hab ihn gegen einen Hoya getauscht.
