Product Description
UV filters are considered a standard accessory for every SLR lens, including the lens that may have been included with your camera. The size is designed to fit the threads in front of your lens. It protects the actual lens from dust, fingerprints, and other small substances that can harm image results. The filter is also easier to keep clean. That's why it should always remain on your camera. The filter has threads to accept any other effect filters you may wish to add.

 GIFT for christmas December 27, 2008
THIS FILTER WAS FOR MY SON WHO GOT A NEW CAMERA FOR CHRISTMAS. HE WAS VERY HAPPY WITH THE FILTER AND DID RECOMMEDED IT FOR ANY ONE WHO IS LOOKING FOR A FILTER AND THE PRODUCT IS GREAT AND MY SON IS VERY HAPPY AND THANK YOU!
Great price! No complaints. Cheap insurance and more! December 21, 2008
The UV filter is used by most of us as simply protection for our expensive lenses. It is the primary reason I bought this filter, and at this pricing, it's unbeatable. It fits nicely on the business end of my Nikkor 17-200mm VR lens, with absolutely no issues on focus, clarity or even the lens cap.
But I discovered that it's a bit more than that, and this filter actually works as designed in blocking UV light. Add that to the price and fit, and this filter gets my highest recommendation.
great priced filter December 21, 2008
This is a great price for a filter. It appears to be glass and protects well. Hasn't scratched so far. I would recommend it instead of the very high prices some stores charge.
Filters are Great...The Filter Pouch Included is Not December 19, 2008

I have used Tiffen filters for years and I purchased this combo when I got a new lens and needed the new ring size. As with my previous Tiffen experiences, these filters are of good quality and I have found no flaws with the ones I received.
I swear by the circular polarizer for outdoor shots. I wouldn't dare to go without lens protection and the UV Filter does that just fine. I haven't given the 812 much of a test drive so I will refrain from commenting on that filter.
Unfortunately though, the velcro on the included filter pouch is coming unstitched already (2 weeks of moderate use) and I will have to purchase a better alternative. Personally I don't find this to be to big of an inconvenience because the price is more than enough value for the 3 filters, but it seems somewhat cheap for a company with an otherwise good reputation for quality.
5 Stars if not for the pouch, but seeing as it is part of the "essentials kit" I can only give 4 stars due to its lack of quality.
No problems... December 16, 2008
I got this filter and haven't had any problems with it getting scratched... Its doing what I need it to!
