To be fair, the falling off may be the lens - I can't tell. Basically it seems like there just aren't enough threads engaging. I am using it on a refurbished (by Nikon) Nikon AF-S 55-300 1:4.5-5.6. I have NOT tried any other filter on the lens.I have the same filter in 52mm and have used it on 2 other lenses (18-55 and 55-200) and it seems to engage more than this bigger filter in the longer lens.As long as you get it seated and remember to twist the filter orientation in the direction of tightening the filter it's okay. I got it backwards and ended up unscrewing the filter (which only seems to be less than a full revolution - less that one full thread) and it fell into dry sand. It doesn't look like it got damaged but I just don't enjoy using it because of the high possibility it may fall off again.And, it's hard to get the threads started.Again, I haven't used any other filter on this lens so it could be the lens too, which is more of a question because the lens was refurbished (although the threads don't look bad or as though they'd been truncated somehow).As for the pictures, I used it to effectively remove glare from a water body. It seems to work fine (as does my 52mm which I've used a lot more). No complaints but I may not see differences between this and a B+W anyway. I can certainly see the difference between this and no filter. I'd buy one again. I think the Tiffen's are a great cross between results and price. When I start seeing artifacts maybe I'll spring for a B+W or other brand.

I really liked this filter. I got this filter with the intention of the Solar eclipse that just occured. I am very happy that I got it and will be using again.

A good quality filter is a must for any lens. This filter definitely has the high-quality I was looking for.

Filter looks fine, however the Canon lens cap for the camcorder did not fit very well on the filter, so I will have to get another lens cap.

I love this filter. It does exactly what it's supposed to. It also protects the lens.

Got the Gobe Filter Kit 72mm MRC 16-Layer: UV, CPL Polarizer, ND8, ND1000 about a month ago. Since they arrived it's done nothing but rain. Eventually got out to try them and I have to say they did not disappointed. I am very pleased with the the photos as there is no colour cast like I was getting on the cheaper plastic ones. The only slight problem I got was when I knocked the lens and couldn't get the filter off. Easily solved by getting a small knife and running it round the filter where it screws onto the lens, pulls the threads even with no damage to either lens or filter... Happy Days!!

This telescope has great viewing capabilities, but i wish i could find the solar filter that goes with it.

I have been using this filter to protect my lens and it has done the job.
