This is a great protection filter for an expensive lens. I recently ordered a set of diffusion filters from K&F Concept for one of my lenses and was very happy with the quality of the glass and the workmanship. I didn't hesitate to order this UV filter when it became available. I ordered the 55mm version for a standard Nikkor lens that was part of a DSLR kit. Years ago I used UV filters on my film camera lenses, but I'm just beginning to learn how to use digital cameras. I imagine this might help with some outdoor shots, but I was primarily interested in just protecting my lens. This filter is thin, light weight and very easy to attach to my lens. The optical quality of the AGC glass made in Japan is very high. My images are sharp and I can't see any aberrations in the glass. I appreciate that this filter is shock resistant, water resistant, and especially scratch resistant, as it's surprisingly easy to damage a lens or get it wet or dirty (and they're not that easy to clean). It's nice to keep dust off my lens and not have to worry so much about something happening to it so all I can think about is shooting. I have several other lenses of different sizes that also need protection filters and I will certainly look for this brand. I also like the sturdy storage box that this lens came in. The current price of $32.99 is a very reasonable price and such a worthwhile purchase letting me know my expensive lenses are protected. water-resistant and particularly scratch-resistant, as it's surprisingly easy to damage a lens or get it wet or dirty (and they're not that easy to clean).
