Customers Reviews  2010-02-11 What a deal! They protect my $1000 lens for what I paid in taxes on the lens. Tiffen came highly recommended, and I can see why. Less expensive than some filters, I like these because their optics don't seem to affect my pictures, they feel sturdy, and they protect the lens. Exactly what they're supposed to do, for what I believe is a bargain price. |  2009-12-27 Tiffen Polarizer Filter We have ordered the wrong size, and hope that exchange goes smoothly. The product, ordering and shipping time were very good. |  2009-10-11 Just how it was described Worked well, well worth the money. I used it for a sunny day at the church. It created the pictures just what I was looking for. I would reccomend this product to everyone. |  2009-09-02 Just OK, I'd get something else if I had to buy over again I purchased this as part of a special offer with a new Nikkor 18-200 VR. I set out to just get a UV filter to protect my new lens but found this package deal and decided to take it. I have to honestly say the filters are not of the best quality. The optical characteristics of the UV filter are substandard. It has very bad glare. The polarizer and the color warming filter also glare but its not as noticeable because they actually alter the appearance of the image.
I wound up getting another UV filter (B+W) which is awesome. I give this three stars because you do get a lot for your money and most beginners may not notice or care about the optics. If Tiffen could improve the glare on these filters this would be a great deal. Until then if you have the money I'd get something better (Hoya or B+W) |  2009-04-14 Top notch so far Tiffen is a new brand to me. it is obviously well priced, because it is used in kits, which is how I discovered it. But the quality seems very good, and the packaging for use in a camera kit bag (soft padded envelope instead of hard plastic shell) is great. I will learn more, I am sure, as I use some of the others, in particular the polarizing filter. But I have been happy enough to get Tiffens for all my lenses. Through Amazon of course. They are always competitive on price, if compared to trusted sellers only. | |
