Tiffen 58mm UV Protection Filter Reviews
It's better to crack this filter than crack your lens. If you want a filter that will actually improve your images, do not get this filter, go with a circular polarizer or a neutral density filter instead. Some say that cheap Tiffen filters degrade the quality of the images, but I haven't noticed any degradation. The only thing this filter is good for is protecting the lens from physical damage (dust, prints, scratches, water spots, etc).
It also has a weird glass finish in the edges that make it look cheap (even though it is) It's does a good work by day though it can create weird flares by night if you are trying to picture below a bright light or if there's one pointing towards you. It's just a protection filter.
I have one of these on every lens I own. I basically use these more to protect the lens and have never really taken enough photographs without one to know if they make a difference. These can be considered as very inexpensively priced insurance items for your much more expensive lens.
Very reasonably priced. Very well made and terrific item. Tiffen is a great company and their products are top notch. Tiffen is one of the best companies and I have several filters made by them.
The Camera shop was right, this is the best filter on the market, Tiffen Rocks. Of Course, Amazon was the logical next stop and I spent less than 1/2 as much for this lens and it turns out it was worth the price I would have paid at the camera shop. I felt like a thief, but buying smart often seems like this, so I just enjoyed my purchase. I went to my local camera shop looking for a filter that would give me the deep blue skies and the nice green landscapes. The 58mm Tiffen was the recommendation but the costs was $70 and that was a bit more than I really wanted to spend.
