Product Description
Protect your camera lens from ultraviolet light while boosting your artistic possibilities with the Tiffen Photo Essentials filter kit. The kit--which includes an ultraviolet filter, circular polarizer, and warming filter--is an ideal accessory for photographers with 58mm filter diameters. The ultraviolet filter prevents UV light from reaching the lens, helping increase clarity and reduce haze. As a result, your photos look crystal clear even in mountainous and coastal areas, where ultraviolet light is particularly strong. The circular polarizer, meanwhile, is essential for outdoor photography, as it deepens the intensity of blue skies and reduces or eliminates glare. (Note that the circular polarizer is designed expressly for autofocus cameras.) Finally, the kit offers an exclusive color warming filter that improves the color of all skin tones. Ideal for portraits, the color warming filter absorbs the blue cast often caused by electronic flashes or outdoor shade, adding warmth to pale, washed-out flesh tones. As a bonus, the kit includes a pouch for filter storage. Includes: Circular Polarizer, 812 Warming Filter, UVP, 4 filter pouch.

 So-so November 19, 2008
The only thing this filter is good for is protecting the lens from physical damage (dust, prints, scratches, water spots, etc.) Some say that cheap Tiffen filters degrade the quality of the images, but I haven't noticed any degradation. 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. It's better to crack this filter than crack your lens.
Simple UV Protector November 9, 2008
It's just a protection filter. 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 also has a weird glass finish in the edges that make it look cheap (even though it is)
 can't beat it for the price November 4, 2008
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. I have one of these on every lens I own.
Very nice filter November 2, 2008
Very well made and terrific item. Tiffen is one of the best companies and I have several filters made by them. Very reasonably priced. Tiffen is a great company and their products are top notch!
Tiffen Circular Polarizer - This Rocks November 2, 2008
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.
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.
The Camera shop was right, this is the best filter on the market, Tiffen Rocks.
