Product Description
Film, as well as video, often exhibits a greater sensitivity to what is to us invisible, ultraviolet light. This is most often outdoors, especially at high altitudes, where the UV-absorbing atmosphere is thinner; and over long distances, such as marine scenes. It can show up as a bluish color cast with color film, or it can cause a low-contrast haze that diminishes details, especially when viewing far-away objects, in either color or black-and-white. Ultraviolet filters absorb UV light generally without affecting light in the visible region. It is important to distinguish between UV-generated haze and that of air-borne particles, such as smog. The latter is made up of opaque matter that absorbs visible light as well as UV, and will not be appreciably removed by a UV filter.The UV Protector shields lens from dust, moisture, scratches, and breakage.

Good filter, wrong size July 17, 2008
I have nothing but good things to say for these filters; they have saved many a lense from damage. However, I purchased this as a set with a SIGMA 70-300 zoom lense; when it popped up as associated I did not think twice about getting one for the lense. What did not occur to me was that it was not the correct size - the filter advertised was 52mm, the lense needed a 58mm. Luckily, I did have another lense that needed a filter, but this was still a bit frustrating. Again, good filter, but do not assume that Amazon.com puts the right items together all the time.
 Good protection and UV filter July 15, 2008
The filter fits perfectly with my Nikon D60 18-55mm lens. And it does its job. My pictures of sky and clouds are very clear without haze. Most of all, I think it is a good investment for your expensive lens. I put it on my Nikon D60 right after I took the camera out of the box for the first time and I keep it on all the time. I have to mention the Amazon customer service. It is unbeatable! When I put my order for the D60, I realize that I should have combined this order with the camera to get free shipping. I called the customer service and they helped me to get a free standard shipping for this order because I just ordered Nikon D60. So this order even came before my D60! (I used super saver shipping for D60, which takes longer time.)
Good protection for your lens June 21, 2008
Ever since I got into digital photography, I never used special filters for any photographic effects. Seems like it is easier to use Photoshop to apply the different effects versus constantly changing filters. But the traditional UV filter works great as protection for the camera lens. I would rather get a smudge or a scratch on a couple dollar filter than on a couple hundred dollar lens.
UV protector for Canon lens June 4, 2008
Great price for this item. Works well with my wife's canon digital EOS camera.
