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.

 What Junk July 20, 2008
DO NOT BUY THIS JUNK... spend a little more and get better quality. I wish I'd read these reviews first. They mention that the threads on this filter are not well made... I put it on the camera and couldn't get it off. Took ten minutes to loosen it. I tried again...this time not tightening it. Same problem. It is in the trash. I wouldn't even give it away.

Everyone should have a UV filter screwed onto the end of each of their lenses. It's a lot cheaper to replace one of these when it gets scratched than a lense. This does what it's supposed to do.
 Could be better July 13, 2008
The filter itself is fine. But the package is horrible. It is not air tight and there is no plastic bag to protect the filter.
So you can image how much dusts can get on it during shipping and handling. Actually, I had to clean the dusts on the filter by myself before I could use it!

THESE ARE GREAT LITTLE $7 PIECES TO PROTECT A $200 PLUS LENS. IF IT GETS SCRATCHED JUST REPLACE THE $7 FILTER, NOT THE WHOLE $200 PLUS LENSE. IT WORKS GREAT.
Great filter for the price July 7, 2008

I purchased this filter with the sole purpose of keeping my lens clear of scratches, knowing that if a scratch does occur, I can replace the filter for less than $10 rater than replacing a $180 lens. Once I added the filter, however, I noticed that my outdoor pictures seemed much crisper and clearer than before. This is a great deal for the price.
