5 Stars Best Filter I have ever had
I have bought Tiffen and Quantaray filters in the past (it is what was suggested by the folks at the brick and mortar that I bought my first lens) and was OK with these filters until I saw the quality of the B&W. They do not even remotely compare.

Yes, the B&W is more expensive but if you spent good money on great glass and then cover it with a filter that does not do it justice, where did you waste the money.

Highly recommended.

5 Stars Excellent build quality
I’m no professional photographer, and I was very hesitant in spending the extra money on this filter just to protect my L series lens. However, shortly after receiving in the mail, I gotta say it felt very “real” versus its tiffen counterpart. To top things off, the glass itself is top-notch and you can surely see the difference between the two in a side-by-side comparison of your shots. Very crisp and very clean!

5 Stars A High Quality Filter
My primary use for this filter is for lens protection. I was unhappy with the Canon UV filter as there were areas of bare metal on the one I purchased. I am very happy with the B&W. No shiny bare metal spots and a noticeably better build quality all around. You pay a bit extra but it is well worth it.

3 Stars B+W UV Haze Filter #10
Good quality filter, however, it does impart a slight loss in the quality of the pictures, ie. a slight loss of saturation and less contrast. Also, if you use this with zoom lens and taking pictures with distant scenes with haze, dont expect miracles since I did not see any differences in haze reduction! I’m thinking that may be I dont have to more $$$ than I did on this filter, may be a Hoya UV filter should suffice if I just want to protect your lens…I’ll get the Hoya UV filter next time and see if it provides the less of a picture quality loss. I was a little disappointed with this filter since there was some very positive reviews on this filter. FYI, I’m using this filter for my 70-200 F2.8L IS USM and 24-105mm F4L IS USM lens. Since these are expensive lenses, that is why I spent more money on this filter, however, from what I read, Hoya also makes excellent high quality filters and less expensive.

5 Stars No sacrifices
I purchased this filter along with a Canon 24-105L lens. Knowing that I had an very expensive high end lens, I did not want to put a lesser quality filter on it. I had used B&W filters before and found them to be absolutely pure.
