Lens protector [Posted on 2008-11-29] Great choice for everyday use: protects your lens from scratches and almost doesn't impact the image colors
Great [Posted on 2008-12-03] Using this on my Canon f/1.8 50mm lens, it's fantastic. Great price, great quality, can't go wrong.
Essentials Kit - inexpensive for a reason. [Posted on 2008-12-11] Not bad really, just on the cheaper side. UV does what is says, although there can be some excessive flare if not careful since it is not coated. 812 I have not used (not really needed these days on Digitals), Polarizing feels somewhat gritty when turning.
All in all it's a get what you pay for scenario. Probably fine for casual shooters, but I have already decided against buying Tiffen in the future...in fact I have bought several Hoya Multi-Coated UV's and the difference is night and day. I may return these depending on the process - they came from a third party vendor and it may not be worth the trouble.
Summary - they work, but if you really care about your pics and gear step up to Hoya or Heliopan or similar.
Gets the job done [Posted on 2008-12-17] I am using this cover on a nikkor 50mm 1.8 lens. Been using it for about 4 months. It does what it should protect my lens. It is built tough, glass and metal, not plastic. Tiffen is a great brand. Price was low also.
Where has my lens been? [Posted on 2008-12-24] I found the protective lens was covered with find dusts when I twristed on the 50mm lens. The root cause was there is no wrapping outside of the hard plastic case. As I contacted Amazon customer service, the options to me were to return-for-refund or to exchange.
