Customer Ratings & Reviews

I use UV filters on all my lenses as lens protectors. I was excited that Best Buy decided to carry Hoya, because tests have shown that Hoya filters let more light through than any others. So I bought for all my best lenses. Besides lens protection these filters also help reduce glare and stay cleaner easier...See attached pix. Two other good reasons besides basic lens protection. So yes I absolutely recommend them.

Good protection for the lent. Easy to clean. I like.

good quality, light and good protection. It's easy to use.

This filter allows natural light in and I can just wipe away the rain drops or dust all while protecting my lens. It gives me peace of mind knowing that my expensive lens is protected. I once dropped the filter and it didn't break, which proved it that it is made from a strong material.

On my 24-70mm 2.8 lens, I put this UV Filter on there and the pictures are as clear as I didn't have a filter. Expense UV Filter but it's worth it and worth to protect your investment.

Excellent filter and does not impact the image quality

Great lens filter for both protection and image quality. Hoya is one of the best filter companies and I always buy Hoya when I can.

This item is a 2-in-1: it’s both a filter and a lens protector. For the price, I think it’s great because I know my camera lens will be protected. It is very easy to install out of the wrapping. Just twist it on the lens and... voila!

Love that this filter is anti static, and its shallow profile makes it acceptable for wider angle lenses. It is very light and feels sturdy. The filter threads properly unlike cheap imitations. It also has virtually no effect on exposure.

Filter absorbs ultraviolet light and antistatic coating help to repel dust. Perfectly fits on my Nikon lens providing excellent protection to keep lens glass scratch free. I have not noticed any distortion caused by filter.

Hoya is the go to brand for me and I love this filter. I have it paired with my new Sony f/2.8 16-35mm GM lens and it works great. Easy to install in seconds.

So happy with this UV filter. I had bought an inexpensive filter for my new lens. However dust was constantly sticking to this filter. Also after a few uses, it soon had many fine stratches on the filter. Over time this was affecting the image quality of my photos. At a photography course, the instructer recommended spending money to get a good UV filter. Reason: it is always on the camera so you use it every time you shoot. I had a great lens that was being degraded by a poor quality UV filter. So I took the plunge and bought this filter. What a difference! Any dust is easily puffed away. No stratches. Nice clean photos!

2nd one! 1st one broke saving my 16-35 mm in Grand Canyon saving me lot of money

Perfect fit for my Nikkor 24-70mm ED f2.8 VR. Good quality. It does what it claims and it protects my lens from scratches.

Not much to review. It's just a UV filter and it threads on correctly. No cloudiness or any other problems. Dust hasn't had time to stick, so anti static hasn't come into play. Like I said, not much to review.

This is a great UV filter to protect an 82mm lens.

I absolutely recommend this for all of your lenses. It will take all the abuse and protect your expensive glass. Best part is that it doesn't increase the chance of chromatic aboration

This filter works well and fits well without adding too much bulk to the top of the lens. Very good quality.

I bought this only to protect a new lens (something I am beginning to question as a regular strategy). However, it is rated to pass-through a very high percentage of light and doesn't seem to degrade images (from my limited experimentation). And, it's way cheaper than a new lens (although it isn't "cheap" by any means). If you are determined to protect a lens, this is probably the way to go (DO NOT BUY A CHEAP FILTER - it will detract from your images and reduce the *speed* of your expensive lens).

easy to install, I have it on my 20-70 Gmaster do not reflect back well contruction for a $100 piece of glass protect very well a 2,100.00 lent.
