  • The illusive HOYA UV(C) filter
Size: 52mm
I have been on a quest to find the real hoya filter (I meant made in Philippines, since HMC UV(C) 52mm - Japan doesn't make then anymore), specifically the 52mm UV(C) filter since most of my lenses are 52mm. After going over good reviews, thought this might be the one, but I am still confused. Simple test for Multicoat filter: Put the filter on a white sheet of paper on a table. Light up a daylight lamp (as a photographer with SLR lens you would have one :)) above the filter and try to look at the reflection of the light, you'll see either the same 'White' light or other colors in the reflection. Typically different color means multicoated (unless I am wrong!) HOYA UV(C) 1: This Reseller: ---------------------------- The packaging seems nice, the printing is not faded appears to be Genuine. But, there is no where in the filter it says it is made in Philippines!! Not on the box, not on the filter. I was very disheartened. Then when I took a look at the reflection of the filter, it showed "Green" reflection. From my research this should be Genuine. Wow!! what is going on. Is this real...? I am thinking positively. If anyone have any clues, please comment. HOYA UV(C) 2: Another Reseller (claiming to be genuine hoya online reseller - yeah! its ebay): --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The packaging seems nice, an exact replica of the reseller from this Amazon - EXCEPT - it did say it is made in Philippines!! both on the box and on the filter. And to add to the confusion, it showed "Blue" reflection of light. So WTH is going on!!! I wish I knew. Are they both real. I would love to think so. I wish I knew. Please comment if anyone have any clue!! HOYA UV(C) 3: Another Reseller: ------------------------------ This one also showed Philippines, but I can clearly see the white reflection of the light, clearly a fake I wasted my money on!! Conclusion: Well.. I am still confused. LOL.. All of the above almost costs the same money. I am giving the benefit of the doubt and giving it a 4. But I'll go for Nikon NC next time, so that I don't have spend time behind finding real/fake. The company HOYA should post a way to identify their product from fake. Their website is a joke. For a popular filter company HOYA - they really suck at Marketing. ... show more

  • If you don't have these on your lens, you better get one...read why...
Size: 52mm
OK, I am NOT a professional photographer, completely amateur here. I just operate with a normal Nikon D40 and 3 lenses. At the online recommendation by Ken Rockwell (pretty cool guy), I got UV filters for all my lenses. One of the stated reasons was to protect the lens from damage, which I did not give as much credit to as the reduced glare, etc. that is, until last week when my significant other hooked the camera strap and yanked the camera off the table to land lens-down on the floor. Urg. I thought that was the end of the lens right there. However, the Hoya UV filter i had installed saved the lens. the filter ring, which evidently is soft metal, folded just enough to absorb some of the impact. after taking 10 minutes to pull the shattered glass out of the ring and fold the ring in to get it off the lens, I discover the lens is in fine shape, no scratches on the lens glass. so, I would say the $15 to $20 you spend could save you from busting a $200 or $400 lens. Additional note: when I lost the lens cap on a hayride, I didnt' have to buy another one because I had the UV filter on there to keep from scratching my lens surface. another good use... RECOMMENDATION: Buy new. Warning: I've noticed a lot of reviewers have complained about knockoffs. Only buy DIRECTLY from Amazon, not one of the fulfilled by Amazon or other marketing partners, or buy from the camera website that also starts with A (can't mention them here). Amazon buys from Hoya, so you won't be buying a knockoff if you make sure it is SOLD BY AND FULFILLED BY AMAZON. ... show more

  • Consistently rated among the best
Size: 52mm
I like to keep a UV filter on my lenses. I've read why digital cameras don't need one. I use one because I like to travel, backpack and kayak. I would much rather clean a filter than the front lens of my camera as well as protect the front camera lens from sand, spray, etc. etc. This lens is consistently rated as one of the best for anti glare and optical quality. Willing to pay a bit more for those qualities. The surprise was this lens was shipped from Amazon UK. Took a couple weeks to arrive. Not a major issue, but a surprise. ... show more

  • Good daylight, bad at night
Size: 77mm
I bought the Hoya 77mm UV Multi-coated filter to protect the Canon 70-200mm 2.8L IS II lens. It works fine and unobtrusively most of the time, but it falls down badly at night. For example, I was taking some pictures of the Moon/Venus/Jupiter conjunction the other night, and when I got the pictures loaded onto the PC and looked at them, there's a greenish ghostly reflection of the crescent moon in all the images. At first I blamed the lens - I had forgotten I even had the filter on - but I noticed the filter and decided to try a comparison. So I went back out and took a series of pictures both with and without the filter. Without the filter, no reflections. With the filter, the same mirror image greenish "ghost" of the moon was in every picture. So, why spend all that money on a premium lens if you'll take pictures through a cheap filter that degrades the image? I'll see if I saved one of the reflective "ghost" pictures and post it here if I did. It really stands out and ruins an otherwise good shot. Hopefully I have one of the comparison shots as well. Update: I posted a picture with the green ghost from the filter on the product page. http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B00009R9EO/ref=cm_ciu_pdp_images_0?ie=UTF8&index=0 I paid a lot of money for the 70-200mm 2.8L IS II lens, and using this filter at night wastes it. I haven't noticed any daytime issues, but I'm actively looking for a better protective filter that I can leave on the lens at all times. Even if it costs $100 or more, it's still cheap compared to the lens. ... show more
