Product Description

The Tiffen 72CP 72MM Circular Polarizer is a sophisticated accessory that selects which light rays enter your camera lens. Once reflected, light rays become polarized, often with undesirable effects. Polarizers remove unwanted reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water or glass, and also saturate colors, improving contrast.

Customer Reviews

Very poor quality, do not buy this (see below)
I purchased this filter from Amazon based on positive reviews I read here. The filter is very poorly made, I am shocked that so many rated this highly. Normally the reviews on Amazon are accurate indicators of quality. The glass in this filter is not fixed, in fact it doesn't fit properly. The glass moves back and forth in the casing,it is as though the filter housing was made for a much thicker piece of glass. As others have written it was also very dirty as though it had been handled. I'm guessing somebody else was unhappy and returned it.

I have experience with Hoya filters and have always been pleased with their build quality. I have returned the Tiffen filter as of today and ordered the Hoya. I find the filters great for both the protection they provide and function they serve.

Ti 72mm UV Protection Filter a Great Buy!
I purchased this UV filter for use with my Nikon D300. I am very satisfied with the results. I recommend this seller and would purchase again from the seller due to great pricing, accuracy in product description and quick shipping.

UV Protection Filter does it's job
Ordered this filter from Amazon after I bought my camera. Wish I had purchased it when I bought my lens. The nice thing about a filter is you can worry more about taking pictures and less about protecting your lens. Good price and no noticeable picture degradation when using this filter. Just used this filter in Hawaii and it protected my lens from the salty sea air near the beach. Definitely recommend getting a cleaning kit to accompany the filter.
