Review 3 of 3
Summary: Good filters for the money and a comprehensive range of filters too. Where else can you find an IR filter? A hot mirror? An 812 warming filter? An ultra-contrast (amazing filter - it really works!)? A sepia? At any rate, they're terrific values and well-made filters. Don't let the "lack" of multi-coating put you off - just use a lens hood and save your money. Strengths: Consistency, regardless of filter size.
Uncoated glass surface doesn't need babying. Laminated construction doesn't delaminate in my experience, even with long and hard use. Weaknesses: Aluminum rings bind in polycarbonate filter threads.
Somewhat wider rings than other brands. Similar Products Used: Hoya, Hoya HMC/S-HMC, Nikon, B+W. Some Heliopans. Customer Service: Not needed, but their catalog is practically a filter primer.
