Product Description
These filters are used by many photographers to protect the front element of their lens from abrasions, dust, and moisture. They also have a very subtle warming effect, which can be useful to counter the "cool" colors you sometimes get in bright sun or in shade. They're available in sizes to fit most EF lenses. TYPE: Screw-in

 Well made & feels solid November 16, 2008
Smooth threads which turn like silk. No complaints here. Seems like a well made product.
good lense protection October 28, 2008
I found this helpful in keeping the actual lenses clean and protected when I had to take my camera into the field for a series of photo shoots. I can't vouch for the UV filter but protection of the lense was the reason for my purchase.
Good but don't see much difference August 7, 2008
I am using this UV filter for around an year along with my Canon G9. To be true don't see much difference in the output with the filter. The price of canon is always much more compared to the others. I would recommend you to explore other filters that would be cheap and would serve your purpose.
Better protect that lense. July 29, 2008

If your a newbie to DSL's like I am and you read to better your skill's, you can see it mentioned often "-to put on a protective filter over your expensive lense." I got one like this with a camera bag/kit and ordered up another one for my telephoto. It's glass/clear and has a metal ring. I'm not real sure about the haze part of this description but think Safety Glasses for your lenses. The price isn't all that bad, I don't think.
Canon UV-1 filter for the win July 28, 2008

The quality of this product is very good. Feels much nicer than some of the cheap alternatives. I can't really say for sure how much this helps reduce the so called "haze" but I will say that it's definitely reassuring to have a protective layer between the outside world and your expensive lenses. I would recommend this product for any one who has a lens that they value.
