About this product

Product Information

Todays high quality lenses have precision front lens elements that can be easily scratched or damaged during normal use and cleaning. A UV filter simply screws into the filter threads on the front of your lens and remains there permanently for protection and improved color rendition. Why should I buy a Vivitar UV filter when others might be less expensive? When you have taken the time effort and expense to obtain the higher quality images that a DSLR can provide don’t compromise your results with Protector No Name High Definition Hi Resolution filters that are available at prices that seem too good to be true. The low quality components construction and quality control of a bargain priced filter can degrade sharpness create distortion and lower your overall image quality. Key Features: For digital video and photo Provide more accurate color May be kept on your lens at all times More than just a Protector it absorbs UV light to reduce excessive blue and haze Front threads allow attachment of other filters and accessories Protects lens from dust moisture fingerprints scratches and impact For over 70 years Vivitar has been recognized as a manufacturer of quality optics and photo accessories What is the difference between a UV filter and a Protector? A UV filter not only offers protection but is capable of removing enough Ultra Violet light to reduce excessive blue and haze to clearly improve your images. Protectors offer protection but no UV filtration capability and its optical quality is no better than plain window glass. A UV filter will filter out unwanted UV light and prevent a UV fogging/haze effect which can result in inaccurate color and lower the apparent sharpness. When shooting outside without a UV filter white areas often will show a bluish tint and skin tones can appear less natural and cool looking. Furthermore when you shoot at distances there is more UV light between you and the subject than when close. This can introduce a UV haze effect and result in less than optimum image sharpness. When should I use a UV filter? The most recommended of filters a UV can be kept on a lens at all times inside or outside daylight or flash black-and-white or color telephoto wide angle or zoom lens film or digital still or video photography… no matter what your camera or lens type. A lens protected by a UV filter can often survive intact when the filter absorbs the trauma of the impact. It also makes it easier and less expensive to have to clean or replace a badly scratched or damaged filter than your camera’s lens.

    Vivitar UV filter

    This is a UV filter.Seems to be nice and clear , well made and fits the threads easily . For most, it is just some insurance that the front elements of your lens will not get smashed. Simple as that. Not rocket science in this case !!

    Ghosting

    It's okay as protection for the lens but ghosting is awful. If there is any light in front of the lens when shooting indoors or outside a night the filter needs to come off, way too much refection. Also shooting indoors with available light makes my lens hunt for focus. Take it off and focuses fine. Not a cheap lens either, it's a Nikon 16-80. Seems to work fine outside in good light so I'll use it for daytime protection and remove it for challenging light situations. Always used Hoyas in the past, tried to save a few bucks. Will probably order a Hoya and keep it for situation that may be detrimental to the coatings on the Hoya. It's a $7 filter, you get what you pay for.

  • Well made

    Well packaged and protected so no damage in shipping. A camera filter is a simple item and it should be easy to install. Some filters have rough threads or inadequate outer rings that are difficult to grasp. None of this was the case.

  • Title says vivitar usa received precision design made in china

    Did not receive what was in the item description. Received a chinese uv lense filter not vivitar. Picture oackage does not match item description. Some cheap knockoff in my opinion.
