Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Dimensions?

A: The dimensions are: 11.26 (W) x 0.43 (D) x 5.83 (H) Weight: 1.32 lbs. And the Length is 5ft.

Q: 2. Does this or any 52mm filter accept a Nikon lens cap to cover it?

A: Yes, the lens cover will fit. Buy the filter and enjoy. I believe you should have UV filters on all lenses. I would much rather shatter a filter than my lens. I speak from experience.

Q: 3. Am I able to use my lens hood with this filter on the sony 200-600mm?

A: Yes, you will be able to use your lens hood with the Tiffen 95mm Coarse Thread UV Protector Filter on the Sony FE 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS Lens.

Q: 4. does this rotate independently of the lens?

A: I am not sure what you exactly mean... but I can tell you this. The filter screws on to the lens.

Q: 5. What is the thread pitch of this filter? Is it 0.75mm?

A: I never worried about the pitch of the threads since the filter fit all my Canon DSLR cameras. Your best bet is to call one of the B&H reps. Their advice has never failed me.

Q: 6. Will this fit sigma 24-70mm art lens, sony mount? Thank you

A: As the Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Art Lens for Sony E has 82mm front filter threads, yes, you may use the Tiffen 82mm UV Protector Filter on the front of the Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Art Lens for Sony E.

Q: 7. Will this fit on the Olympus 25 mm f/1.8?

A: Is this the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 25mm f/1.8 Lens? If so, that lens takes a 46mm filter

Q: 8. Does this have external or internal threads? I need to screw it into an adapter.

A: Yes, it has front and back 67mm threads.

Q: 9. Does the Tiffen 62UVP protect the lens from liquid splatter?

A: The Tiffen 62mm UV Protector Filter, B&H # TIUVP62, would protect the lens from direct liquid splatter. However, do note the filter is not waterproof. In the event of liquid splatter, it is recommended to wipe off the filter (and/or lens) as soon as possible. If you plan to be around splattering liquid, you may also consider purchasing a rain cover such as the Ruggard Fabric Rain Shield Small (14"), B&H # RURCFC714, or the Ruggard RC-P18 Rain Cover for DSLR with Lens up to 18" (Pack of 2), B&H # RURCP18, in addition to the UV Protection filter, or an underwater housing compatible for use with your camera.

Q: 10. will this filter fit a xf100?

A: Round ('circular') filters are characterized by their thread diameter, so you should select those whose thread diameter is the same as that of your lens(es). (The thread diameter of your lens is NOT the same as its focal length!)

[0.18 lb] So I have used the GlimmerGlass series a lot as a large matte-box filter on the cinema cameras. But sometimes I go and shoot inserts on a lighter setup with my FX6 and a Zoom lens. For that purpose this filter is absolutely perfect. If the 1/2, 3/4 and 1/4 become available as 82mm filters I will purchase them.

[0.18 lb] Tiffen Filters are always the best when it comes to build quality, reliability and options they provide. I am super happy with my 2 Set of Glimmerglass!!:) They make the image naturally gloomy without washing out the entire scene.

Also B&H did a perfect job on shipping and customer contact! I live in Germany and my package arrived only 4 days after my order was placed. Thanks, you guts are the best!

[Glass] I was worried that a 1 strength would be really glow-y the way a promist would, but you only really see an obvious glow in very strong back-lit or high contrast conditions. Otherwise it's a very a very gentle touch on highlights and overall contrast.

Also the idea that a sparkly filter inspires confidence in a model is the silliest selling point I've ever heard, and my models laughed at the idea of it ... which got me some genuine smiles, so I guess there's that.

[Glass] Great filter for filmmakers , specially for modern photo lenses with over sharpness and 4k resolution

[Glass] Works well so far, and is less obscene than even 1/4 black pro mist can be. And price is fair. Now why do these filters cost 500% more in rectangular shape?

[72 mm] These are great little filters to add to your kit.

[0.18 lb] Adds a subtle glow and sheen to the image, really helps breath some organic life into even the most sterile digital cameras.

[Aluminum] Great diffusion filter that adds soft contrast to take off the digital edge while retaining sharpness. Would highly recommend over other diffusion filters.

[Aluminum] I don't usually use filters but I stumble upon a youtube video and was curious how they achieved the hazy look I was trying to achieve. I figured it was all done in post (which you can, albeit with varying results). So after Googlin' and researching I came across this specific filter. I should have prefaced that I mainly shoot images and occasional video.


The filtration is subtle (had to compare images taken under the same condition, see attached) but noticeable. This for sure will stay on my lens permanently!! GORGEOUS FILTER!

[0.18 lb] Any time I decide on diffusion filters, the biggest considerations for me are the strength of halation and the amount of contrast I'm looking for. I usually default to Hollywood Black Magic as my standard diffusion filter. When I want something stronger and a big more vintage feeling I'll reach for Black Pro Mist. When I want something much more subtle, I'll go for Glimmerglass because the halation is under much better control than the other two. I usually aim for a 1 strength when I want to see the effect. Even then, it doesn't feel too strong.
