Tiffen Lens Filter

[43 mm] As always tiffen delivers a polarizing filter at an amazing price. I have one for every lens I own

[UV] The Tiffen UV filter is awesome. It produces the lens without distriortion of color

[72 mm] I really enjoyed this filter. Tiffen was always my favorite and this is no exception.

[0.31 lb] This $48 filter/lens purchased instead of Pentax's $600 portrait(50mm)lens. I thought I might give Tiffen a call when going through B&H's on line cat. I saw diffusion filters. They were several strengths as their are in the Soft Fx series. I called Tiffen direct & was advised to get a Soft FX3 when photographing older people with wrinkles. The rain finally stopped in OR. I tested the filter yesterday. I found that the longer the focal length & as expected the larger the f/stop the better. So using the filter on my 50-to-200mm lens @ almost 200mm is fantastic! On the pro's option below, I was surprised at how easy it was to still be able to focus the camera w/ filter attached. I used auto focus with no problem.

[82C] The use of an 81A warming filter was recommended to me by a pro photographer and this lens by Tiffen did not disappoint. It really enhanced the contrast between a blue sky and the images. With good lighting, the addition of this lens made some of the images appear as though it was 3-D. The lens was clear and crisp. This was a great addition.

[0.85 lb] The Tiffen Skylight 1-A filter is optically clean and works as it's supposed to. I use it to protect the front lens surface.

[0.5 lb] Tiffen makes in my opinion the best lens filters and viewing filters. This Contrast- Color viewing filter is not the exception. It has a great built quality, is very solid and it gets the job done if you know how to use it properly. It was designed for film faster that 200 ISO but it could be use with digital. It got delivered sooner than the expected date.

[Black] Initially, I was ready to return this lens, because when I carefully compared image quality with tripod mounted images, they were the same as my old Pentax 55-300 mm zoom at 300 mm. The problem was the Tiffen UV filter NOT the lens. I am going to return (or toss in the trash) the Tiffen filter. Really love the lens from 10 days of taking pictures with it. It is heavy, but beautiful bird and moon photos. Worth the hassle of lugging it for me.

[43 mm] I got this lens in the Tiffen 55mm Digital Enhancing Filter Kit and love it. it brings out fall colors even when the eye can't see them and makes those you can see much more robust. I intend to buy this for each of my lenses. The Camp Road picture I have added was taken last Fall (2021) and to be honest the colors last year were not very good, this filter make the picture turn out much better than it would have without it pulling color from where there was little.
