B+W 72mm UVA Ultra Violet Haze Filter #010

worth its money ..
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
i got this filter for my canon 200mm f/2.8 .. i initially got the canon 72mm filter for it not convinced i should invest more in a protective layer of glass.. but i noticed that the canon filter was more prone to haze.. i can even feel that its not very clear if you look through it.. but when i bought another L lens i got a B&W 77mm filter with it and it was perfect.. i can instantly tell it is clearer and less prone to flare and haze.. the B&W is also slimmer . i replaced my canon 72mm filter with a B&W. the difference is noticable in image contrast .. you can even see better through the filter into the lens than with the canon mounted.. its also alot thinner … if you are thinking is 40 bucks alot for a filter that basically does nothing : yes it is .. if somethin hits the front element or you are in bad weather you would freak out .. you pay the extra money to make sure it does exactly nothing..
