Chances are 99% that you have a decent lens with lots of anti-reflective coatings on it (even if you don't know it). All of the good quality filters also have these coatings. I was shocked to find that the Canon brand filters do not have any coatings. I was using this with my EF-S 17-85mm IS, and was getting reflections (green or hazy brown spots), vignetting, and also a noticeable reduction in light transmission and sharpness. Do a test - take 2 identical pictures with and without the filter - you'll see it. Spend the little extra cash on a better filter (e.g., Hoya, Tiffen).

During my purchase of a nice lens and hood, Amazon recommended this filter to go along with the set. I only assumed that the 67mm filter would fit the lens, but unfortunately it didn't. I also learned that the Canon brand of UV filter apparently aren't multi-coated (like the lenses are). I contacted the seller to get the right size and they presented the return process to me that sounded like a big headache and would cost me return postage. Oh well.

I use this 67mm Canon lens filter with my 100mm Macro F/2.8 IS L lens. This macro lens has a deep lens hood, which in and of itself blocks most unwanted light, so the need for a multi-coated filter wasn't great as it is for some of my other lenses.

The filter is available at a great price, and it works as expected. Fits just fine and protects the lens.

Would buy it again.

I'm using this on my canon 17-85mm lens and it's been great. My only issue was I purchased it from cambridgeworld who were less than reliable.

I don't really notice a difference in my pictures but this is a good layer of protection for your lenses. I don't leave home without it.

If you invest in an expensive lens for your camera you need to protect it . I choose canon because of the quality of there products so i am assured i would not be disappointed .

This Canon filter is very inexpensive and does an excellent job for what it's intended for (for me = protect the lens). With the hood on, I haven't had any problems with ghosting or image degradation.

I have purchased as replacement from my old filter (HOYA). It works well as a protector of the lens (EF-S 17-85mm IS). I have no concern.

I received my order on time. However, when I received the filter, the inside metal ring had popped out. I was able to put it back in easily and I attached it to my lens. It works fine with my Canon 30D camera. Now, in addition to the haze, my expensive canon lens is also protected from possible scratches. I would definitely recommend this lens just for the protection it provides at a low cost.

I have to give this item a 4 because it has flare and ghosting. I would buy a multicoating filter that will not have this problem. But it is a good Canon product.
