5.0 out of 5 stars Protection for a Lumix FZ18 lens, February 24, 2008

By	John H. Russell - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Panasonic does not say what size filter can be attached to the lens of my FZ18 camera.They have their own filter but at a much higher price. This filter seems to do the job and seems well made. Pictures shot at 18X don't seem to loose much definition.Colors appear warmer. Now I have protection for my Leica Lens. Excellent price too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great filter for the price., March 20, 2007

By	S. Patten "Cooee Dingo" (Melbourne, Australia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a great little filter for the price and you won't be disappointed with its performance.
Not all of us are serious professionals and the differences between a $100 and a $5 filter well to us amateurs is $95.
Get the protection and not the hole in your wallet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good bargain , November 22, 2007

By	Yaron Reshef "Yaron" (Frederica DE USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It is a good bargain. The filter protects the camera's lens and approves pictures quality in bright light and sunny days.
