I have several Hoya filters for various lenses. This 86mm UV filter fit perfectly on my new Sigma 150-500mm zoom lens. With such a large surface on the front of the lens I didn't want to take a chance of scratching it or worse. The UV filter
protects the lens and provides added clarity to images. This is a high quality filter with mutliple coatings and a sturdy metal ring. It's worth the money.

I do a lot of wildlife photography and having this filter on my lens gives me peace of mind that my front lens element isn't going to be scratched when I'm out in the woods and heavy brush. And that peace of mind is worth every penny that I paid for this filter.

You are most likely wondering why I chose this brand of filter. The reason is that Hoya has a reputation for quality at a reasonable price. And so far, I haven't been disappointed.

This is a an excellent UV filter. The price is good, and the quality is very good. I highly recommend this product.

A must-have for a lens this big.

At that large diameter, the lens is a virtual dust and fingerprint magnet - the filter is so much easier to clean or replace.

I purchased this item for my Sigma 50-500mm lens. I had a thin UV filter before that repeatedly got misthreaded when placed on and so I threw that one out. The filter threaded on smoothly and the UV part of it works great too.

The fliter arrived much earlier than expected, and was of high quality. I'm pleased.

A lot of money for a piece of glass in a threaded metal ring, but it does the job it's intended to do.
