This is a Neutral Clear lens designed for keeping your lens intact.

Most people should know that DSLR lens have a protective coating which wears away slightly every time you clean the lens. As such, most people usually buy a UV filter to cover the lens.

This lens is as clear as invisible. I place it on a sheet of white paper and see no discolorations at all. If there wasn't a black ring and simply the glass, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't notice it.

I recommend this for everyone who's looking to protect their lens. Lens are more expensive than camera bodies most of the time, so preserving them would be in the best interest of anyone who is interested in doing photography with DSLR cameras.

I've purchased this in 52mm and 67mm, and both are very much crystal clear, multi-coated. If you don't want a UV filter, you can get this one instead.

I intend to use it for Nikon 8400 with a a step up adapter. Promaster uv filter that it is replacing causes vignetting. Eventhough nikon uv is not advertised as thin filter, it causes virtually no vignetting. Its vignetting is visible only if you digitally zoom by 10x as a small shadow in left corner. This feedback is not relevant for other cameras except when vignetting might be an issue.
