4.0 out of 5 stars Nice, solid filters for the price, December 27, 2008

This review is from: Opteka HD² Filter Kit for Sony Handycam HDR-UX1 UX10 UX20 SR1 HC62 HC52 HC96 HC3 DCR-SR42 SR45 SR65 SR85 SR220 SR10 Camcorder (Electronics)
Since I'm a novice photographer, I usually look for less expensive peripherals that get the job done while keeping costs down so I can buy as much equipment as possible. If I decide to get more serious about making videos I'll upgrade later. That said, I purchased the Opteka filter kit based on prior reviews of others. I find them to be solid, far from what I'd consider to be cheap knock-offs, and they appear to perform satisfactorily. A very good buy, in my opinion.

4.0 out of 5 stars Improve Your Movies and Stills, June 13, 2008

This review is from: Opteka HD² Filter Kit for Sony Handycam HDR-UX1 UX10 UX20 SR1 HC62 HC52 HC96 HC3 DCR-SR42 SR45 SR65 SR85 SR220 SR10 Camcorder (Electronics)
For amateurs who own one of the listed Sony Handycams. These filters are very low cost and are sure to improve your picture taking.

The haze filter reduces haze for sharper landscape images. It also can be left on the camera to cover the lens. This means you don't have to remember to operate the built-in lens cover so the camera is ready to take pictures as soon you turn it on.

The polarizing filter is used to reduces nonmetallic glare. It can also darken the sky, bringing out the beauty of clouds.

The pink-ish filter creates a warmer lighting effect and is especially useful for indoor photography under cold light sources - such as fluorescent lighting.

The uv and polarizer filters worked very well on my recent trip to Kauai. There was minimal glare even through the window of the helecopter and nice saturation of the colors of the ocean, sky, and mountains with the polarizer. Colors with the UV filter were also very nice.

Items work as advertised. Great fun to be able to use a polaroid filter on a HandyCam! Really makes clouds pop out of the sky.

Pros: cheap and you get what you payed for. Nice fix to lightings in the sun and indoor lighting
Con: can get stuck but use a nicely sized wrench and will get them unstuck. They are fragile so use them nicely and keep in case nicely and clean
Great buy!!! I would buy them again!
