5.0 out of 5 stars High quality filter, awesome price, December 2, 2008

By	Nathan J. Jandl (Burlington, VT) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I got these filters for $4.95/per and I couldn't be happier. I have used B&W filters in the past, and while these are not quite in the same league, they are awfully close. Well-built, good multicoating, what more can you ask? If my Sigma 50mm macro is any indication, Sigma knows a thing or two about making glass. If you need something affordable and high quality, look no further. I see absolutely no difference between these and the more common Hoya S-HMC filters (which I also own).

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT FILTER, EXCELLENT PRICE!, July 11, 2008

By	J. LEZONDRA "JON" (Willowbrook, IL USA) - See all my reviews

It is a known fact with photo enthusiast that Sigma is a fine maker of lenses. This also holds true for this filter. It is well built, sturdy with a high quality glass, perfect if you want to protect the lens of your camera without spending a hefty amount on filters. Plus it does UV filtering too without any degradation on your pictures. Can be kept always screwed in your lens. Overall, it is a best buy, highly recommended.

Great price compared to retail stores. Fit perfect and does the job. I purchased this mainly to protect the lens surface, plus I get UV filtering too.
