1.0 out of 5 stars Too good to be true? Yep., May 15, 2009

I was somewhat skeptical about the quality of this set, considering name-brand multicoated UV filters alone are twice as much as this set. I was right to be skeptical.

The UV filter is very thin glass and is not antireflective - aside from the strong reflections being a dead giveaway, you don't see any of the green or purple tinge you usually see on antireflective coatings.

The circular polarizer barely works... you do get slightly better color, but not nearly as much as a name brand filter. If you point it at the right place in the sky you might get about 20% of the darkening a Tiffen circular polarizer gives you.

I didn't bother trying the fluorescent filter... couldn't figure out why it was included anyway, since all digital cameras have automatic white balance.

Save your money, buy something else.

1.0 out of 5 stars Definitely too good to be true., August 14, 2009

By	DSLR Shooter (Baton Rouge, LA USA) - See all my reviews

Zeikos ZE-FLK77 77mm Multi-Coated 3 Piece Filter Kit (UV-CPL-FLD) claim to be muti-coated, but I just don't see it. These things reflect light like little mirrors. They flare horribly and are basically trash.

The only (just barely) useful filter in the trio is the CPL. It does cut down on reflections on glass, but not nearly as much as my 20 year old Tiffen. The best thing about it is that the CPL only eats about 1 stop compared t the 2 stops of my Tiffen.

It would be best to avoid Zeikos ZE-FLK77 77mm Multi-Coated 3 Piece Filter Kit (UV-CPL-FLD), even if they were free.

The lens came in a nice little leather looking box. However, on the outer side of the lens where you screw the lens in, it was scratched. I think it was either a returned/second hand product.....
