Product Description

Product Description
Lens filters are translucent pieces of glass placed in front of a camera lens to alter or adjust the light entering the camera, and more importantly to protect the camera lens. Lens filters improve photographs by giving you control over light and allowing you to emphasize the features of a scene that you consider most important. This filter kit is a combination of the three essential filters no photographer should be without. PLEASE NOTE: Some cameras require an adapter tube to fit the filters. This filter set is compatible with the following camera models: Nikon D40, D60

1.0 out of 5 stars Inexpensive generic lens set, save your money, December 26, 2008

By	P. Craig (NYC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a very generic lens set, with the quality you would expect at this price. The polarizer is particularly bad-if you want decent images with a polarizer, you need to spend the money for a good one. The pink lens is supposed to correct colors under fluorescent light, something any modern DSLR can do in software. I bought this kit just to have as spares, and ended up sending it back since it's just not useful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great filters and nice case, May 22, 2008

By	T. Wheatley - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The filters are great and the case is much smaller than I thought which makes it easy to fit into my camera bag.

Just FYI, if you've never put one on your camera (I hadn't), the filter is threaded. Just put the filter on your lens and rotate until it is snug.

It also allows for the Nikon lens cap to be applied.

I use the clear lens filter to protect the lens from dust, scratches, etc.

Great value and fairly heavy duty. It fits my 18-55mm lens just fin on my Nikon D60 camera.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Filters, Cheap Price, October 7, 2008

By	MntlyNSane (Chesterfield, VA) - See all my reviews

I bought these for my D40X. The fit perfectly onto the 18-55, and 55-200 lens. So far, I have been happy with getting them. They are of semi-decent quality, and definitely get the job done. The set comes with UV, FL, and Polarized Filter. The polarized filter does have a movable ring that allows you to adjust the intensity.

My shooting environment varies. I do outdoor shooting, indoor low light (in-laws REALLY need to invest into some brighter lights), and occasional long exposure night photography. Even with the filters on, I have never experienced any artifacting or negative impact to the photos.

If your like me, and pretty much just do amateur photography, and need a cheap set of simple filters to protect your lens and improve your pictures, you can't go wrong with these.
