Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
This is the first time I have used a UV and a polarizing filter, so I can't make comparisons. The filters screw easily on to the lens and the sun-shade lens cover of my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50. The polarizing filter is easy to turn and noticeable color and light shades are most apparent when focusing on snow or water. For the price, they are worth it.
The threaded section of the filter is too short. If your lens or filter adapter has threads that are recessed by more than 1/16 of an inch, this filter can't be securely fastened. Other than that, the quality of the filters is ok.
