My Review of Tiffen 77mm Wide Angle Filter Kit

(I bought and reviewed this in mig-2007. but I’m dating the review in 2006 for now so it doesn’t get published in front of my photographs and trip notes.)


Beware wide filters w/no front threads!

By AllStarPhoto.US from Roseville, CA on 8/19/2007

4out of 5

Pros: Strong Construction, Enhancing effect is nice

Cons: Can’t use your lens cap, No lense cap, No front threads, Can’t add Cokin P holder

Best Uses: Image Manipulation

Describe Yourself: Hobbyist/Enthusiast

Product description should be updated to disclose lack of front filter threads.

Paid for expedited shipping, but product arrived later than I expected.

Nice kit price on Amazon!

Circular polarizer is critical, but get lens cap!
