Review on 72Mm UV, CPL, FLD Lens Filter Kit W/ Miracle Fiber Cloth & Carry Pouch - Professional Accessory For 72Mm Lenses by Jairo Cunha

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It's a deal good for me

I always buy a UV filter for my glass to protect it, and saw this little three-pack and snagged it. So far I've had great success with it.The UV filter does what it's supposed to -- pictures are clear as ever, no haze from UV light, no complaints.The polarizer is the best thing about this. It's a great filter and would alone probably cost four times as much as this whole kit. You don't get the real dark blue skies that a higher quality one would give, but it does darken them slightly. Getting rid of reflections and and glare has been superb. It has performed as well as higher grade polarizers. If you've never used a polarizer, it's a must have for some awesome quality and neat looking pictures.I haven't found much use for the FLD. It does normalize the color tones of your pictures (makes them slightly rosy colored), but all in all I think it's a matter preference on that one. I managed to get it stuck on my UVF, and could not unscrew it for the life of me. I had to resort to breaking it off with pliers. Turns out the threads started separating from the ring, however I'm not sure if it's from the build quality or from putting it on a little too tight, but most likely the latter.It's a great buy for $6 (at least, that's how much it was when I bought it) and works great, despite negative reviews I've read on other Zeikos products.

Pros
  • The variety of filters included in the kit allow you to shoot in any light condition. The UV filter is ideal for bright, sunny days, and the FLD filter is perfect for fluorescent lighting, which can sometimes produce an unnatural color cast in your images
Cons
  • The filters may cause ghosting or flares in certain lighting conditions
