I buy all Tiffen brand filters for my Super 8mm camera. I learned early on to buy only the ones made in the U.S because of thread problems. Now I'm learning the problems go farther than that. It seems there are about 4 different packaging styles of Tiffen filters. They are obviously the older and newer filters. The UV Haze came at a high price but when I received it I noticed about a week later the glass was loose. The thickness of the filter housing is very thin and there are no ridges for easy handling. There are also a number of different series of filters. Such as Professional, Wide Angle, Thin etc. Tiffen makes the best filters around but if you find one at a low price be cautious. Just like any product, Tiffen has sold several low quality filters over the years and it's best to pay the price for quality than it is to deal with the nightmare of reselling them. I remember when I bought my first bass guitar. It was a Silvertone from Sears. Piece of junk. Next a Fender copy. Another piece of junk. Then a Fender made in Japan. Garbage. A Rickenbacker. Okay Then a Carvin. The best of the lot. If you add up the money spent on those 5 bass guitars it totals twice or three times the amount of my last one which was my best. Never settle for anything but the best quality when buying anything the first time around. You'll save a lot of money in the long run. Anybody want to buy some Tiffen filters?Read full review
Tiffen is on a par with Cokin, B&W and Zeiss! And their UV/daylight filters are as effective at cutting visual haze and clutter as they are at protecting a fine lens! Their polarizing filters (linear or circular) are nothing short of superb! They’re also less expensive than a P Series Cokin. And easier to find.
