The Canon 72mm UV haze filter not only helps to protect your lens from dust, moisture and scratches, it also allows you to correct for UV effect and eliminate haze from your photos. This filter will absorb approximately 71 percent of UV rays, helping to eliminate haze's bluish cast that can obscure distant details. This filter easily screws onto your 77mm lenses.

This is an OK mid-quality filter. However, it will most likely somewhat degrade the quality of your picture. If you have a bargin lens, this is probably a good choice for a protection filter. However, if you have chosen a good quality lens, then this filter will most likely disappoint you with the quality of the pictures you take. A better choice is Hoya's professional line.

I bought a canon lens and the a 77mm lens cover at the same time. The lens is perfect but there was no lens cover in the lens cover package. So they said they would ship me another one with next day shipping which was nice. But the package the lens cover was in was opened, probably during shipping and got scratched and destroyed. So they shipped me another one with next day shipping. The third had the same problem has the second one but this one had some marking like finger prints on it. I simply got a refund now and have to ship three boxes back to them. The problem is the lens package only is held together by one little plastic clip and throwing a little bubble wrap on top of it doesn't protect it from shipping when the box could probably hold 30 of them.

A must for your lens to protect the front glass. Better than the standard cheap filters.

As a long time photographer i needed this filter,would not consider buying any lens without one.
The canon was a good price and does what it says it will do.
i just returned a tiffen filter as it was not as smooth screwing on or off. so not to sound like an employee of canon this thing works. no streaks or haze when i bought it(means it's fresh)and locked it on and that is that.

I couldn't believe I bought such item from amazon. I am really disappointed. It's the worst item i ever buy from online. I want rate this item with ZERO star.
