Amazon Basics 58 mm Circular UV Protection Filter for Clearer Pictures, Protects from Dust, Dirt and Scratches

Before getting this Amazon Basics 55mm Circular UV Protection Filter, my camera lens would get dirty often, and I was almost about to scratch it. Since replacing a camera lens is far more expensive than buying a UV filter, I decided to get this one—and it was the best decision!The filter fits perfectly on my Sony DSLR lens and provides great protection against dust, dirt, and scratches. It also helps reduce haze in bright outdoor conditions, and best of all, it doesn’t affect image quality—my photos remain sharp and clear. The build quality is solid, and it screws onto the lens smoothly.For just £8.54, this filter is an absolute bargain. It’s a small investment that saves a lot of money in the long run by protecting my lens from potential damage. I would highly recommend it to any photographer.

Very affordable and does the work it supposed to. Satisfied

Have seen some reviews on here rubbishing the filter but so far, I have no complaints. Im sure that many nurture their lens and never take them out but there are those lens on the used market where the front elemnt has been marked. So a simple filter could prevent that meaning your lens could be worth more whe you trade it in.

An essential purchase for you lens, to protect the front element from dirt, fingerprints, smudges or impact, if nothing else. This Amazon basics filter arrived in a plain cardboard box, with an unmarked plastic case inside that should fit a variety of filter sizes. Fits the front of my lens easily and securely and allows the lens cap to fit normally as well. No noticeable effect on optics, just an added layer of protection for the front of the lens (and you don't mind giving it a good scrub if it gets dusty).

Good UV filter, works as intended.I use it easily as a lens cap to protect the lens, does not interfere with colours or image quality.Bargain.

Does exactly what it says.

There is so much nonsense written about UV protection. What has changed since the days of film and flarey UV shots is that most Digital cameras have sensors with a degree of built in UV filtration, combine that with modern lenses that have multiple coatings on each element reducing both UV and other image degrading effects from stray light and the UV problem is minimal, (unless you happen to live high in the Andes) . What has n't changed is the fact that you are going to whack your lens on a table one day... or drop it...or take a shot and get covered in sea spray and a UV filter is going to save your lens. That simple fact, along with preventing dust and smudges directly on a lens which will cause image problems, make a UV filter the cheapest and most sensible addition to every lens.
