- wrong size sent
The quality is average, but I was never able to use because like other people who have bought product, they sent wrong size. I purchased a 55mm kit and a 62mm kit was sent

- Tiffen 55mm Essentials Filter Kit
I was very disappointed after I bought this product. I was unaware that the Lens Adaptor for the Panasonic DMC FZ18, the DMC LA#3, was unavailable. I feel that Amazon should have mentioned that 55mm kit was for LA#3. DMC LA#2 doesn't fit the DMC FZ18. While would Amazon sell a product that was useless? I am still waiting for Panasonic to release the dmc LA#3. Finally, I am very disappointed that Amazon did not state that Tiffen 55mm kit worked only with LA#3, which as I stated, had not been release. Tiffen 55mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit.

- Does not fit Panasonic DMC-FZ50
This filter shows up as a recommended accessory for the Panasonic DMC-FZ50. However, it does not fit this particular camera.

The diameter is right, 55mm. But the threads are not right. At first, I suspected that the threads-per-inch is different. But I went to a local camera store and purchased another filter, and this Tiffen filter screws in to the new filter OK. So I suspect that it's not the threads-per-inch, but maybe the threads are too tall (they have a slightly large diameter which binds against the camera).

The man at my local camera store said that Tiffen changed their packaging a long while back, and the filter that I had was in the older packaging. So perhaps this filter was made for older film cameras and not for newer digital cameras (that's him talking, not me).

Either way, this filter only screws in about 1/3 of a turn and then starts to bind. Don't buy this filter to fit a Panasonic DMC-FZ50.

For what I paid I am quite happy. I have had the uv filter on since I got the set. I have been shooting with the polarizer with satisfaction. I shoot up alot with the sky as the background. I like them so far althought I have not yet tried out the warmer.

The filters came faster than the adapter - the shipping was quick and the buying experience was smooth.

- A Worthwhile Buy
I purchased a 55mm Tiffen Haze-1 plus UV (ultraviolet) filter for my film camera lens. A UV filter is a good thing to have, even for a digital camera, as it does not change the color of the light (color neutral) as it enters your camera through the lens, but, for film cameras, protects against the adverse effects of UV light. A UV and/or haze filter also protects the front element of the lens against scratches, dings and dust, which is advantageous for digital users even if they don't need the UV protection.

The particular filter I bought filters both UV light and haze. The reduction of haze is good for maintaining contrast in pictures, especially when shooting on a humid, hazy day, or high in the mountains. Note: haze filters do not eliminate all haze from your photos, but reduces the effect so that details are not quite as obscured by the haze in the atmosphere. UV light is more prevalent as you rise above sea level, so this sort of filter really helps cut the excessive blue cast of UV light and the haze you find in mountainous areas.

I had read elsewhere a review of UV filters, and this one was rated highest in that particular review. I am very pleased with it. Colors are still bright and strong, and I believe it does reduce haze to a significant degree. (If possible, I will upload an image taken with the filter in place on the lens, though it didn't occur to me to take one without the filter for comparison.)

Most UV filters in this price range do not block all UV light, which is fine if you are just buying the filter to protect the lens. There are expensive, "professional grade" filters that block more UV, down to a certain desireable wavelength (also available on Amazon, I believe). But good, cheaper UV filters like this one are sufficient for most photographers, and, supposedly, this one blocks more UV light than most. The primary goal for me was to protect the lens from scratches and dings, without changing the color or quality of the light entering the lens. The UV filtering is just an added benefit, and should contribute to good film exposure.
