Manufacturer Description
The Tiffen 58mm Digital Enhancing lens filter kit combines four essential digital imaging lens filters to cover just about all shooting situations most photographers will encounter, from portraits to foliage to shooting through glass or glaring sunlight.

Film and video are more sensitive to UV light than our eyes are. This often shows up as a bluish cast in images, especially shots from high altitudes and long distances, praticularly over water. The ultraviolet protector provides basic reduction of UV light.

The Tiffen digital enhancing filter makes red, rust browns, and oranges "pop," with minial effect on other colors. Perfect for fall foliage, earthtone rock formations, architecture, woodwork, faded rustic barns, and any photos where red, brown, and orange subjects should be enriched or appear more intense.

The circular polarizer has the same effect as a polarizer and is used on cameras with beam splitting metering systems commonly found on auto focus SLRs. Use the Tiffen polarizer with the enhancing filter for more dramatic effects.

The 812 warming filter, a Tiffen exclusive, improves skin tones and is ideal for portraits taken on a cloudy day or outdoor, in shade on a sunny day.

Customer Reviews

What Junk
DO NOT BUY THIS JUNK... spend a little more and get better quality. I wish I'd read these reviews first. They mention that the threads on this filter are not well made... I put it on the camera and couldn't get it off. Took ten minutes to loosen it. I tried again...this time not tightening it. Same problem. It is in the trash. I wouldn't even give it away.

Protects Your Lens
Everyone should have a UV filter screwed onto the end of each of their lenses. It's a lot cheaper to replace one of these when it gets scratched than a lense. This does what it's supposed to do.

Could be better
The filter itself is fine. But the package is horrible. It is not air tight and there is no plastic bag to protect the filter.

So you can image how much dusts can get on it during shipping and handling. Actually, I had to clean the dusts on the filter by myself before I could use it!
