Customer Reviews
Great set of filters.
This set is worth every penny. I try to leave the uv on at all times. The cpl is the most fun out of all of them. It makes colors much brighter and it removes glare when you rotate it. Everything comes out so clear and sharp. I have this set in 52, 58, and 72mm. I am planning on buying the other sizes soon.
Satisfied Nikon Photographer
Bought this set with my 28-200 Nikon lens four years ago and they have outlasted my camera which I am now upgrading. I leave the UV on constantly and the polarizer more than half of the time. The simple case and three filters have functioned well without reflections/shadows/or cleaning problems. We travel overseas and to dusty "third world" environments but have not had any complaints. The rotating action on the polarizer is still as smooth as when I put it on the camera. I just purchased a 70-200 2.8 nikon as part of a professional set up and will put a (much) more expensive set of nikon filters on it, but no regrets on this set which I will continue to use on my back up camera. Haven't really experimented with the FL D filter because I don't do much indoor photography, but it appears to function as promised.
Poor quality/Very cheap!
These are very poor quality filters. All of the filters came with a film on them that was almost impossible to get rid of. The polarizer filter had a flaw in the glass. It had a speck that was permenanent. 47th Street was great about the problem and they sent me a new set at no cost without even having received the first ones back. The replacements were not much better. I would not recommend a cheap filter like this on any SLR.
I ended up sending both sets back and 47th street gladly refunded me right away. They were really great to deal with!
