Pros & Cons
Pros
All i know is that the proof is in the pudding - my pictures look great, so i'm keeping it. Fast shipping and exactly as advertised. Superb attention to detail. Service is superb.
The quality and build seems to be up there with previous filters i have purchased from tiffen, hoya and b+w. Super slim for a cpl filter, much slimmer than my old hoya cpl! It's too early to tell if it's as durable as the cpl from other big old names,... Read More
The packaging and presentation is top notch and no skimping was done. The packaging alone is a work of beauty.

Cons
Breakthrough photography x1 cpl is terrible. It makes unusable photos. The polarizing effect is hard to notice.

Competitiveness
In my case this was a 77mm makes it where you can use it for all your other lens you have now or expect to purchase in the future
5 lens mounted on a t5i as i needed something that would cut reflections on wet objects or water on my trip to two national parks
Most importantly they are made in the usa
Or maybe because ive never put a polarizer on a lens this wide before the sigma has a whopping 77mm filter thread
