Pros & Cons
Pros
The x4 uv filter fits the nikon d810, d850, and z7 which are known to highlight flaws. It fit my canon eos 7d like a glove.
All my filters are from breakthrough photography. Gm lens. Wanted to get back into my passion of photography.
Photos are crystal clear with nikon z8 and 24mm f1. The profile is just right and there is no masking or altering of colors whatsoever.
The glass and coatings seems excellent. The schott glass speaks for itself in quality. The coating appears to be spot on.
Filters are great, but even more outstanding was breakthrough's customer service. This kind of customer service is far and above anything i have ever experienced. The filters work as good as they claim. Their filters have a 20 year warranty.
Cons
The metal is a bit too beefy. It's great for taking it off, but it interferes with the lens hood. This filter was delivered filthy and slightly scratched.

Awesome filter at a great price shipped and received in a timely manner
A little expensive but you get what you pay for
It was more expensive than the bw i was going to buy but i do not regret my purchase
Shipping
They contacted me right after my filter was shipped and i feel confident that they will stand behind their product
Packaging/appearance
The packaging is outstanding and the included clean cloth is appreciated
Clearest glass ive ever seen packaged well and fantastic warranty
I was packing up the gear so the lens hood was already reversed in place for transport
Competitiveness
This x4 filter is the superior ultraviolet filter of all similar filters
The filter is also multi coated and thanks to this proprietary coating is far easier to wipe clean of finger prints oils and sa... Read More
