Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Hoya hd3 uv filters are the best filters i've used in over 4 decades of photography. Perfect for protecting the sony rx10 iii. Using on a sony full-frame lens.



Cons

This filter is very hard to clean. You guys really are sloppy. Anyone who inspects this lens will watch dust collect and - no matter what - blower/anti-static brush/pancro with kim wipes.

Quality


Sturdy and they do their job perfectly


Excellent quality with no degradation of image quality


The fingerprint and dust resistance is hard to accept until you have used one of these for a while stuff just doesnt stick


No matter how many sensor swabs and microfiber cloths i used they were very hard to clean

Price


Very expensive but arguably the best uv filter made


For price i think it is fair for me


Expensive but worth it for quality performance

Competitiveness


The earlier hd series from hoya were remarkable


Doesnt get much better than hoya hd3


Normally i buy the same brand accessories as the camera and lens that i am using but not anymore

    No point buying a great lens then throwing a cheap filter on on it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Shrugs off dust and dirt more effectively than any other filter ever used even better than my nikon lenses


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The reduced light loss alone is worth the price of entry but oil and water resistant coating seals the deal


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I have three of these now for my nikon z 7 and they sit on the lenses unless i use a nd or polarizing filter
