Pros & Cons

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

Pros

This filter sits in front of a leica summicron 50mm lens. Fits my leica cl perfectly. The only thing i can say is i i did have to wipe down the filter with the microfiber cloth to clean it up. Purchased the x1uv filter for my sony zoom lens.

Cons

The coating scratches way too easy. The filter was initially smudged as would be expected but the difficulty i had cleaning it.

In retrospect, this has to be the poorest quality uv filter i have purchased in the past 50 years.

The x1 uv filter is very bad news. They become visible when light is shone through the filter, or when light strikes the filter at an angle. A flashlight shinning through the filer after having thoroughly cleaned it with ror lens cleaner.

Easy installation and included a cleaning cloth

Great strong product feels legit and not flimsy

It fell apart after six months of light use

I just received my x1 uv filter for my new canon rf 2870 f2l lens and i am blown away with the quality

Price

Overall a quality filter for a great price

I use this uv filter on all my nikon lenses cant beat the 25 yr warranty good protection for my lenses for a great price

Save yourself 100 and just get it

The cost of a filter is a whole lot less than it is to replace a camera lens

Fast shipment and very well protected from damage

The lens filter arrived in a decent time frame

This arrived the other day and attached it to my lens for a bit of protection

Packaging/appearance

Nice packaging it arrived sealed clean and ready to mount

Packaging is impressive and the quality is superb

No this company didnt spend 25 or 35 on the packaging that is just going to sit in a closet until i finally throw it out

Te box it came with also defies the price i paid for filter

Competitiveness

I’ve had other filters before but this one rivals the ones from bw

This is a much better option than the one the manufacturer makes

Ive used pretty much every brand but breakthrough i would categorize as perfect

I no longer use any other brand
