Review for: “K&F Concept 72MM UV Filter — HD Ultraviolet Filter Scratch Resistant Lens Protector Filters with Lens Cap Cleaning Cloth for DSLR Cameras (Nano-X Series)” Brand: K&F Concept Size: 72MM The K&F Concept 72mm UV filter came in a plastic container inside a plastic-wrapped box, with a 72mm lens cap, wrist strap, and microfiber cleaning cloth. I checked on the K&F Concept Canada website and the price on the list (currently $36.99) is the same, although their website says a special price of $46.06. I always put a UV filter on the front of my lens to protect it in case it gets dropped. K&F Concept is a good name when it comes to filters, so I expect it will be decent glass as well. I'm impressed that it came with a lens cap as I lost mine. The plastic case with the wrist strap is great for keeping the filter safe when not in use.

This little set from K&F is actually really nice. Not only do you get a well made 55mm UV filter, you get a spare lens cap, a cleaning cloth and strap for attaching it.

Everything comes in a clear case. I would have liked to have seen a separate case for the filter but as it will most likely be fitted to one of your lenses it isn't really needed. The filter is actually really good quality and easy to attach. The lens cap is the pinch type. Which means it can be used with a lens hood.

Overall a cracking little set.

This MC UV Lens Filter has been a great addition to my gear. I already had a CPL filter from K&F and it is around the same size. The build quality is good. It's super slim, feels sturdy and reliable, and no vignetting from what I saw.

The coatings on this filter reduce reflections and ghosting. I tried sunny and cloudy conditions and the filter worked great with both. It also works as a protector for my main lens. As a physical barrier against dust, dirt, scratches, and accidental bumps, it gives peace of mind.

Finally, it does include a lens cap and cleaning cloth which are nice. The cap fits securely and the cleaning cloth is just your standard microfiber. I would say this filter is a great value for the price you pay.

Please note I’m not an expert and nor do I own any equipment that can test the manufacture’s claims. I can only compare my experience with this filter vs my Hoya and B&W filters. I got the 58mm filter. The filter come in a semi-hard case. The filter kit includes a micro fiber cloth, pinch lens cap, and lens cap tether.

The filter was clear and I didn’t notice any blemish in the filter. It threaded onto my Olympus 75-300mm II lens without any issues. Usually cheap filter can cause extra flaring or ghosting in your image when you have a strong light source. I took a several test pictures of different light sources and I did notice a very minor flaring/ghosting in the image if pointed just right at the light source. Another issue that cheap filters can cause is poor autofocus or decrease in image sharpness. I did not notice any of those issues. I did not notice any vignetting with this filter in place.

K&F Concept sells several different UV filters. This is their basic filter which has 18 multi-layer coating but (according to their marketing material) is not Waterproof or Scratch-Resistant. K&F Concept does sell pricier UV Filters that will provide those features if you need them. For the low cost these sell for, I don’t feel you can go wrong with this filter if you want a basic UV Filter to protect your lens.

It is a high quality UV filter, very good construction and the original Canon lens cap fits perfectly.

This K&F Concept 77mm UV filter is a good accessory for your expensive camera lenses. It protects the front element from dust and scratches - or in my case flying mud at motocross events. The filter fits easily on to all my 77mm filter threaded lenses, and comes with a centre release K&F lens cap too. The lens cap also has a cap keeper if you want to avoid loosing the lens cap.

What I like about this filter is the thickness - or lack of it - as it's 3mm thick and that means it doesn't appear to darken the corners of the frame even on the wide-angle lenses I tried. I used it on my 16-35mm lens and there was no visible vignetting with this filter, and that does happen with thicker filters. The multi-coating must be rather good too as I did not see any evidence of lens flare even without a lens hood and the sun in the edge of the frame.

The UV blocking capabilities are not needed these days for digital cameras as the image sensors have a UV filter on them, so you won't see a change in the colour cast as described in the product info.

The filter comes in a good protective box, and also includes a microfibre cleaning cloth.

For the price this is a good value lens protection filter.

As always K&F have done it again with a simple but effective UV filter that is easy to attach and use. The lens filter has a lens cap pre-attached to keep the outside clean when attaching and there is a nice chunky grip to assist with screwing on to the lens. The cleaning cloth is shipped in a sealed bag to prevent any dust and dirt getting on the cloth when you open the package before you use it. The hand strap is a little fiddly to attach as the hole on the lens cap is a little tight and small. The Included lens cap is great as the threads are a little more pronounced and this means it will "bite" the filter better when attached to protect it from scratches.
