It Works. No Visible Image Artifacts.
It screws on smoothly but I found it a little harder to unscrew. Not that unusual for new filters – especially ones like this where the lower, stationary ring carrying the threads is very narrow. Hard to get a grip on it between the camera lens and the filters outer, thicker rotating ring. If you have a filter wrench it will make that easier.
It has outer threads so you can stack filters. The outer ring rotation is a bit stiff, but then, new lens. Given the price, I doubt that the build quality is equal to some of the big-name manufacturers, but if you can’t see the difference, why pay the difference? Maybe a pro with pro equipment could identify some contrast or color balance issues, but I’m just a casual photographer.
The accompanying lens cap is unnecessary, but it’s hard to have too many spares! It’s also one of those ones you can get on and off by squeezing the little nubs in the center of the cap which makes using it with a lens hood more convenient. Spare microfiber cloths are okay by me also.
No reason so far to take away any stars from the rating.
