40.5mm UV Lens Filter HD MCUV Ultraviolet 28 Multi-Coated Filters (Nano-Xcel series Toughened Glass)
SKU: KF01.1858
Quality filter from K&F concepts at an affordable price. The filter is slim and threaded onto my lens easily. I experience no vignetting with this filter on my 18-45mm kit lens. The lens is clear, and provides a layer of protection for my lens. Photos included show the photo taken without the filter attached (the one with the filter in the photo), and then the same shot after I installed the filter. No difference - exactly what I'm looking for. You can't go wrong with K&F concepts - high end quality at a budget friendly price.

Some say you don't need now with digital photography, but I have always bought a UV filter to cover all my lens. Never have to worry about fingerprints or dirt and dust getting on lens. Great price and very well packed, love the case it comes in.

If you’re looking for some good quality protection for your lens, it’s hard to beat K&F Concepts at this price point. The quality of materials, fit and finish. And overall clarity and protections of this product, provides a fantastic way to keep a multitude of things from getting to and damaging your more expensive lens.
For me it gives me a great amount of comfort having some protection that is so good at doing its job, that I don’t even know it’s there until it’s already succeeded at protecting me.
Overall, this product is made very well, it fits perfect on my lens and does a fantastic job at what it’s intended to do. If you need UV or more importantly damage protection, this is a great choice that I highly recommend for this price point.
I have included some pictures and video to help show the quality of the product. I hope you found this information to be helpful in your decision.

This has helped with UV protection during the day and has also helped prevent scratches to my camera lens. It is very slim and you can barely tell that its on. I am also able to put my lens cover on it so that it does not get damaged. Worth the investment

I know some people arent fans of putting glass on top of glass, but often times when you rent a lens its gonna have a protective filter on it. I needed something to protect my 35 1.8s lens for Nikon. This allows me to do that. The picture quality remains solid. I just wish the case this came in wasnt so big.

Definitely low profile, uv protective of camera. I think there is slightly more contrast in photos too which is welcome! Highly recommended!

Made from high-quality materials. Precisely built. It offered the least amount of resistance I've had screwing on a new filter. It's very thin so it won't interfere with wide-angle lenses (as much as is possible).
Using a full-frame DSLR, I did side-by-side, pixel-level comparisons between shots with no filter and with this. One photo was a wide-angle shot the included sky on a high-UV day.
Results: well, I didn't see any difference in color or richness in the high-UV shot, so I wouldn't buy it just for that. Mostly, people buy these simply as lens protectors (and trust me, they've saved my bacon on a high-end lenses several times now!). As a lens protector, you want it to be as unobtrusive as possible and I am pleased to report that I can detect no significant difference with any test shot - color balance, sharpness, contrast - they all are so close that I could never say definitively that any minuscule difference was due to the filter.
A very high-quality product with (presumably) a good level of protection. The packaging and case also convey a feeling of quality and pride in their product.

While a clear filter may not be the most exciting bit of camera gear, it can prove valuable in protecting your expensive lens investment. This filter seems optically clear and does not add any color cast. From my readings I barely see any light loss, nor have I run into internal reflections. The filter has some grip indents on the outside which make it easy to install and remove. Many of my older filters would become stuck and difficult to remove, but I don't anticipate that with this one. It is not overly thin, but I have not discovered any vignetting with this at the wide end of my 24-70 Lumix S Pro lens.
If you tend to shoot in harsh environments, or anywhere that may cause contact with your front lens element, seriously give this some consideration. It's affordable protection worth having.

UV filters are a lot more useful for film as UV affects film way more. However this is still useful for protection, both from UV if you are shooting a lot and also from dust and other particles. There is almost no visible difference between having it on vs having it off in most circumstances so if you want a little more protection on your lens, this is perfect for you.
