Expensive
By A15QYHQH80W30L on 2008-02-21
I bought this mainly for protection of my expensive lenses.....I have always read that putting a cheap glass filter defeats the quality of the lens you are using. So I decided to get the filter that I thought might be the best there is in the Hoya product line up and I am totally satisfied with this.
Hoya 77mm DMC PRO1 UV Filter

I bought this filter to attach to a Tokina 12-24mm super wide angle lens. I needed protection for the ominous objective lens, protection from flare common to this type of lens, and very thin profile to prevent vignetting when at the shortest focal length. The filter has performed exceptionally well in all categories. I have been able to make flare free pictures with the sun directly in front of the lens. There is no distortion, no vignetting, and I have only praise for this filter.

I needed a new higher quality UV filter for my new Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 L lens and decided to go with the Hoya DMC Pro1. I am very pleased with my purchase and would recommend this filter.
Good products, but very easy to get dirty and hard to clean.

Water will leave spots on it and very hard to remove the spots. Probably B+W filters will be better.
Excellent price point, nice results

There are cheaper filters, and there are more expensive filters. How much should I be paying?
Conventional wisdom says don't hamper your expensive lenses with a cheap filter - so you want to avoid the el cheapos out there. But how good is "good enough"?
For my uses, I have been using the higher end Hoya filters - like the DMC and SMC versions - and have not been disappointed at all. I have two of this particular filter; one lives full time on my Canon 24-105 f/4L and the other lives on my Canon 10-22 f/3.5-4.5. Not a problem with either of them so far. I have also owned Tiffen (a little bit cheaper - but more flare), and B+W (more expensive, equal performance to the Hoya IMHO).
And I should mention that I use the 24-105mm as my walkabout lens and I like to be ready to shoot, so I rarely use a lens cap. I regard this Hoya filter as my "see-through lens cap", and it does its job (protecting the lens itself) admirably, without a lot of flare or optical distortion (at least to my eyes). So far it has cleaned up easily and proven quite durable, as I tend to travel a lot and shoot in semi-harsh conditions.
I am sure that eventually I'll have to replace my UV filter after the inevitable accident or incident. And when the time comes, it'll be another Hoya filter, just like this one.
