Had a tiffen UV filter. Turns out, it was decreasing contrast & adding in all sorts of nastiness into my image. Replaced with this & it's almost exactly the same image compared to no filter at all. Never heard of this brand before, but i'm glad I took the gamble. A VERY solid perfomer!

This has been fun to test out and use on my Canon camera. It makes landscape pictures more vivid, makes the colors pop. It is super easy to use, you just pop it on the end of your camera lens before taking pictures. I recommend putting it on before turning your camera on if you have auto focus. Quality wise it seems to be well made and durable. I would say you should treat it carefully just like a regular camera lens but it seems to be fairly durable. It came in a small package, which was nice because when you get the small items in the big boxes it can be cumbersome. The packaging includes visual directions as well which is nice. My expectations are met with this product. I think it exceeded my expectations on picture quality which is great.

Item received matched my basic expectations for a 52mm UV filter, as described on the Amazon website.This filter (Beschoi 52mm UV filter) features a thinner-than-traditional frame thickness. More specifically, the 6.2mm frame thickness that I measured was about 1/3 less than the ~9mm frame thickness of a Neewer-brand 52mm ND filter that I happened to have on hand, for comparison.A thin filter like this may be an advantage when used on certain ultra-wide angle lenses that are prone to vignetting from filter usage. (Vignetting: Image corner darkening due to partially blocked light rays, which could be caused by use of a thicker filter(s), among other reasons.) For most lenses, vignetting from a filter shouldn't be a practical concern, as most quality lenses are designed with filter usage in mind. (Possible exceptions to this may be CPL filters, which are thicker than other filters.)The optical material in this Beschoi filter is a glass (rather than a plastic), as expected for a quality filter. Both filter surfaces are coated with anti-reflection coatings, as evidenced by the green light reflections. The effectiveness of anti-reflection coatings appears about average for a filter of this type; test shots I took into bright lights produced faint ghosting when this filter was in use, but this is to be expected. (It is best to remove any filters when shooting into bright light sources, in order to avoid unwanted ghosting or contrast-reducing flares.)I cannot confirm whether the anti-reflection coatings really consist of 30 layers as advertised. Also claimed are Mult-Resistant-Coatings (MRC) that should help repel dusts and water to help keep the glass cleaner longer. (I placed a drop of water on the filter glass as a test, and it did bead up. But I couldn't say if it did so more than it would on a regular clean glass; it looked to be about the same to be honest.)The filter frame material is aluminum. (Some premium filters use brass.) The quality of the filter threads are acceptable, but due in part to the frame thinness and also from the use of black matte paint, the thread-on action was less than smooth. That said, for a filter that tends to stay on a lens, this should not be a practical concern for most people.Personally, I generally prefer to use higher-grade Japanese Hoya filters and German B+W filters, but they are more pricey. Given the relatively low cost of these filters, I think this Beschoi filter represents a good value. So I'm giving it 4 stars.As measured: - Frame thickness (for the 52mm UV filter): 6.2mm

I typically use UV filters to protect the lens when I'm in a situation where it may get dirty or scratched. Better to hurt a filter than need to replace a lens. However, your photography has to go through every piece of glass between your subject and your filter, and the image quality is only as good as the weakest link. I've often purchased these filters only to never use them because they harm IQ so badly. And if they aren't attached to the lens, they aren't protecting it.I've included a 100% crop outdoors. I see no sharpness hit, and the contrast difference is almost imperceptible. If I flip back and forth between the two, I can see a very slight contrast loss in the darks. I also included a shot aiming almost directly at the sun trying to get lens flare, and saw nothing. Sharpness is again not affected, but I still can see that very slight contrast loss in the darks- but once again, almost completely imperceptible. I wouldn't be able to see it if I wasn't flipping back and forth between the images, and even then it's difficult.For kicks, I did test this with a UV light up against other UV filters I own (none of which I'm very impressed with) and this one did block the most out of them all, but a lot of the UV light did seem to make it through. I wouldn't call this a scientific test because I'm not even sure the desired wavelengths match up anyway, so make of that what you will.I was toying between 4 and 5 stars because of the very tiny contrast hit, because UV filters should help contrast especially in the darks- but that's really only true at telephoto ranges and I'm using this on a wider angle lens. I'm going with 5 because it's going to work wonderfully for what I got it for- protecting my lens without affecting the image quality. The contrast hit is so small that I will be completely comfortable using this filter essentially all of the time to keep my lens safe, unlike every other UV filter I've owned to date. This is the first UV filter I have owned that I am likely to nearly permanently leave attached to my lens, where it can actually do the job I got it for, so I think that deserves a full 5 from me.Also came with a microfiber cleaning cloth.

Good quality UV does what it says on the package doesn't impact the image quality of your lenses or mess around with your autofocus, yes I'd recommend this for the price. You get what you pay for.
