The C-clip that holds the two halves together went flying, but I managed to find it. The filter works well, but could use a bit better QC. I bought this filter, and it was fine for three months, but then while out shooting it came apart in my hand, meaning the half of the filter that you rotate separated from the half that screws to your lens. Unfortunately, it ended my shooting day, because the C-clip is coated with a thin oil that splattered all over my lens, and was impossible to remove without a strong cleaner.When I got home, I managed to snap the two halves back together, and managed to clean my lens, but the actual filter is almost impossible to clean, because when you wipe it, your cloth will touch the edge of the filter and pick up more oil, so you end up fouling the glass again.I've contacted the seller to see about a replacement.
Make sure you practice adjusting and focusing with this filter on. Otherwise it is a great quality filter.
I just got this polarized lens for my canon eos t1i my teacher told me to go tiffen but i read the reviews and people said this was good my lens fell apart and the part that screws in is stuck in my lens i had to us a needle nose to get it out on the first day of using it this is very cheep VERY bad quality but when it wasnt broken it took great pics but i will be buying tiffen from now on
For me, I think its worth the purchase. I love this polarizer and couldn't imagine how long I haven't been using one. I've been using this and like it says it does bring the details out especially when it comes to landscapes. I've used it to make the oceans for fleshed out and skies bluer instead of it being dull. Granted, theres always photoshop, but, this would eliminate some of the problems that you would face right off the bat.
Fits right on my 50mm lens.But it creates a wierd greenish flare when I am taking pictures of any light source (e.g. I would recommend spending more money on a multicoated circular polarizer, or not buying any at all. It works as a polarizer no doubt. lamps, sunlight).But sometimes flares are cool.
