The filter arrived in a sturdy plastic case with the filter well cushioned against movement or contamination. It fit my Nikon lens just like I expected it to do. I will keep the cases for safe storage of any additional filters I may buy.

This feature is particularly helpful when I'm outdoors, and time is of the essence.What sets the waka filter apart is its precise construction. Its Ultra Slim design eliminates unwanted vignetting and distortion, ensuring that my images are sharp, clear, and have the perfect contrast with genuine colors.All things considered, I'm thrilled with the waka 52mm MC UV Filter - Ultra Slim. It's an essential tool for any photographer on a budget, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking to take their photography game to the next level.

If you've ever had pay to get a lens repaired to replace a damaged front lens element, you know it is well worth it to put on a protective filter. Some people say don't put questionable glass in front of good glass. Maybe they have a money tree in their backyard, but considering the cost of repair, if I had no other choice, I would even put mediocre glass in front of good glass if it saves me the cost of repair and the image quality was only minimally affected. Fortunately, there are choices out there, and for the longest time, I used B+W XS-Pro UV filters on my lenses. The B+W costs a lot more than these Waka filters, but they worked and didn't affect image quality.Not so long ago, I bought a camera kit for the kids to learn with. There were some cheap ($200-300 lenses) kit lenses that came with the kit and out of habit, I wanted to put a protective filter on those lenses, but I didn't want to pay the B+W prices for a $200 lens. Fortunately, I found these Waka filters and the price was irresistible so I tried them out and got some of the 52mm ones. To my surprise, they seemed very high quality, and the multi-layer coating is real! (i was expecting some false advertising here, considering the price) Needless to say, I was pleased with the price and surprised by the quality.A few months later, I acquired some new lenses for my own camera and decided to try out these Waka filters again, this time the 67mm and 77mm ones. And once again, I am very pleased with these filters. Very low profile, absolutely no image quality loss that I can tell. It certainly will make no difference for my work, while protecting my new lenses and keeping money in my pocket. After experiencing this quality at this price point, I find it hard to justify the cost of B+W now.My only question is... the word "Japan" is printed on the lens, but these are clearly manufactured in China. (says so on the box and product description here) So, what does this mean? Is "Waka" a Japanese firm that manufactured these in China? I've just never heard of "Waka" brand before.

I bought this for my SonyA7II paired up with the 50mm f/1.8 with the threading of 49mm. It fits perfectly and works well for especially during the day time. It has blocked out some light that I didn't want and it kind of works like a lens hood from blocking out light. I also noticed during the night time but, I don't know if anyone really uses a UV filter at night for night photography, it was the fact that it reflects light on the filter so it would look like it would mirror light trails or surrounding lights. This feels like it's ghosting my images or I would think I'm shaking the camera but, it was the filter.Pros:- Reflects some light- Better contrast in your shots!- Does what it is described to do- Very good price pointCons:- If shooting at night with it on, please remove it to prevent ghosting or reflections on your end result shots.- The threading could be tricky and removing the UV filter can be hard to remove so, sometimes it could get stuck.
