Zeiss 82mm UV protect T* multicoated filter

scratching the front lens element of one of my Zeiss lenses led me to buy UV filters for all of the them...not cheap but neither are the lenses....or their repairs. An investment in peace of mind.

This really does make a difference. I had been using filters in the $50 range, but was no totally satisfied with the results of my Sony/Zeiss lens. Would by again even thoug I found it hard to clean after a day at the Flower Garden.

Good Points: ​Used as a lens protector for a 24-70 f2.8. But the clarity is beautiful. Colours are more natural and brighter. Thinking of changing all my lens protectors for one of these. Improvement Points: nothing at the moment

If you are going to protect your lens, buy a filter that is as good as your lens. In my case it was to protect the Sony Gm 24-70mm. Zeiss not only protects my lens, but it does so without degrading the quality of the shot. It was the only affordable choice for me.

I use only Zeiss filters with my Sony/Zeiss lenses, and this one goes great along with the new Sony 24-70 F2.8 GMaster.
