Filter threads do work with Canon lens caps

On my 30D, the lens caps do fit this filter, but they don't catch very much of the thread (maybe 1 or 2 threads). This isn't a problem, but if this filter was on my lens ALL the time I might not like the fact that it doesn't fit all the way to the bottom.

Other than that, this filter seems to be a good value.

Be careful of vignetting using wide angle lens

I bought this filter to protect my new Tokina 12-24 wide angle lens on my Nikon D50. Hoping that this would be somewhat thin, I went ahead and bought it because you can't beat the price. At 12mm there is significant vignette. It disappears at 13mm. So if you're shooting digital at 12mm or less, this would not be the filter for you. I also considered the canon 77mm sharp cut filter for $8 more. From what I've read, it sounds like that filter would work better on a wide angle lens. Now I'm regretting it. Otherwise, this would have been an excellent buy, and still is, as long at you're shooting mid range focal lengths.

Not the best

The filter quality is acceptable for most lens applications - especially to protect a lens that is primarily used to shoot birthday parties and vacations. However, for high-end lenses there are much better choices. The packaging for the filter is extremely poor (filter in zip lock bag and box). A high-end filter should be supplied in a hard protective case to minimize potential for micro-scratches on surface. Personally, I prefer Nikon filters.

Does the job.

I mainly bought the filter to protect my lens glass which is what it does just fine. I cannot tell a difference in the photos with or without the filter. In todays age of digital photography, the "Digital Darkroom" does the job that a filter use to be responsible for.
