Customer Review: Received Used Filter?
Summary: 3 Stars
I just received this filter and the first thing I noticed taking it out of the oversized shipping box was that the plastic case the filter came in was scuffed all over as if someone had rubbed it with sandpaper. I didn't think it was a problem as long as the filter was ok. Unfortunately, upon opening the unsealed case, I noticed that the lens was very dusty on both sides and there was a big fat thumb print right in the middle of the lens.
I tried cleaning the filter with a lens cleaning cloth and it helped to remove the dust but I could not remove the thumb print completely. I can't see the print anymore with the naked eye but when I blow on it, the steam makes it reappear until it evaporates. I decided that it was probably not going to affect the pictures much since I couldn't see the print when it was dry.
The performance of the lens is decent. I can see the picture change on my viewfinder as I rotate the filter. I do find that the rotating part is loose. If the camera shakes or moves too much, the lens can rotate slightly on its own. I wish there was a little more resistance to it but most people will try their best to take shots with a steady hand so it shouldn't be a problem. The photos also come out a little darker than without the filter so I use it only in bright sunlight.
I decided to keep the filter since it wasn't too expensive. It was disappointing to receive a filter with the permanent thumbprint which could have come from the Tiffen factory or from amazon sending me a used items as new. I've heard of others claiming to receive used items from amazon so I wouldn't be surprised. You may end up receiving a new one but its no guarantee.
