User Reviews about Tiffen 46mm Green 11 Filter
When I used the uv filter with zoom, a circle of black appeared on the borders of the picture. I have not yet tried it for close up or macro shots. Not good. -- Tiffen 46mm Photo Essentials Filter Kit
Everything is good except the included filter pouch is too big (8 inches long). If could easily be 5 inches long for the 46 mm filters. It will then be more compatible with the smaller camera bag (Tamrac 5230) and the smaller camera (Lumix DMC-FZ28) that I have. -- Filter pouch too big
I initially gave this product a poor review after using for about 2 weeks. At the time I wasnt sufficiently versed in its use together with the Panasonic FZ18 and therefore got some frustrating results. Here is my revised review after using the set for more than 8 months now.
This package actually offers great value for the price. I've noted greatly enhanced colour saturation using the polarizer (especially with sunsets and rich hues of blue and orange). The UV filter has also proven effective in reducing the ugly blue glow look under flourescent lighting as well as cutting haze in my shots. While I've used the ND filter on rare ocassions to reduce over-exposure, I have yet to try it on other suggested applications, eg. blurring water movement, but this requires a tripod which I dont have. given the fact that I live in Trinidad where almost everything already has a warm tone, I have never once used the warming filter.
If you're using a wide-angle lens then look out for vignetting (darked out edges)on our shots. To my knowledge, this cannot be avoided since the lens will also capture the edges of the filter given the expanse of its angle. You can overcome this by zooming in slightly until the dark edges disappear.Additionally, remember that with the polarizer, you lose a little light so you may need to widen your aperture, slow your speed or adjust your ISO to get the right exposure.
Overall, great package, great price. -- Good value package
The filters fit my FZ28K perfectly. The UV filter is perfect for protecting the lense, which seems more important since the camera doesn't have interchangeable lenses.
The CP filter works well to produce brilliant daylight photos. However, I do get a little bit of vignetting when I use the CP. I'm not stacking filters, so I'm not sure why it's happening. It only occurs right at the corners of the photos. I haven't had any problems just croping the dark corners out.
Even with the vignetting, this set is a great budget addition for the FZ28 hobbiest. -- Unbeatable value and perfect for the FZ28
