Altura Photo 95mm Lens Filter Kit - Multi-Coated UV Protector, CPL Polarizing and ND Neutral Density Filters + Case for Camera Accessories & Lenses

I purchased this Altura Photo 67mm filter kit in 2021 and it’s still working well. The filters fit properly on my lens and the material y very sturdy, they are easy to install and removal. Image quality has been good, and the coatings seem to do a decent job helping with glare and reflections. The CPL filter is useful for reducing reflections and improving color in outdoor shots and is very smoth the adjustemt ability, and the UV filter works well for basic lens protection. One of my favorite things about this kit is the included pouch. It keeps the filters organized and protected when traveling or storing them in a camera bag. The ND4 filter works fine for basic light reduction, but I do wish the kit included more ND options for stronger light control. Pros: • Still working well after years • Filters fit properly and are easy to use • Good coating quality • CPL filter helps with reflections and color • Included pouch is very convenient • Cons: • Only one ND filter included • Would be better with additional ND strengths • Conclusion: This Altura Photo filter kit is a good starter set for photographers who want basic filters at an affordable price. The filters perform well for general use, and the pouch is a great addition for storage and travel. It’s a solid value, though having more ND filter options would make the kit even better.

The Altura Photo 49MM Lens Filter Kit I bought for my 50mm lens has really impressed me with its performance and results far! Each filter, in the set brings something to the table and has truly elevated my photography in various ways, I put all of them to the test and had a few things to say. The UV filter is really handy for protection – I always make sure it's on my lens to guard against dust and scratches as well as accidental fingerprints which we know happens from time to time! The best part is that it doesn't impact the image quality all; in fact, it helps keep my photos super sharp even in sunny conditions. The polarizer filter is a must have for photography enthusiasts like me! It works wonders by minimizing reflections, from water and glass while boosting the richness and depth of colors in my landscape photos. Using an ND filter enables me to capture images in daylight by slowing down the shutter speed without causing overexposure issues. Making it perfect for achieving motion blurs such as silky water flows or dynamic cloud movements; it's also handy for maintaining balanced exposure when aiming for a wide aperture, in shots requiring depth of field focus. The filters are crafted from top notch glass material. I haven't experienced any unexpected changes in color or distortions with them. Moreover, the case provided helps in keeping everything maintained and safeguards the filters when they are not being used. This set of filters is ideal, for photographers seeking to enhance their photographs with a range of filters. I strongly suggest it for its quality and effectiveness!

Haters are going to hate. The price made me very skeptical, the smaller group of very negative reviews gave me pause. I decided that in the worst case scenario, I can send them back. I am using the 72MM filter set on a Nikon Z6 with the 24-70MM FX lens for professional video production of outdoor B-reel. UV filter: Clear, minimal added distortion, no visible defects in the filter, provides a small added degree of crispness to outdoor images in partly-cloudy and full sun situations. CPL: Color me really impressed. For the money, the performance is in a word - amazing. Excellent for removing glare and reflection off of water and glass, while brightening blues. Does soften focus but within acceptable ranges. Adjustment is easy. I am shooting with an Atomos Ninja V so the larger display enables me to dial in the CPL with more precision. ND4: Useless, hence the 4 stars. As others have noted the ND4 filter adds a lot of brown tones to your images. I did use it on a beach where I was shooting some surf images in lousy midday light with high clouds. It helped but the gray rocks turned decidedly brown. If you're an expert at Photoshop/Premiere you can adjust to fix, but it will take some time. I also found that the ND4 softened the focus worse than the other filters, where some video was unusable for our work. If you're buying this for the CPL and the UV, it is still well worth the money even if you toss the ND4. Having dropped a 24-300MM FX lens with a UV filter on it (not this one) to find the UV filter cracked to pieces, I am a huge fan of using a UV or clear filter to protect your glass full time. This represents dirt cheap insurance, and additionally, a quality CPL that rivals other choices that are 3X or 4X the cost.

I was looking for a circular polarizer (CP) to take pictures of pictures inside glass covered frames. Most of the pictures in the frames were of low quality anyway (early childhood photos circa 1950). I just wanted to minimize the reflection. The Altura filters were a fit for my 77 mm Canon 24-70 f/4 L lens. Most quality filters were over $100 just for the CP. Well, the CP in this kit worked well. As I said, the material I was photographing was low quality anyway. The CP of this kit definitely did not degrade the pictures. It fit my needs perfectly. For high quality landscapes, I don't need a filter. I make adjustments to all my pictures in Photoshop anyway. I might use the ND filter for the occasionally over bright situations. I do not plan to use the UV filter and question the need for UV filtering.

I bought this set of filters to fit a 77mm Fujinon lens. I needed a UV filter, and I wanted a CPL filter. I bought a separate variable ND filter so I really didn’t need the ND4 filter but it’s a good addition to this set. So far I have been pleased with the set and am happy to recommend it. The UV filter is useful as a basic protective cover for a lens, but it also does filter out UV light. This is a lot less of a problem when it comes to digital camera, as UV light was harmful to 35mm film. UV light can make images hazy and this filter can reduce that. In very specific situations, there can be reflections between the lens glass and the filter, so there are occasions when using the UV filter is not advisable. I had the opportunity to use the CPL filter on a sunny day at a lake and I used the filter to cut through the reflections on the water. It worked well and I was able to get a picture of things on the bottom. That’s all I could really ask. I have not used the ND4 filter. This set comes in a nice carrying case that protects the filters when they’re not in use. The case is small enough that it fits inside my camera bag without any issue. This is a decent filter set and I am pleased with it. The filters I have used have worked well for me.

As described A+

Really nice set of everyday filters in a padded foldup bag. If you aren't sure where to start with filters start with this filter assortment. The UV filter is great for image clarity on days that aren't perfect, and even those that are can be improved as it seems to help with color shift leading to a prettier picture. Might be cutting through crap in the air (like smog) in addition to the UV but whatever it does I like the result overall. The Neutral Density filter I got to assist with night scenes where some street lights are brighter than others leading to hot spots. My first tests already show an improvement and I suspect when I tweak my exposure and experiment I'll be closer to what I am looking for. Lastly, the Circular Polarizing filter is a good general purpose filter that held glare. I haven't tried coupling it with the ND filter yet, but on its own it help cut some of the sunshine reflecting off the water so you can see the texture of the water instead of the glare. Probably the biggest challenge overall with the CPL use (not this brand, just in general) is trying to rotate the filter to the perfect angle to get what you want. Doing it through the viewfinder on a DSLR is nearly impossible and on an LCD possible but difficult to see the differences. But as far as the brand itself in this set, it works great. Just a pain to use effectively until you develop a better eye. Practice makes perfect they say.

Updated: The seller did reach out to me and refund me for my original purchase. Therefore I raised my review rating from 1to 3 stars. As a long time photographer I am always changing and upgrading lenses. Buying filters for each size can become expensive. So when saw these and the reviews I felt it could be worth checking out. Oh boy was I wrong. Photos included are image with filter and without filter. Clearly you see the haze. It can turn any professional photographer into a novice. The first thing I noticed was the threading. It seemed to be off, or just not right. Make it take a few tries to just screw the filter on. Once on I saw results I wouldn’t wish on any photographer. I spent a day shooting a theme park I regular. I was noticing a haze when using the polaroid filter. Sure enough when I got back to the editing room, haze on all photos. Removed the filter and took some shots, no haze . Now I have a $2000 camera, and if you are a photographer we all know how much we love and take care of our equipment. This cheap filter set is not for you. The issue is they are plastic. So it seems they just aren’t made well. The lens filter had a built in haze. No cleaning if filter changed it. I then noticed it was the same for the clear filter as well, just not a clear filter when using plastic. I would not recommend this to anyone who likes clear images and is expecting this to work as described. A filter is to enhance your image from cleaning the proper light out before it hits your lens and the camera mirror, this just gave me one full day of fuzzy photos.

Arrived today look and feel okay. Not tried on my lens yet doesn’t arrive until Monday. Quality feel, looks Durable. Great value, just need to check image quality and Functionality. Will try it then. If there a problem I will change my review.

Met my expectations. Good value for money. Timely delivery.

Good quality

Great item. Fits perfectly

Awesome set, excellent quality and value given the price point. Makes me wonder why I ever spent three times as much for apparently very similar products for other lens sizes. I would recommend this set for anyone wanting a good quality high use filter kit with variation in filter density at a great price.
