The Tiffen 77mm Ultra Clear Digital HT Filter is a simple, clear filter designed for general protection for your lens. This optically clear filter does not affect the overall image quality while helping reduce dust, scratches, moisture, and other elements from damaging your lens. Its Water White glass construction is optically pure and maintains consistent light transmission and clarity.
The Digital HT coating is a high transmission multi-coating that surpasses military specifications for hardness and durability. This optical purity combined with high scratch-resistance results in an easy-to-clean filter with superb imaging quality. They also feature low-profile titanium filter rings for increased strength and vignetting reduction.
- Clear filter offers general protection for your lens against the elements.
- Water White glass is optically pure for providing notable image fidelity and clarity.
- Digital HT multi-coating provides increased strength, durability, and optical clarity for greater light transmission and protection against scratches.
- Tiffen filters are made using ColorCore technology; a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass, grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, then mounting to precision metal rings.

Comments about Tiffen 77mm Ultra Clear Digital HT Filter:
I just purchased two of these filters. One for my new 50-150 and the other to replace the Tiffen UV on my 17-55 (which was still flawless after four years on my lens but I wanted the extra assurance of the ht coating). I just shot 5000 frames in the less a day and a half. I was outside in the sun, a little rain, and then inside a near dark theatre. The filters got a pretty fair test. The coating is a noticeable difference when you clean the filter. It has a tackiness to it compared to the regular UV. I don't know about the other reviews for this filter but for other clear Tiffen filters I saw a lot of bs about green flares that you get from shooting directly into artificial light, not from the filter, ignore all that. My only concern when I received these was that the filter ring is a silver/titanium color. I know the description says it's titanium, but I assumed it would still be a black ring. Perhaps that's a typical thing, I'm not sure. I was a little concerned that it might have some reflective qualities that could effect the images by bouncing extra light into the lens, but so far I have seen nothing that indicates that. It looks kinda odd on the lens when you have gold rings and then this bright silver filter, but the hood covers it when shooting.

Comments about Tiffen 77mm Ultra Clear Digital HT Filter:
I spent over $1000 for my lens because of it's quality. I wanted to keep it protected from scratches, but not at the expense of my photos. I can't see any degradation in the quality of my photos. and the addition of the filter cannot be seen in the viewfinder at a 24mm wide angle lens setting.

Comments about Tiffen 77mm Ultra Clear Digital HT Filter:
This is agreat filter that won't affect your images. Some UV filters can dim your colors a little, so for me, Ultra Clear is the way to go for protection. The filter comes with a great padded case to store it in as well.

Comments about Tiffen 77mm Ultra Clear Digital HT Filter:
I purchased this filter primarily for lens protection. I previously used a UV filter as lens protection until I read how UV filters can negatively affect picture quality so I decided to use the plainest filter as possible. Very pleased with this filter and its price point.
