A clear (colorless) filter for color as well as black and white films. Also serves as a permanent lens protector. Multi-coated to minimize reflection at the filter surfaces which reduces flare and ghosting.

I know Nikon makes awesome glass, and after spending really big bucks on a new VR lens, getting the best quality filter on the front of it to protect it is a no brainer.
This filter is well built and the optic quality is excellent and what you'd expect from premium Nikon glass...
I DO wish Nikon charged a little bit less for what is only a protective filter, but you get what you pay for and when you are paying for a top-level lens, it is foolish to skimp on a cheap filter that could hurt optic performance.
So be smart and order your clear filter the same time as you get your lens and put it on your lens the instant you unpack them both for safe insurance...
PS - In over 25 years as a working pro photographer, I can not count the number of lenses I have seen saved from total ruin by simply having a filter on the front end. I've also seen many expensive lenses ruined because they did NOT have a filter and the front element took the abuse of liquids, impact, etc. Be smart - practice safe photography and put a filter on it! :-)

Comments about Nikon 77mm Clear NC Glass Filter:
I always put a filter on my lenses the moment I buy them so the front elements stay protected. Here is a clear option instead of getting a UV or skylight filter. Good value for multicoated filter.

Comments about Nikon 77mm Clear NC Glass Filter:
Compared this NC filter to the many others I have and noticed it is simply more clear than the rest. UV filters aren't necessary for digital cameras anymore. More light = better. Want less light, use a ND filter or a polarized filter.

I purchased this Nikon NC filter for my new Nikon 10-24mm lens. It is an amazing filter as many other reviewers also suggested. Now I'm assured that my expensive lens is well protected.
BH provided great price and very fast shipping.

I have it on my 24-70mm 2.8G at all time to protect it, I like its name on the ring, "Nikon NC 77mm Made in Japan", it just looks good on my lens, but most importantly, it is really clear, no extra reflection, compare to other protector I had before.

Had been using BW filters for my lenses, but I figured, "I've never regretted buying a NIkon brand product, so why not?". Can't tell it's on and it's nice and easy to clean

I've been using Nikon NC filters for every lens I've bought. The 77mm I recently purchased again didn't disappoint. It does the job of protecting my Nikon lens without distorting the quality. Highly recommended.

Comments about Nikon 77mm Clear NC Glass Filter:
The glass in the cheap off brand filter I was using for my 80 - 200 mm lens fell out while shooting portraits of a bride. Embarrassing and unprofessional. Now my front element has a couple small scratches from not having one of these giving it protection. Expensive to replace. Get one and you can clean your lens with a shirt while working and protect your lens from scratches.

This is the best you can get to protect your Nikon lens glass. Clear in every way, no visible color casting or loss in image quality.
I usually work without it in the studio because it is not need for protection. When I'm working in a harsh environment outdoors I always have it on the lens for protection. I have one of these for each of my lenses and feel it is a good investment. I had my tripod unexpectedly tip over in the field and the front of a $1400.00 lens hit a rock and the filter cracked. But because the filter was on the lens there ended up being only minimal damage to the zoom. The optics were untouched. I sent the lens to Nikon and they repaired it like new for $100.00. If the optics would have been damaged the most likely too expensive to repair.
