Comments about Tiffen 77mm #87 Infrared Filter:
In terms of quality, this is a very well made filter (ie thread is nice, glass does not move about), case is adequate. Optically it performs very, very well.
This filter is being used most of the time on my Canon EOS 20D + Canon EF 17-40L.
Usage requires a little bit of patience/practice and some time in photoshop. Single best piece of advice I can give to ensure you get the results you want out of this filter is to read up on setting a custom white balance. Getting the white balance correct will save you endless time in photoshop down the track.
