B+W German made optical filters. Original German/US market product not an ASIAN MARKET FILTER.
B+W filters are consistently rated 5 stars in reviews and the reason is simply that the Germans make the best optics. Suppliers to such esteemed names as Hassleblad and Leica over the years. B+W brand filters are a product you can use with confidence knowing that they will not degrade your images... infact they will in many cases enhance and improve them.
Do not make the mistake of buying cheap filters, even those big consumer brands will degrade your photos they affect the contrast and sharpness and even worst cause flare. You are better off without a filter on your lens than fitting it with a cheap one. It is like putting cheap tyres on a car...... you get the performance you paid for.
B+W filters will perform as good as or better than your lens optics. Guaranteed! You have invested in a good camera and lenses for good images... do them justice with some good filters.
B+W Filters are mounted in full brass rings which has been anodised with a special matte black finish that will not create flare. The glass is cut from blocks of Schott glass (the same glass used for Leica and Zeiss lenses) then ground and polished flat just like a high quality lens element. B+W is one of two manufacturers who does this... all the rest just stamp them out of sheet glass in massive quantities hence their lower price and performance.
Like any good product COPIES ABOUND........BUYER BEWARE!
B+W filters like Rolex watches attract the copy cats and the fakes can look pretty darn close to the original but what sets them apart is price. The fakes are cheap and usually sold out of HK or similar locations.
To confuse matters even more B+W makes a cheaper range of filters for the Asian market which are in a different mount, while we are told the glass is the same the mount is not it is a cheaper alloy. Some eBay sellers sell these out of HK check the description carefully.
Can you trust dishonest Sellers who offer to break the Law
Buyers should be aware of sellers that happily offer to break the law by declaring goods as gifts or reducing the price for customs....if they are that desperate to sell the product then what else would they do. Often you see or read the following from some less srupulous sellers.......
- All packages will mark as "gift" and declare a reasonable value or base on your instruction.
Avoid these sellers like the plague if they are prepared to break the law how trustworthy can they be?
