I have one of these filters I bought for the 55-300 PLM. The filter is ok but it has a knurled edge that makes it tough to get the hood over. That being said I just ordered five of these at this price. 49mm really come in handy and that is a size they have in stock.

thanks for the heads up

Ordered two of them. They're probably not superb but at that price why not?

Did you ship them directly to Canada? It's showing $31 shipping (USD) for FedEx International Priority to Ontario, taking a bit of a bite out of the "buy even though I don't really need it" urge.

I have one of these. I am quite pleased with the quality. I would pay 10X the current sale price and be happy with it.

Then you need to buy a few more.

I have a bright green one and it is actually pretty good, especially at that price!

I just did.

I ordered two more for different lenses. Great deal, wish there were 67mm available though.

No, I have family in Florida, coming back in one month. It's worth the wait.

It's actually a good timing for purchasing polarizers. I had been looking at buying one for my new 28-105, and had already purchased a step-down ring to also use it on my FA20-35. I had been looking at a 80$ CAD polarizer. The current MeFoto purchases were each cheaper than the step-down ring, and reviews on the web suggest they are actually pretty darn good! I look forward to testing them.

Looking forward to a thorough test report as we have come to expect from you!

seriously though, your opinion on gear you test has a lot of relevance here since most sites ignore something a budget minded Pentax shooter might be interested in purchasing.

It won't be a full review of course, but as you say, I do have a habit of testing my gear. I'll be comparing sharpness with and without the filters, polarizing power, etc.

I didn't think about it when buying, but maybe I should have purchased two of each side, and created a varying ND filter

**ramseybuckeye** · 01-23-2019, 10:06 AM

The free shipping is off now, but still a great deal. I ordered two more, my first order will be delivered today. They also have some similarly priced UV filters for those that use them.
