Excellent filters, absolutely necessary for some specific jobs
As posted on the page for the 0.9 density filter:Bought this with Tiffen's 0.3 and 0.6 filters. Why?Tiffen are great quality for the price. I'm happy to use the filters by stacking them, although I may go with a variable ND filter in the future. This time, I decided there was more potential for something to go wrong in the design of a variable ND filter, so I wet for three separate pieces of glass that can be stacked. It is more bulky, but this kind of kit is small anyway, and it was cheaper than the variable ND.My glass arrived quickly and is very high quality. Completely satisfied with the purchase.Best uses for this equipment:1) Video work. If shooting video on your dSLR, you want control over the shutter speed. In most cases you'll want to be shooting at 1/50th or 1/60th of a second. Shutter speed affects the quality of the video, how action is rendered, in a way that is distinct to still photography. But shooting at these shutter speeds may restrict the aperture and/or ISO you can then select for a correct exposure. So, you pop one (or more) of these on your camera to get you to the aperture/ISO you want.2) Landscapes where you want to blur clouds/water/other moving things.3) If you want to shoot with studio strobes and/or speedlights to control the direction and nature of the light in your image, but you also want shallow DoF in the image. These filters are brilliant for this, and you can get really creative with it - this is how I use my filters most of the time, as I specialise in portraiture and video work.Someone posted that they're not very creative filters but, once you understand how they work, you'll find the precision they grant you enable you to get very creative indeed!

second-hand
I ordered this filter because I thought that Tiffen is very goog quality product. I was disappointed when I opened envelop. The case protecting filter was scratched a lot and was easy to see that it had been opened already. When I opened case and looked on the filter against the light I saw stains.Also screw holding glass inside was loose. I`m 100% sure that Tiffen 58ND3 was used before. I`m disappointed because I was expecting brand new item,not second-hand.

Quality from Tiffen, as you would expect. (-1 star as via amazon warehouse so no origional packaging)
Quality from Tiffen, as you would expect:-came via 'amazon warehouse' so I can not vouch for this items authenticity, as it did not have the origional packaging, (hence -1 star) but seems genuine.Well made, no abberations, and good thread.

avoid these filters
Bought in 67mm for a Canon 70-200mm f4 IS lens, the filter arrived, and low and behold it looked like it had been opened already and tried, tell tale signs of trying to get a stuck filter off a lens, I know i had to remove one once and its not easy, If i had to would I order another one? NO, but fair play to Amazon customer service they replaced the item right away, arrived in a couple of days (bank holiday) and the replacement is in mint condition, but I wont be ordering anymore Tiffen filters in a hurry, only Hoya or B+W filters, only 1 star as the quality of the original item was unacceptable.

Nice
Ok filter, glass is great and the build quality is really good. However it is a very light filter, you really need the .6 and .9 ones also. Overall a great item.
