Is this the Hoya HMC UV(0) or the Hoya HMC Super UV(0) 49mm filter made in Japan? If it is not specifically one of these two, I do not want it.

The one I bought was a 77mm and it was a "C". I'm pleased with the performance and if you Google around you can find test data where it scored quite nicely. http://www.lenstip.com/113.4-article-UV_filters_test_Description_of_the_results_and_summary.html

This is the 77mm Hoya filter. The product I received specified "Hoya HMC multicoated filter UV(C)" and is made in Philippines. I'm happy with its quality.

The one I bought was a77mm (C). I'm pleased with it's performance using it primarily to protect an expensive lens from wind-blown desert sand. If you Google around you can find info and test results where it did quite nicely. Try http://www.lenstip.com/113.4-article-UV_filters_test_Description_of_the_results_and_summary.html

The item is listed as a 77mm filter, not 49mm. It is not listed as 'super', but it is a digitally multi-coated glass filter. Good luck!

I bought a 67mm UV filter and a 67mm Circular Polarizing filter. I bought the adapter from Amazon but it was sold by New West Direct. This adapter does screw onto the camera body as Jo Art has said and works great. From the imprint on the adapter ring it appears that the adapter is essentially a 51mm-67mm converter. After buying it I wondered whether it might have been better to buy a 51mm-56mm or 51mm-57mm or even a 51mm-58mm step-up adapter ring and use some of the filters I already have.

Hoya Standard filters have one layer of anti-reflectant coating to each surface of the glass to suppress reflection and increase light transmission. HMC (Hoya Multi-Coated) have 3 layers of anti-reflectant coatings on each surface to reduce average reflection down to 3.0% or less. Hoya S-HMC (Super HMC) also have 6 layers of anti-reflectant coatings. Finally, the Super HMC PRO 1 is made of thinner glass (only 1mm thick), also with 6 layers of anti-reflectant coatings bonded to each surface of the glass.

I'm sorry, I don't have the packaging and there is nothing on the filter itself indicating where it was made. I did compare it with the original filter when I swapped them and it appears to be exactly the same in every detail.

Mine said it's made in Japan on the lens. I bought mine when this fist came out though

Skip the UV filter entirely and just keep the polarizer on the lens. UV filters are useless, while polarizers are the most useful filter you will ever have... both outdoors and indoors. Depending upon which polarizer you purchase, they will not subtract much if any more light than a UV filter, (the Hoya HD filters are the best, but expensive). I would never shoot anything without a polarizer.

The picture CLEARLY shows the UV(0) filter, made in Japan. The UV(c) is made in the philippines and NOT the same. I ordered the (0), but if I get the (c) instead...it will have an all expenses paid trip BACK where it came.

I had the 52mm it is 5/16" thick. Oh ! it made in Japan. I did had a few 77mm but not Hoya. Hoya made a good filter but not the best one.

Good luck!! It comes from China. They are great about selling but forget it if you have a problem. I have a faulty O ring which leaked thru the floor into the basement. The seller does not respond to my request for a new O ring. Do I have to buy another filter? Great machine when it works but there are multiple problems

Filter 39mm. Same as the 60mm xf. I bought mine on amazon Fuji manufactured it. If 39mm size no longer on amazon B&H audio video will have it. Top line filters are made by B+W.

The best value in a protection filter is the Hoya 58mm DMC PRO1 Clear Protector Digital Filter. I can't believe that price. I recently purchased a used Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 it came with a Sunpack UV filter, which destroyed the image quality of the lens. I took a couple pictures with no filter, to make sure I was going to keep the lens, then promptly ordered a Hoya Pro1 Clear filter for it. The larger 67mm filter for the Tamron, is 3 times what the 58mm is selling for, but, well worth it. There is NO degradation in image quality using the Hoya Pro1 Clear filter.

I have no idea. The whole camera was made in Japan, and there is no indication that the lens was made in another place. I suggest you call and ask. Their number in the US: 800-211-7262.

I just looked at mine and it shows "B+W 58 010 UV - Haze 1x MRC". Not sure if you can specify the exact one you want in this listing. The manufacturers website is at: https://www.schneideroptics.com/Ecommerce/CatalogItemDetail.aspx?CID=630&IID=5722 B&H Photo says the filter factor is 1.0.

Hmmm not exactly sure I know the lens is made in japan. So it's not American made. But I have it and it has been good to me

It is genuine lens, made in Japan and imported. I don't buy expensive things from grey market.

Sorry for the late response, i ordered the GE filters but received ULTIMA Brand CBC-10 Carbon Block Filters made in Taiwan. I contacted them and got a full refund and they told me to just keep the filters.

You can purchase the filter from Japanese online stores - and can try "Kenko.com". I have provided a more specific answer in another question that was asking about the purchase of the filters. Do check that out.
