Promaster 82mm Protection Filter - HGX Prime

Slipped it on my 24-70 and honestly forgot it was there—no vignetting, no weird color cast, just quiet protection. The glass is thin enough that the lens cap still fits snugly, which is more than I can say for some bulkier filters I've used.

I was worried an 82mm filter would add noticeable bulk, but this one is so slim I barely notice it’s on the lens. The glass is crystal clear and it’s already saved me from one splash of rain during a hike without affecting a single shot.

The coating seems to repel dust and fingerprints really well, which keeps my lens clean between shoots. It’s thin enough that I honestly forget it’s on there, yet it’s already saved my front element from a splash of coffee.
