Received the Hoya 67mm multicoated slim frame UV filter as a Birthday gift in March 2010. It was much needed since the following month we had a cruise planned to the Panama Canal, Costa Rica, & several ports in Mexico. The first time I used the filter (while on the cruise) & went to take it off the camera lens. The inside section of the filter where it's seamed together snapped in half (and later I realised it's made out of plastic!) Boy was I shocked. Good thing the plastic broken piece didn't scratch my new Nikon D90 lens!
After the trip,I contacted the company & was told to send it back along with a copy of the receipt. Good thing my daughter saved the receipt & it was bought from one of their "preferred vendors" and that I had saved the case it came in.
From the paper work I received back w/the filter, it said they repaired it and their work had a 6 month warrant. Heck,they should have given me a new filter.
In fact I just looked at the filter while writing this review & it looks to me as the same problem is still there. The inside plastic piece holding the glass element has a huge space. I have had camera filters for years & have not seen this before. I would say DON'T BUY THIS FILTER.
