Phenix Phoenix EX II UV Filter 72mm Unpacking

Want to give the lens with a protective mirror, just stroll around. The price of more than half a thousand can not love, the price of thirty to forty may be more detrimental quality ...

Looked at the various articles in the station's original article, then was a brand of Amway lived. Also from other places to find the next evaluation, if the comments are more objective, then this filter is more cost-effective .


So eventually chose this "domestic optical conscience", the product of the filter in this area know less, in this simple to do out of the box. If there are deficiencies, but also hope a lot of forgive me.

The family portrait, it seems that this box is a variety of caliber is universal, with the product there is another certificate. Filter products were Phoenix in the Phoenix optical security product line.


Compared to the EX generation, the second generation has 24 layers of coating, uv400 anti-ultraviolet radiation, passing rate increased to 99.8%.


It is said that the use of glass is imported from Germany, although Schott was thought of when it comes to German glass. However, the introduction of light-seeing products has not been determined to be Short....


The finite position pattern in the box can hold the filter very stably.


The greenish coating color is reflected against the sun.


1.2mm lens thickness, will not feel more dark corners and the like during use.


Aviation aluminum frame, the weight is relatively light.


From the visual inspection alone, it is quite transparent.


Taking a picture to compare, there is no change in color.

Drop of water, a perfect round water drop...


18-35 on the lens sigma 1.8. The reflection of some angles will inevitably be very obvious.


Without UV

The above picture shows no filter. The figure below shows the filter.


UV on

Compared with the original image, this filter did not produce too much influence on image quality, color, brightness, and sharpness.

However, after the filter is installed, the screen will produce visible and small distortion changes. You can drag it to the two new windows and compare them.

A number of comparisons were made, one was screwed onto the lens and the other was placed in front of the lens. This seems to happen. Disturbance caused by position changes was excluded.



to sum up:

In the current use process, all aspects are quite satisfactory. Compared to the likes of B+W and Kenko, similar to the price point, the Phoenix configuration is slightly more cost-effective than the same price (although the former is The works of these big factories in Germany and Japan are good prices and good things...)

After all, shooting outside, the environment has a variety of uncertainties, there is a protective filter or will be more at ease. From the point of view of the individual from the protection of the lens and loss of quality, this phoenix filter is still worth considering Fan.
