When in a hurry, after damaging a Tiffen FLD last year, I bought a replacement Hoya (it was all I could find in San Diego--they are cheap so stores stock 'em) and jetted off to shoot job in Atlanta without testing. The frames shot with the Hoya (as compared to the Tiffens on other lenses) where so far off color that I had to return to Atlanta to reshoot part of the job. Hoyas will never touch my cameras again! I tried to reach Hoya and rep, but neither returned phone calls. I wanted my money back. So do me and yourselves a favor--don't buy Hoya, even in desparation. donal __________ Donal Philby San Diego www.donalphilby.com
