How to identify a fake filter | UV filter | protective filter.
In this video I cover the different ways to identify a genuine UV filter (protective filer) from a fake UV filter. Over the years I have bought a number of fake, and genuine, UV filters on Amazon and eBay, and I have worked on some simple ways to tell the difference between a fake and a real filter. I should also note that even though the filters are called UV filters, most of them do not block UV rays and they area really just protective filters, to protect the front element of your lens. Modern Digital cameras have the UV filter built into the sensor, so blocking UV rays is no longer necessary.
