Adorama Filter Wrench. Set of 2. Fits 46-58mm Filters
New cameras has a lot of plastic parts and I has a dificult to put the filter in lenses. I think it's a good tools for it.
works great but give me a break on shipping [Posted on 2008-07-16]
Works great but the shipping was a killer. But they were one of the only places that you can even buy these things so I guess you pay the price!
Great for circular polarizers and other filters [Posted on 2008-08-05]
If you have filters on your camera, whether it's a UV filter that is on the lens 99% of the time, or you change filters often, then I highly recommend getting these lens wrenches. This product is particular useful in loosening my B+W Circular Polarizer because the wrench can lock onto the screw-in portion of the filter, instead of the rotating outside layer. The one time that I couldn't get my UV filter off and I didn't have the wrenches around, I really regretted it. Now I carry them with me in my camera bag all the time, since they don't take up much space. I bought these and the larger size ones, and since there are two wrenches in each pack, I gave one set to a friend.
Beware though, if you tighten your filters onto your lenses with as much force as you're tightening the pipes in your bathroom, then you're going to have trouble getting the filter loose with any product.
I agree that the shipping cost from the vendor is pretty high for this product. I have the luxury of living in NYC, so I just walked over and got these in person. If you know someone in NYC, get them to pick these up for you. Or you can save up a bunch of items and order them all at once to save on shipping.
Disappointed [Posted on 2008-09-07]
When up on a 58mm filter it feels like it is about to break, and it doesn't even grip enough to turn the filter.
Item didn't fit my camera [Posted on 2008-09-27]
Still waiting response to my email from seller about returning the Filter Wrenches. - didn't fit my camera
