Rating  - Better protect that lense.
If your a newbie to DSL's like I am and you read to better your skill's, you can see it mentioned often "-to put on a protective filter over your expensive lense." I got one like this with a camera bag/kit and ordered up another one for my telephoto. It's glass/clear and has a metal ring. I'm not real sure about the haze part of this description but think Safety Glasses for your lenses. The price isn't all that bad, I don't think.
Rating - Canon UV-1 filter for the win
The quality of this product is very good. Feels much nicer than some of the cheap alternatives. I can't really say for sure how much this helps reduce the so called "haze" but I will say that it's definitely reassuring to have a protective layer between the outside world and your expensive lenses. I would recommend this product for any one who has a lens that they value.
Rating  - basic
Basic protection for your digicam.
Made in the Philippines, but built well and clear.

Thru the years, I have used UV filters on all of my photo equipment, including my newest Digital Canon, (READ my Review) for the following reasons, which may help you in several ways:
The Canon UV-1 58mm Haze filter -
* A 'Physical Protection barrier' for the front element of the lens. (Probably the Most
Important Reason), and here's Why:
* Protecting the Front Lens unique "Chromatic Coating". This 'coating' is what separates all
lenses, if the Glass is all equal, even within the same manufacturer, into categories from a
Good lens, all the way to a Superior one. Example - Minolta's Celtic vs Rokkor lenses
* Protection from dirt, dust, abrasions, and moisture. (The front lens is where all light &
images come thorough, that's recorded on film or microchip, so any Lens scratches,
abrasions, or smudges, all get recorded too). This ALSO keeps you from Damaging the
Chromatic Lens Coating!
* Easy Screw-in type, Easy to Change & Easy to Clean. That's 3 Easy's, People!
* Produce a very subtle 'Warming Effect', useful to counter the "Cooler" SHIFT and/or Colors
you sometimes get with some 'Lenses' or in bright sun or in shade. Example: Panasonic &
Pentex and some others have produced lenses with a 'Cool-Shift' lens coating and/or
microprocessor. - What this also means is that your Images will have to be 'Hue Corrected'.
* Very affordable with Excellent Benefit's. I usually buy in Pairs, so that I might have a spare,
just in case, and all pro photographers, bank on it. Just part of the 'must-have add-on's'.
