Hi guys im looking at getting some UV filters for my lenses. But I am a bit lost I was going to go with the Kenko Pro 1 as its just the same as the HOYA Pro 1 but im how likely it is that the filter are going to be fake. Cheked out the net and theres not much out there about fake filters so anyone know how i would tell

Kenko PRO1 UV 77MM filter £11.99 + £5 p&p
Kenko PRO1 UV 82MM filter £14.99 + £5 P&P

Very unlikely to be fakes I would have thought. Most filters eminate from just a handfull of manufacturers and differ only in the brand name applied.

Suppose if they could put out fake Sandisk cards they could put out fake Kenko filters:shrug:

Safest option I would say is to deal with reputable dealers/sellers both online and in real life

Those are stupid prices for quality filters. I suspect they're fakes.

Im no expert when it comes to filters but i'd be inclined to agree with StewartR just doesn't seem right, sort of too good to be true :shrug: jmo
