Waste of money.June 19, 2007 12 out of 14 found this review helpful
These filters sort of do what they are expected but they are of such low quality that sharp pictures are largely out of the question. The lens and frame both have very low design standards, lack coatings that prevent reflection/fringe, and are threaded in a manner that can cause them to become stuck on an adapter.
Spend the few extra bucks on a decent quality Hoya or B&W polarizer/clear protection filter, they are worth every penny and the S3 can be set to compensate for most indoor lighting situations.

good but a little cumbersomeJanuary 8, 2007 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
Please note that this product is NOT from Canon. This is not a huge deal except that the attachment does not lock in place like the zoom lens or close up lens you can also purchase separately. Since it does not lock in place, it is possible (though unlikely) that the filter could twist and fall off. Most amateur photographers don't need these but for those who want the extra protection and some of the effects (especially the UV or Polarized), it is a nice addition.
