B+W 49mm Master Clear MRC Nano 007M Glass Filter

B+W has always been my go to filter. I’ve noticed recent reviews talking about the cloth pouch replacing the original hard case. Their reviews reflected the case and not the filter itself.When my filter arrived, it came with a leather pouch. It was in perfect condition and I really liked the knurled material on the outer ring.Will I miss the hard case? Sure, but I’m not going to ding the company for doing that. Especially since I’ve relied on their filters for all these years. Besides, this leather ouch provides a classy touch.I haven’t tested the new nano coating and will report back if there are any issues.It’s a B+W filter at its finest. There’s no degradation in image quality and the filter itself feels top notch. (Like all of the others I’ve purchased.)If a hard case is important to you, then there are other brands out there to choose from. I’m going to stick with B+W.

I always buy protection filters from B+W and have never been disappointed. It comes in a nice leather case/ pouch which is very handy when I want to remove the filter on spot.

What happened to B+W is beyond imagination. They ditched the case and go with a bag inside a box for packaging. When I got the filter, there are already scratch marks on the coating. Returned right the way.
