Really enjoy the capability to stream the Fire TV Cube brings to older flat screen TV's. The keypad is very ergonomic and intuitive to use. Set up is very easy.

 Hoya - 82MM NXT Plus CRPL Filter
Hoya - 82MM NXT Plus CRPL Filter
The must-have filter in every photographer’s camera bag, Hoya’s NXT Plus 82mm Circular Polarizer has 10 layers of Hoya’s patented anti-reflection (AR) multi-coatings so your images show improved contrast, color and sharpness. The filter applies a waterproof top-coat to Hoya’s polished smooth "Clear" glass for easy cleaning of dirt, smudges and water. The polarizing film is optical thin with a filter factor of 1.72 (less than 2 stops) for faster AF and improved viewing over standard PL films. Hoya’s high quality polarized glass is mounted into a precision milled aluminum slim frame, making it lightweight and perfect for all of your lenses including super wide-angle lenses. Despite the slim profile the filter includes front filter threads so you can attach additional filters or your protective lens cap. Polarizers do one thing: Remove Reflections. Think sunglasses for your lenses. By removing reflections, you reveal the color, texture and detail beneath. So, leaves are greener, skies are bluer, and the beautiful rocks at the bottom of that secret mountain lake are revealed. CRPL’s are also great for removing reflections from car windows, and painted surfaces. Depending on the lighting conditions the effect can be dramatic or subtle but it never hurts to pop it on and give it a try. Circular polarizers are easy to use too. Once attached to your lens simply rotate the outer ring of the filter while looking through your viewfinder or screen until you achieve the right amount of reflection control. When the colors and detail look right, take the picture.

This filter is a must to cut glare and aid in the composition of pictures especially when used to shoot across water or landscape scenes with a lot of sky. Very versatile lens filter for many different lighting conditions.

 Hoya - 77mm Star 6 Filter
Hoya - 77mm Star 6 Filter
The Hoya 77mm Star-6 lets you turn any pinpoint light source like Christmas lights, street lamps, car headlights, and flashlights into 6-pointed stars. Now you can turn an average, boring picture into a dynamic creation. The filter simply attaches to the front of your lens like any filter.

 Hoya - 77mm EVO Antistatic UV Filter
Hoya - 77mm EVO Antistatic UV Filter
The Hoya EVO Antistatic 77mm UV filter is your lens’ first line of defense against scratches, dust and dirt. Hoya engineers developed an ANTISTATIC coating that negates the static electric charge caused by rubbing and cleaning your filter. This prevents dust and dirt from collecting on the surface of the glass, making it great for environments where dust is common. Additionally, the hardened, antistatic top-layer is water repellent, stain, and scratch-resistant, and cleans easily when smudges or fingerprints are introduced to the surface. EVO Antistatic UV filters are made in Japan using high-performance professional grade optical glass. Hoya’s patented 18-layer super multi-coating (HMC) formula reduces or eliminates reflections on the surface of the glass and yields a 99.8% light transmission rate for incredibly sharp and colorful pictures. The filter features a lightweight, one-piece, low-profile aluminum frame. This one-piece design allows the filter to maintain perfect parallel alignment to the sensor plane for maximum sharpness, while the low-profile form eliminates vignetting when used on ultra-wide-angle lenses.

Great lens! Works seamlessly and is very versatile whether used in full auto, program, aperture priority or in manual mode. The only disappointment is the cloth bag provided as storage when the lens is not in use. Seems that a high end lens like this would have a come with an appropriately sized and insulated leather case.
