Oh oh... looks like only Cathay Photo is the only recognized dealer. OP is not in the list! ;p

I think my b+w filter from CP (not OP) has the words 'Made in Germany' at the ring. Quite large font too Can anyone confirm what it says for the b+w filter from OP?

Anyway, I don't think any reputable company would lie about where it's made.

As for my "Slim-version B+W Cir-PL" bought(my 1st & only one B+W) from OP is stated on the ring by Germany, as well as the rest of my B+Ws from CP too.

Since my Hoya filter came out from the rim, i've since changed to B+W and so far never happen before. Currently also testing Schneider filter, which also produce B+W.

You'd think OP doesn't know what they're doing after reading all this. Doesn't inspire confidence in their shop at all.

Well... If you examine it a little closer, such trends and behaviour is characteristic of quite a number of new companies trying to bust in on an established market. *shrug*. Maybe the culture in our country and as well as their home countries have made the situation as such. :dunno:
