I have a few Tian Ya brought from the mass seller here and observed the following :

Product label
1st filter with TIAN YA wording on the filter.

2nd and 3rd brought without TIAN YA wording on the filter.

4th filter with TIAN YA wording on the filter.


Same product different density
The 3rd and 4th are the same type of filter but have different density.
The 3rd without the TIAN YA wording allow more light to pass through and with slight defect.
The 4th with TIAN YA wordin being darker, allow less light to pass through.


I am wondering if there are fake copies of TIAN YA around?
 

just a question, do you think there are people bothering to fake a cheap product, e.g. akira?

have you seen fake akira products? no? maybe if you think about why there is incentive to try to fake products, one reason could be that they are trying to pass off the fake product as a real one. one other reason is that the design is popular, so they just copy and then kope the name conveniently while mangling it slightly.

tian ya is not exactly a brand that would fall under either of these two categories.

the reason why you are seeing inconsistencies is simply because the quality control of the brand (being a cheap brand) is erratic.

i still don't understand why you would even think that anyone would want to fake tianya.
 

nobody will want to fake low price products,
and the QC issue is very common on most MIC products.
 

NM and CL thanks for the reply.

Probably the word 'fake' used in the first post had channelled towards a different direction on what I am seeking for opinion.

I believe in paying for a low price for a product/service should not be short charge for it.
I owned Akira products and they work well for what they are designed to do.
$12 is still $12 worth the effort probably for some vendor.

Not complaining against TIAN YA as I do take it as a $12 product but would like to share the experience of owning it.

There is such a noticeable deviation for the product as I mentioned.
I will post the visual comparison to share.


Anyone have TIAN YA filters withou the letter on the filter itself?
