Google "Hoya HD Filter packaging" and you will see the black box packaging that I have. Also, there is an article about how to spot the fake filters at ePHOTOzine dot com.

Yes, This is the authentic one. I had the same concerns. I compared the packaging and the camera to the fake package and camera shown on youtube.Here is the link if you want to watch it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICpGpF9-a4M I got mine from the seller BLUETTEK on Ammazon.Hope this helps.

I purchased mine from "Two Way Radio Wholesaler" who is supposed to be an authorized distributor. It works fine and came in a bag that looks to be official, but it does have the "EVO Q.C. Passed" hologram sticker on the package that is said to be a sign of a fake. The base has the "Nagoya" name on it in raised letters, but the "A" next to the "N" is not the correct font. I'm not sure what is authentic on Amazon anymore; they let all these dang Chinese sellers peddle their knock-offs all over the site. Basically, good luck on that one, but for $10 what can you expect I guess. I purchased mine from "Two Way Radio Wholesaler" who is supposed to be an authorized distributor.

It's fake. Bought it today and major complained to Amazon customer service. This should help you: http://myeyeshadowconsultant.com/2011/06/24/how-to-spot-a-fake-shu-uemura-eyelash-curler/

Hi. I've read that there are fakes around on ebay for sure. I can't vouch but the box here and the warranty card, manual, cloth, case - all look pretty authentic to me. The logo cut too looks pretty authentic. If you want to compare to a fake google for sample images. You pretty much can tell straightaway. The box (for fake) is a little like this but seem oversized, the logo cut is clumsy (unless "they" refined it) and the flute do not come with the above warranty cards owner's manual etc. My case is moulded plastic which has maroon velvet, my friend's son's has a case like this one.

It appears to be and was in a Nikon bag but suppose it could be counterfeit. It fits well and works good and I am happy with it.

I am using a 52mm UV filter on this camera. No problem. With a rubber hood there is a vignet problem at wide-angle. I ordered a 52mm to 67mm ring and a 67mm hood to take care of it.Great camera!

I don't have it in front of me at the moment, but the box is really poor quality, stapled together and varnished. It's nice for protecting the scope and leaving on display but is clearly cheap upon closer examination. You're paying for the telescope here, which IS really nice. Especially for the price.

It is good to be skeptical about this. I purchased one that was labeled Canon but was really a fake through a third-party retailer on Amazon. Fortunately, Amazon took it back. I'd like to think Amazon is only selling genuine merchandise but I cannot tell you about this particular one. Fortunately you can return it if you have any concerns. When you get it, take a good look at the front and back of the battery and it should be obvious if it is a fake but they are getting better. Sorry I can't be of more help.

You gotta watch what seller it's from. Amazon sometimes just like lumps all the reviews into one product page. If it ships from China, it's probably a bootleg. If it's from Japan, it's probably legit.

Hello Jungsu. I have purchased a number of items online and the best way to protect yourself is by looking at the feedback other's have left about the vendor. Also look at the reviews written about the product. I purchased mine and it is genuine.Good luck

I contacted Amazon in regards to this. Did not want to spend over $100 and get something fake I cannot even return. Make sure the seller you purchase through IS amazon, not a third party. They will guarantee satisfaction :)

When I purchased from the seller the box was not a clone. When you get it you will know and if it is return it.

Look on ebay or even better get a 40.5mm uv filter and dont worry about the cap. Makes it more of a quick draw pocket camera IMHO.

The box was sealed in what appeared to be original cellophane, but the seller was Beauty Encounter, not La Prairie. Is the product counterfeit?
