alex sell the filters any buy 72mm. the use of lens hood is very important both for flare/contrast control and for protection. since you bought the setup used. make sure the IS is working on the 28-135 since it is know for it to go bad.

Just became proud owner of EOS 3 and 28-135 USM IS. :-) This lens has 72mm filter thread, but I used to 77mm, so all of my previous (Minolta mount) lenses were standardized for 77mm size which resulted in all the filter to be 77mm. Now I would certainly prefer to be able to utilize the filters so consider buying 72-77mm step up ring (in which case I will have to figure out 77mm lens front cap). Any experiences with 28-135 stepped up to 77mm this way ? Should I expect some vignetting due to that when using regular Hoya Super HMC UV[0] filter or Heliopan Polarizer ?
