Hi Arnoud, Congrats, this is an incredible lens! My experience with my own EF 300 2.8L non"IS" was that the gels don't last as well and are somewhat less sturdy. I so I finally bought a couple of screw on filters and I did use them a bit but found that unless I had to use a filter on this lens I usually just didn't.
