I won't use a filter on any lens, not matter how valuable, unless I require filtration. I figure there's not much point in buying superior lenses and then shooting through a piece of inferior glass. Even if the filter is of optimum quality, it's adding an unnecessary element and limiting the effectiveness of the lens. However, I can understand that some prefer to protect their investment. I like to buy lenses from those folk :-). Paul On Jun 18, 2006, at 2:16 PM, Boris Liberman wrote:
