I spray all of my lenses with Rhino Coat and then take pictures with a P&S.

I almost never use protective filters on any of my lenses. I have Pentax SMC filters for my larger lenses (16-50/2.8, 28-70/2.8 and 80-200/2.8) but I use them only on rare occasions when I know I'm going to be in adverse environmental conditions for an extended period. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
