One of the several reasons i wanted to get the Pentax 17-70 was its filter size. I have a number of 67mm filters and did not have to add to the lot. Although the Sigma is a much nicer lens IMO even with the reverse zoom, buit its a 72 mm filter. The salesman asked if i needed protection, and i told him no need i did not want any more children <ba dum> I said i'm sure i have a 72 filter some were, ( opps they are 77mm) and he said if not come back and he'll set me up, "JUST DON'T GET A SKYLIGHT" he said. I did not ask him why he thought that way, but then it started to think about it.
Why not a skylight for protection, is the UV1 better suited,??
