[QUOTE="Steve B, post: 181955, member: 15754"] I just purchased a filter for a Nikon 70-200mm f/4 lens I have on order. I went with the B+W XS-Pro filter for the following: Multi-Resistant Coating offers both protection to the glass and helps to improve light transmission and image quality. Nano coating promotes a better beading effect with water for more efficient cleaning. Constructed from high quality Schott glass for optical clarity. Brass filter ring helps to prevent jamming and provides additional strength (A lot of filters use aluminium rings which will expand or contract due to temperature changes) Yes, they are a little more expensive, but if you are going to slap a filter on the front of a decent lens at least use a decent quality filter.
