[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 344456, member: 9521"] I use a clear glass filter 100% of the time when shooting near the ocean or in places with a lot of blowing dust. Not so much to protect the lens element from impact (which it might) but rather to keep it clean and away from the salty air. Seems to me that the less you have to touch that main element the better off you are. Be aware, however, that UV filters possess no advantage over clear glass filters since digital sensors do not suffer the same issues with UV that film does. [/QUOTE]
