[QUOTE="beantown, post: 764907, member: 49557"] First off, Mods if this is in the wrong place please move it for me. I have read conflicting articles on the need of a UV filter on a modern DSLR. I always used to run a UV filter on my film cameras. Reading articles about the use of one on a DSLR, most state the sensor isn't sensitive to UV. So what's the general consensus on this? I have a Hoya Alpha 52mm UV on my 24mm and would like to purchase another for the 50mm I just bought, for the protection alone. So is a UV filter really necessary? Or should I just buy the Nikon NC for it. Thanks in advance, Shane [/QUOTE]
