[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 835402, member: 48483"] It's not the expense as much as it's what it does to photos. Unless you must use a polarizer to take out glare, or ND filters to use slower shutter speed, or use specialty filters for taking photos of the sun, filters are a bad idea to just put on a lens under the guise of protection. A UV filter can only degrade the image, not improve it. At best you hope it does not degrade it enough to notice. Another reminder video about this very subject I had pop up in my youtube feed last weekend. I have seen other accounts of similar trouble with filters. [MEDIA=youtube]3U8DrFjxrVE[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
