[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 115103, member: 9240"] Filter size is also specified clearly on the back of your lens cap. I differ sightly from these recommendations. Buy the best filter you can afford, but don't think your compromising by not spending at least a certain amount. I've got a Hoya CPF (67mm) that I'm very happy with that I spent around $60 for. I've since purchased a Marumi 77mm CPF based on the recommendation of someone here (Rick M or DaveW, I can't recall which) and am equally pleased, and it was also below $70. I prefer to have a CPF for each size (I use stepdown rings for ND filters and others), but it's a personal thing since when I'm using them they tend to stay on a while and I'll often have multiple cameras, so having them on multiple lenses is usually required. As for what they'll do for you, here's a prime example from shots I took this past week. The top photo is without a CPF, the bottom with one, adjusted to remove the glare from the top of the water. No other adjustments.[ATTACH align="left" type="full" width="30%"]27341._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
