[QUOTE="hark, post: 533482, member: 13196"] If the lens is the one with VR and takes a 77mm filter size, you might want to consider this Circular Polarizer by Hoya. I don't know if it will be discontinued, but it used to cost a lot more. If 77mm isn't the correct size, the other sizes are also offered for great prices. The 77mm costs only $48.80. Plus an advantage of this filter is that it offers a slim profile...which means it will work well for wide angle lenses. Vignetting is a concern when shooting wide angle so slim profile filters work better. Because it offers a slim profile, it isn't as easy to rotate, but slim profile filters are more difficult to find and are usually more expensive in price than non-slim filters. AND it has threads on the front which means you can add your lens cap to it when not shooting.
