As the title suggest I've just got these 2 lenses but no filters for them.

Has anyone got any suggestions for good UV filters as I have no idea where to start. So many makes, so many sizes, such a difference in price :gag:

PS I tried searching but couldn't think of good enough search terms
 
Really? Oh you do surprise me. Everyone has told you, "You need a filter to protect the lens" I was thinking about £20 each.
 
I wouldn't bother either... use the hood....

It's mostly salespeople tell you that ;)
 
+1 for the above advice. Always have a hood on to protect the front of the lens and at the same time you are helping the contrast and reducing flare in your pics. Do I have quality filters for my lenses ? Yes but only when environmental conditions require it.
 
OK, so I just got a canon lens hood for both my lenses. They came with crappy filters but I'll probably just keep them for when I'm in the desert ;)

Cheers for the heads up fellas

Are those ND filter packs worth it where you can slot numerous different square filters into one adapter?
