which filter

[stephenb]

Just got me a new lens and I now need to get a 72mm uv type filter and polariser but is it worth spending £50 or more or would a £10 one do. Is there really that much difference between them?

 

[whitewash]

well its another peice of glass in front of the lens, so a crap one will show through

personally i wouldnt by anything less than hoya/hama

I made the mistake of buying a well branded cheap one.

It was a mistake.

Buy the best that you can afford.

 

[P-E]

Buy the best you can afford if you feel the need to have a filter on.

I use Hoya Pro multi coated or B+W ones.
