I've never been able to afford "high quality" filters. The el-cheapo ones
DO degrade the image slightly. I noticed this by removing a filter,
looking through the viewfinder, and then holding the filter up to the lens.
I could see a noticable difference. Then, I took some test shots...
same scene, one photo with a filter and another photo without. The
shot with the filter on was slightly fuzzier than the filterless one.
So, since then (about 4 months ago), I've been shooting without a filter.
My results appear to be slightly sharper than before. Now, all I hafta do
is work on my composition and exposure skills! :-)))
Regards,
Chris
