Just another voice from the "amen corner." I've got lots of
filters, but unless there's a reason to use one, I don't. I know
some folks practice safe photogoraphy and keep a VU filter on at
all times to protect the lens. They are either way too cautious
or a little bit paranoid. Any lens whose performance isn't
degraded by having even the best filter on it isn't worth
protecting.
I may be wrong, but I'm not uncertain.
