Is there some way, some how, to separate the issues of filters as lens
protection, and filters as manipulators of photographic effects? Everyone
seems to agree that there are times when it is not only "okay," but
"necessary" to use a particular filter to achieve a particular effect.
Where people "disagree" is over the question of whether the extra piece of
glass, used to protect the front element of the lens, is
necessary/beneficial/degrading of photo quality.
