The newer one I have (2nd version with the lens hood that obscures the aperture ring when retracted) is much lighter and easier to carry than the older, bulkier 1st version. You can use 'common' 49mm filters on the later ones, 48mm on the first. As I have a lot of 48mm filters I've got an adapter which allows me to use them. Performance wise I've not noticed any great difference, I'm sure there must be one/some but I changed for the weight reason.
