last time, I brought up this issue I almost had my head chopped off by the
list, but I went ahead anyway, it is like a car insurance, I used a slim
version heliopian. I think if u don't use a slim version, you will have v...
problems. any opinions out there on the new .58

Tina,
I may be missing something here, but a UV filter cuts light?? OK,
some, but can you measure it?
(BTW I have no feelings one way or the other on this issue - it's a
personal choice, not right/wrong.)
Nick.
