>> The UV filter world is BS.

Two persons I know personally had problems with a lens recently.

One - Ted knows him well - got a chip in the front element of an  
expensive piece of glass due to a stone projected while shooting a race.
He didn't have a filter.

The second - Lluis met him last year - has a cat that caused the  
camera bag to fall on a tile floor.
The filter he had on was smashed in the accident but preserved the  
front glass.

Which do you like better?
