    Filters and fisheye

    The 10-17mm fisheye zoom's been invading my dreams lately. I have never used a fisheye before, so I'm wondering. It's seems like filters can't be applied to fisheyes due to the buldging lens. Isn't it dangerous for the lens to be exposed without a filter to protect then? What do some of...
