Hi,
Jusst bought a new 450D from Japan, need the following advice.
Using kit lens at the moment, and in the near future, do not have any plans to buy lens.
My colleagues were suggesting to get at least a UV filter to protect the lens. Some actually suggested that using a CPL could be more useful, as it even has polarising effect. However, was warned that for kit lens at 18mm, there may be vignetting dur to average CPL.
Went to Cathay Photo@MS, and one Sales guys intro tokina UV ($12) and Tokina CPL ($35) to me. When I asked about the concerns, he said no problem at all, and mentioned that Hoya is actually same as Tokina, as the latter is the OEM.
Can anyone here advise?
