Jordan asked: > I don't use filters often, but can I use one UV B+W filter without problem > on the 20-35 zoom? Jordan, There's nothing 'magic' about Nikon filters. They are certainly high quality, but are not measurably better than some other brands. There are several manufacturer's of high quality filters. B+W is one, Heliopan, Tiffen and Hoya are others. Some are better than others, but none of the above are really bad. Many people keep a skylight or similar type filter on each of their lenses all the time as a means of protecting the filter threads and front lens element. I store my cameras and lenses in hard luggage-style cases, and usually only use a filter to create a special effect, such as using yellow, orange or red filters with black and white film to darken the sky area, or a polarizer or UV filter with color film to darken the sky or to increase color saturation when there is a lot of atmospheric haze.

Nothing generates so much silence as confronting a person with an undeniable truth which is contrary to that person's beliefs. Manual cameras, Luna-Pro's and stick shifts.
