nearly Shakespeare I just read the Nikon filter flyer. All multicoated Filters have a "C" in Filter designation. These are: L37C UV-filter, L1BC Skylight, and NC Clear Glass. The small paper which you get, when you buy a filter says the same. NIC Nikon integrated coating only for the above. Thus all other filter (including polarizer) must be not coated (or single coated?). Nikon says about the NC clear glass: the multicoating reduces flare, enhances colors and contrast. (translated from German flyer). I can not really follow the Nikon reasoning here. A filter is always an additional glas surface. When it is multicoated it lets light thru. If the next lens element is not coated you get flare there, thus you have not won a lot. Someone mentioned to me, if you have a small scratch on the lens, which produces flare. Take a black marker and paint it black (rolling stones). No flare from the scratch. If you want to reduce flare of a non coated lens, put the lens caps on it ;-) Best wishes Tom WANTED: Participants for Transportation Survey For a research project about the future of long range transportation I need professional participants.
