Yep, been there, done that! I've lost two or three Hoya filters that way, and a couple of times it's been because the retaining ring has unscrewed through friction with my clothing (I always carry the camera with the lens pointing into my body - it feels better balanced that way), and the first I've known is hearing the tinkle of expensive optical grade glass smashing on the pavement.

Has this ever happened to you? Sportin' a new Hoya Super HMC Pro UV filter. Walk around town doin' stuff, hoping for some good street shots, but none eventuate. Come home, and find the lens sans filter.

Screw those filters on tight, kids.
