UV or skylight filters for digital
Hi,
I read somewhere that UV filters for digital SLR cameras are a waste of time because they have very little affect. ( see " Why worry about UV " at : http://dpfwiw.com/filters.htm#uv ) The skylight is apparently a cheaper, and just as effective option for digital lens protection. Is this correct ? Regards Graham |
