I'm using B+W XS-Pro filters exclusively on all my lenses. They are slim, and very easy to clean compare to those Hoya SHMCs I used to own.
Quality wise, I have to admit... UV filters are the same. I don't know how durable are they as I don't do drop/smash test on my filters. But I will stick to B+W just for the ease to clean them. Hoya filters are really PITA to clean; often leaves smudges and clean marks all over the filter surface. |

QUOTE(Seng_Kiat @ Jun 28 2009, 05:48 PM) So, all UV filters have the same output no matter expensive or cheap 1? .. the differences are material, and built quality? UV filter functions the same, but it differs from one another on its image quality. Best bet is to get a multicoated one, and get the top of the line if you could afford it. I would suggest you stay away from normal B+W and Hoya... get the MRC/SHMC version at least.actually, I am thinking to get a UV filter for my lens .. but have not decide yet should I go to expensive or just cheapo one .. thinking of get one 77mm uv filter with a few step down rings to fit my lenses .. good idea?..  It is not a good idea to use step-down rings... you won't fit in the original lens hood to the lens. you may share filters but I would rather plan my lens lineup wisely... I keep only lenses with 77mm diameter  |

You can't go wrong with B+W MRCs. For RM50 more you may opt for their XS-Pro which is the slim type. |
