i know B+W is well known for their super slim filters
n i heard that the thinner the filter is, the less image degrading u'll have

i thought the slim only applies to the metal ring, not the glass itself. Haha, learned something there. So is a B+W SLIM 67mm CPL filter for rm260 a good bargain?

octopus cpl filter cost less than 100. kenko 67mm should cost less than 150

yeah i know, i was just wondering is there a big difference in image quality since the price difference is quite big comparing kenko CPL with say B+W or HOYA HD
