Oooooh I just googled the NEX ultra wide converter n it's available in the UK oredi. Price is GBP120. The fisheye is GBP100. That means the UWA adapter is cheaper than my fisheye!!!!!

cheaper? should it be the other way round? hmm.gif

UWA-120
fish-100

still no one actually telling me specifically why are EXPENSIVE filters important....

a sample photo would be great between a normal UV Hoya and a Hoya HD.

This is specifically for UV filters which most of us put in front of our lenses most of the time. Other filters have specific usage and are self explanatory... tongue.gif


If you are ULTRA RICH then filters are not important. If lens glass got scratch just buy new one lor. brows.gif

If you want to protect your lens, then filters are important. They keep things like seawater, saliva, snot, bird droppings, acid rain etc from reaching the front elements of your lens thus keeping them and the coating on them in pristine condition for the best IQ the lens can deliver.

Also expensive filters can withstand more shock so they will be able to take impacts to your lens and stay intact to protect your lens.

That's why expensive filters are important. biggrin.gif

Try waiting until the sun just sets, you might be able to get purple skies with orange tint from the sun (well, it also depends on where you are too) blush.gif

When u get a scratch on the lens then u will know what is degraded IQ. laugh.gif  Buy the very best filters like B+W XS-Pro or Hoya HD  n don't worry about IQ.

Problem is can't find them in 49mm size so the best for NEX now is the Zeiss filter from Sony. Costs a fair bit at rm160 for the lil fella though.

uncle, F-Pro ok or not? ask supplier they don't have 49mm XS-Pro, only got F-Pro for RM110.
