for my 18-55 kitty,
and no I don't intend to by and lens in the coming months...
Not even nifty fifty...
well if I do want to buy a lens, I'll go a telezoom (50-200L if dad want belanja or 55-250 if uses own mioney).

At RM 205 is pretty good price. IMHO, I don't see a point to purchase/spend on a CPL for the kit lens. 58mm filters is not easy for re-use in the future once you upgrade lens.

The problem is 58mm. Buying something like CPL or ND filter, you got to make it usable on all lenses with different thread.

If you get one 77mm CPL, you can get one set of step up right and it will be usable for all range of lenses (with different thread size).
But for a 58mm CPL, not much lenses can utilize it (especially those with above 58mm filter thread). Hence, I say it's not a very good investment.

However, if you are very sure that you gonna stick with the 18-55 for very long time, then it's pretty much justified.
