(because got fungus on it, and i rarely use it, and scare the fees is around 300 then i rather get a new one haha.)

Nikon centre KLCC is just a collection centre, for service they will send them to BTS or PJ branch if BTS one cannot do it. Ask there before

okay.jpg

got it thanks bro, guess i need go BTS then. i used to be live near PKNS there lol 4 months ago...

Still waiting for a call back from Nikon BTS about my lens, already been a week zzz

Also read in nikon fb they said new look coming to Nikon BTS?

Status update for my D90's thumb grip and the port cover side.. RM35 for each.. RM70 for D90... SB900 they will quote me.. later on... hopefully its cheap ._.

j-one got service camera too? good or not ? hehe

I bet you can really notice the difference even you put it at 100% ,

says you shoot 24-70mm at f/2.8.
even you use hoya hmc will show not much difference in color unless you purposely compare.

reason for high price because the glass and the material.

Are u sure bout that? According to this lens test HOYA appears to have better UV reduction.
However, because B+W is using the premium German scotch glass thus it provides more transparency than the HOYA HD.
http://www.lenstip.com/113.4-article-UV_fi...nd_summary.html

Btw, Hoya Pro1Digital has relatively same transparency as the B+W MRC but however much harder to
clean (resource from depreview).

The new nano coating sounds cool huh. But it is also 50 dollars different comparing the B+W MRC CPL USD130.50 vs. B+W XS-PRO Digital Kaesemann MRC Nano Circular Polarizer Filter USD178.50(In Australia not sure bout Malaysia).
For 50 dollars(RM150) different, u get it slimmer and "MUCH easier to clean from "VERY EASY TO CLEAN" lol! U decide.
Price based on international seller

That link .... outdated, yet using a cheap lens which is originally already prone to flare.

Hoya won't price their product expensive than the current one which is better right ?

hi guys, can i know if anyone experience this...
i m using D90 ... whenever i fire my flash with SB600, it will not have bokeh effect even using large aperture (F2.8)?
Can anyone enlighten me?

Isn't that the purpose of the test? using a lens that already prone to flare can actually emphasize the effect of the filter properly to see how well it perform. It is a filter test not lens test right?

I couldn't get a better link anyway. But its a 2009 article so shouldn't be that outdated right?

B+W filters are always more expensive because they are using the premium scotch glass(easier to clean and high transparency) as been mentioned before. This goes the same to the Heliopian(sp?) filters.

nikon NC filters also have very high transparency and easy to clean.
and they're cheaper than the hoya pro1 and b+w equivalents.
reason i guess why ppl dont go for nikon, is cos ppl think they need a uv filter which the NC isnt.

why buy UV when our sensor doesn't react to UV? hmm..marketing gimmick?

bro actually ur not comparing the exact with and without nano version. U supposed compare B+W MRC CPL vs B+W MRC CPL NANO / B+W KSM CPL vs B+W KSM CPL NANO.
CPL and KSM CPL is two different type of CPL that B+W offered. Thus if u want to make the comparison, please do it equally =)

Yet still dont have the decision either go for HOYA HD or B+W XS-PRO?

Oh my bad, but still 34 dollars different. Btw just found out that kaesemann version filters are actually suitable for Malaysia users because of the humid weather.




Definitely B+W xs-pro if money is not your concern haha!

My 77mm B+W XS-Pro UV Filter damn difficult to clean wei
