I use this drop in filter holder that excepts any threaded 52mm filter of your choice.Although you should make sure the filter is slim enough first.Though I found B+W f-pro filters work fine.So I don't think the filters need to be super slim.

A little pricey,but I think it's a little less fiddly than cutting out my own filters.

Robert,

I'm shooting over water, want to keep contrast crisp and cut back on those blues and purples.  Need to stay at 1/2500 with as low ISO as possible so sometimes I'm at 320 ISO.

So many choice in 52mm UV filters.  I see some with rated UV values,  Have you found better results with some vs. others?

Thank you

Tony
