Re: Traveling to India: should I get a filter for my Canon EF 24-70 F/2.8 Mk II lens?

While I ordinarily avoid filters religiously, this B+W filter would be an excellent choice to protect that massive 82mm front element on the 24-70 f/2.8L II. I always use the lens hood, of course, but the hood is rather shallow with this lens and this filter would be a good choice if you are getting situations involving rain, dust or beach sand.
