Ben, thanks for the info on the hoods. i'll be getting those. what's your take on the UV filters? i'm seeing conflicting advise on UV filters all over the web... some says its not actually useful... degrades the sharpness irregardless of the quality of filter.. some says it adds some punch to the images for certain conditions of lighting.. if it is so why don't the manufacturers include it if it could improve the quality of lenses... just wondering if its good to have one or waste of money...

I’m in the other camp.  Skip the (protective) filters and stick with the hoods (unless the environment requires a filter).  Then use only the best (I like the B+W MRC).
