I've appreciated your opinions.
It was a good thread 'Specialk', Thanks.
It really seems to be a divided topic..you either use it or you don't....no one sits on the fence.
I've bought it, so I'll use it.....it doesn't sound like it's going to be particularly detrimental to the picture quality and I'll feel happier cleaning dust and crap of the filter rather then the direct lense surface.
Time will tell.
Talk to you again soon.
Trevor.

G'Day
It sounds like we're a rare breed in this forum.
I purchased it online from The Camera Warehouse (Sydney). I found they had the best price.

Hi everyone,
I'm moving across from the 35mm film world to digital (K10D). I've purchased a Pentax DA 16-45mm F4 ED AL Lense and a UV Filter to fit it, because I have always whacked one on the front of my other (older) lenses and left it there.
I've since read that the coatings on the new lenses take care of UV light and that the filter isn't necessary. I still like the idea of protecting the lense, but am I being over cautious and possible affecting the picture quality with no real benefit gained?
Should I have picked up a Polarising lense and forgotten about the UV?
(By the way, the kit is on order, so haven't taken practice shots yet to compare difference with/without filter)
What's your thoughts?
Trevor.

I came across this forum quite by accident when researching for a replacement for my old Pentax 35mm that died.
I have placed my order today for a Pentax K10D, my first digital SLR and I'm quite excited about it.
I'm looking forward to learning from your forums and sharing some photos.
Talk to you soon,
Trevor.
