Ugh. Do you even need a test to show the effect of shooting with those on? I can understand using it as a lens cap, but that's about where it's usefulness ends.
Indeed, they are great. I have some old ones, but they aren't coated so I have to be careful where I use them.

Kenko is manufactured by Hoya.

Your lens won't erode. As long as you're using a rocket blower before using a lens pen or cloth, you'll be fine.
If I was doing a UV, I would be going with a B+W or Heliopan. There's no point having a great lens and slapping on simply "good" piece of flat, uncoated glass on the front.

Yeah, that would look goofy. On Nikon's completely oversized lenses, though, it will probably look right at home.
But that is a good point. Even on an FA50, a 77 w/step-up would look out of place. I suppose it depends on how you're using it. The polarizer will be more carry around for me, I'd imagine, where the NDs will be shoot specific.

Yup. Best thing I did on my brand transition is re-evaluate my filters. Just went with 77mm CPL and ND filters. Got a step-up for any sized lenses I need to use on.
