I am going to return to this thread later on... its late and I need to sleep...

But a question on lens hoods... what is the purpose of a lens hood...? Other than protecting the lens...

I have a couple of the hoods but they seem cheap and flimsy.

I now have a small collection of lenses to go with my new K-5 and almost all of them have UV filters on them.

My MAIN reason for having a filter on there is to protect my lens. Period.

I have no other reason for having a filter on my lenses except as stated above.

That being stated, what is the stated purpose of a lens filter (other than protecting the lens)?

Do they have straight up 'clear' lens filters? All the ones I have seem to have a small 'tint' to them.

Maybe we can have a discussion about the different filters and what they do and so forth. Pros, cons, whatever.
