Great for Overall Lens Protection
In modern DSLR cameras, there is a huge argument whether UV Filters provide any benefit. I’m in the camp that says there are definite benefits. First, there are arguments that the UV filter can protect the sensor in your camera from long term deterioration caused by UV exposure. Second, a high-quality filter provides a layer of protection to the front of your camera lens. I was taking pictures at a very windy venue, and a door was caught by the wind and smacked the front of my lens before I could catch it. I was lucky that the hit wasn’t worse, but the lens did receive a small chip to the front plastic. This filter is made out of metal, screwed right on, and will protect the front of the lens from this kind of damage in the future. The lens could still get damaged in other ways, but it is a layer of protection from these unexpected bumps. In the future, if the lens gets bumped and the filter gets destroyed, I’ll be grateful that the filter took the hit instead of the lens. The filter is much cheaper to replace!
