I've seen a lot of arguments for leaving a UV or clear filter on your lens to protect it. I do that and most of the time it is fine. But today when taking pictures of a White Tern I found an angle that created a lot of glare that went away when I took the filter off. These are the before and after. I think I'll leave it off now.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHH. The debate will rage for ever and opinion's will fly.
My lens hoods have been my only protection for over 50 years of award winning photography. I also carry a rider on my insurance policy for pennies on the hundred dollars for piece of mind.
