Hi everyone,

I know I must be getting annoying with my product questions, but I'm just wondering if its necessary to get a UV Slim filter for  the 17-40 f/4L Canon wide-angle zoom.  It will be used on 350D and 30D cameras.

madelaide:
I'm curious about this now.  I'm also buying a XTi and a 17-40 f/4L and I never thought a slim UV filter even existed.  I believe howver the PL is a bigger problem?

Regards,
Adelaide

I wouldn't think a slim filter is needed for any crop camera except the ultra wides.

I use a normal filter on my 17-85 and that uses a smaller diameter (67 vs 77 for the 17-40)

I had a normal UV filter on my 20d and never had any iussues. Still have to test it on my 5d now though.

kosmikkreeper:
I removed all my UV filters from my lenses when I realized just how badly it affected flaring and image quality (and I had the best UVs possible).

Just my 2 cents  ::)
