- Lens Filters. Love them or hate them, I've been using filters since the first day I owned a camera and started shooting photos. They serve a very important purpose to protect the front of your lens!

PSA. Protect your lenses people!! 😂
Been into photography for 40+ years. I always have a protector filter on my lenses. They have have saved an expensive lens more than once.
It's solid advice, even when all my lenses now have moist/dirt/contamination rejection properties, and I still buy such filters. Expensive lenses, so I bought Hoya Fusion with similar rejection properties. Recently, my camera brand started selling protection/UV filters again. I would have bought these for an even higher price.
Several worries:
(1) Depending on the level of weatherproofing of your camera/lens combinations you need to worry about (gas, air) breathing that happens when you focus and/or zoom. This can suck dust in when the space between lens and camera gets larger because of such movement.
(2) Tint differences. Filters may have a tint (so they deviate from neutral) and one ND filter may be too warm, another too purple, etc. That may not be a big problem as long as all your lens/filter combinations are the same.
(3) A protection filter that cuts out UV may also cut out the extremes on the visible blue side, thus impacting blue and purple tints. Make sure to test that, especially when your camera (brand) is weak in representing such blue and purple tints.
(4) Especially with the cheap filters always have a hood on the lens. Especially with the cheap filters don't be afraid to put a ring of vaseline on them for portraits with a blur-vignette rather than a light-dark one (but remember it has been done a million times already).
I never use uv fllters. That said, I always have a clear filter on my lenses. It's saved me tens of thousand of dollars in saved glass over the last thirty years.
Most photographers agree with what you said about not covering your nice glass with a cheap filter... most also follow that up with unless you need it to protect from debris at a shoot. If you are getting covered with dust, dirt, sand, water, or something like that then yea of course you add it for protection.
I ALWAYS use a lens hood. Have done for decades. I never use a protection/UV filter. Drop a lens on concrete with any filter and there's a good chance it will bend the filter thread and f**k up your lens anyway. Pointy rocks will go through the filter and damage your lens anyway. I've dropped lenses and damaged hoods - I've never damaged a lens. Flying dust, even from a helicopter, will not damage the glass of your lens as long as you don't wipe the lens with dust and grit on it. Lenses are extremely hard.
Of course. But there are some exceptions. I had one that my brother tried to take a piece of dust with his nail, and it made a nasty gash on the coating. That’s why I always shoot with one in a dusty environment
@@W1th3rrose That's why I said don't wipe a lens with dust on it. Also, picture quality is far worse with a dusty filter in front of the lens than it is with dust on the lens.
@@Perceptence Yes. If you wipe a dusty lens you are raking whatever is in that dust across the surface of the lens. There could be sand, glass or even metal in there. I always use a blower and a lens brush, then only use a lens cloth afterwards if necessary.
@@stew_redman Yes, I agree, but if you are using a lens in which the front element extends to the edge of the lens hood like I have, you may consider using a filter. Also, the coating on my lens is very weak and I prefer to keep it safe from dust and dirt. It is also a macro lens, so I have to get up very close. I feel like if the circumstances apply, you should use one.
@@W1th3rrose We'll have to agree to disagree. If your lens hood doesn't cover all edges of your lens is it even a lens hood? Sounds useless! Weak lens coatings? Maybe fragile coatings on vintage lenses, but modern coatings on quality lenses are very tough.
Basically,, use protection
I got my first camera early this year, and the shop gave me a $2.50 clear filter. My lens glass would've been done for had it not been for that, so yeah, definitely a good tip.
I wouldn't say always. More so for the photographers who are in close range with athletes, vehicles in rocky and sandy areas, and other danger like areas.
I agree. It is useful to use a UV filter. It is easier to clean a filter than a lens. A good filter, with all the coatings, costs about a 100 dollars.
I’m a filter and lens hood user. I cringe when I see someone use a lens hood in reverse. I do t understand why they do it.
I never use a protective filter, except when I shoot somewhere where there's potential damage to the lens like dust or sand. The filters also don't take up a lot of space, so I carry them with me
Uv filter, no.
Modern lens don't need them.
Use a good clear protetor filter.
Hoya or BW.
👍
The deduction of image quality isn't very significant in my opinion, so why not put a clear filter over your lens?
Why photographers put filters in front of a lens instead of between lens camera body?
Photo camera doesn't need them often...but some cinema camera nowdays comes with built in ND filters
@@ritikrana9418 if camera doesn't need it why there are so many lens filters? Full frame matrix is 2 times bigger than 42mm lens, so they should be twice cheaper?
Just like a case or screen protector on your phone. A $20 case to protect your $900 phone. I've put a full body case on every phone I've ever owned and never once broken the phone. Scratched the hell out of my case and dropped it multiple times. Always fine.
dont forget to saran wrap the whole thing for underwater shoots.. last time i did one in miami and after i came back I turned the camera upside down and 600 to 700 gallons of water came out... almost ruined the camera. lense was ok though
b+w is THE best. of course hoya and others are not bad at all
I hate UV filters because you get this dot of a lens flair randomly and also a chance to have like the literal image reflection. I shot a shot of a bright door with another reflacted door
That's what cheap uvs with no coatings do. The expensive ones rarely affect image quality in any measurable way.
First and great vid will definitely have to take that into consideration in future
Agreed.
is there a lens filter where it only sees green colors and block all other colors?
No but on most cameras there is a mode you can turn on. I have an x-t5. I switch the drive mode and push a function button and it cycles through the colors like you are talking about. I got a great shot if some bananas on my counter using this "drive mode". I don't know what camera you have but there's more than one way to do it. Most photo editing software can do it too.
Where would you suggest buying lens filters other than Amazon? I do astrophotography just I case it changes the answer
B&H
Damn this is good ❤❤
I'm a true believer when it comes to buying quality equipment and eccesories but I'm also a believer that spending a lot of money on buying expensive toilet paper isn't any better than buying regular 2ply that does equally the same (...if not better than!) the expensive $tuff!!

Sometimes I'll record 2 versions of a video with the same idea, but a slightly different take. In this case I felt it was worth posting both!
