I'm just grateful that Pentax photographers of the
past had more sense and put UV filters on most of the
classic lenses such as the Takumars and K series. Some
of mine are like new at the front end when you remove the
UV

I've mentioned on here before that the UV filter is often
taken into account in the design and it does improve performance
in a lot/most of cases.

There isn't a single test site or magazine that has ever published
images that have been degraded by UV's

I've got the 2x version and the Jessop 1.7x and I'm not
impressed by the very slow focusing. The Pentax 1.7x AF
Adapter is much better and also sharper.

I don't think it would have to be gold plated for that to happen

Lenstip did some tests on UV filters. B+W came third.
Hoya came first and they may be a bit cheaper.
If you look closely at the balcony shots there
was generally a small improvement.
