The Colored filters are for film shooters so ignore those and get the clear ones.
Most of the time the glass is the same between the version but the coating is different. Coatings aren't there only to repel moist and such it also makes the light easier to get through the filter and works against flair.
Also make sure it's a slim filter for the 16-45.
Don't know if Hoya have slim filters since I can't find any...

That one should come with a hood!

The problem is that you need some knowledge about web building.

Some think manual mode is easy and therefore a lot of flashes are good for them but some find full auto mode (P-TTL) easy and those flashes are more expensive.
YN-462 is a manual flash and very basic.
Most these days went for a Metz 48, a modern flash with all the tricks but still reasonably priced.

Vic, what you see is the blue clothing reflecting in the window, see the first shot that also have the same reflection.

Mowog, have you seen it happen then with the KX?
It's also plastic so the colour is probably baked in instead of painted but the glossy finish might get indeed dull over time.

So it's between the T*85 and the FA77 now, the DA70 is also a good lens but not fast enough.
Like said there is nothing in between the lenses so time to test them out in the shop.... now only need to find one that stock them both

That's the DA L version, optics are the same but it does not have a hood, Quick-Shift and a metal lens mount.
