Does the CPL make the centre or parts of the image darker?

Which make of CPL are you using?

Ok some more research shows that wide lenses brings up weird effects with CPL/ ND filters

Not that kind of bashing, but minor knocks here and there

I promise to end my LBA with my latest addition, a Sigma 10-20 f3.5

Given my ability to knock/scratch lenses I need to put a filter on it. My question is can a CPL be left permanently on the lens as a protector? (most of the time anyway) or am I better off with a UV type filter.

they are bloody expensive 82mm filters

looking at the Flickr group pics from the 8-16, I feel dizzy.

I think I'll stick to my original decision on the 10-20

As a recent convert (see my username), I had the opportunity to give my K5 a real test last weekend and I must say I am really pleased with my K5 (no2) and DA*300 and DA 50-200 (I think I have a really good copy). Not really sure what to make of the DA18-55. Is it a poor copy or is it just a very average lens (?? below average kit lens compared to the competition). The strange thing is I have filters in my other two lenses and not on the 18-55.

Compared to rhe Q announcement, I think this is good for Pentax Cameras or whatever they decide to name it.

Hoya as someone above said, had no interest in the camera business and allowed QC to fall and recycle technology/body.

Exciting times ahead me thinks

does the same advice hold for a K5 and DA*300 ?
