it's a minefield of advice out there...
i read the UV tests ............"here"
and the CP-L tests..."here"
I decided on a 72mm Marumi DHG CP-L for my 17-70mm Sigma f2.8
well pleased with Quality, and so bought a Marumi "Protector" as well, as the front glass is exposed
others use Hoya HD - excellent quality [I have a 52mm HD Protector] but couldn't afford a 72mm one..!
on the other hand, others use Hoya Pro-1 D UV
......all down to budget ..?.............good luck .....

be careful buying VERY expensive UV filters on eBay --- there are so MANY fakes....
having said that - just got a used 52mm Tiffin UV Haze-1 off emilyarts for........£3..
after reading the Atkins post above.
ffordes [very reliable] do a range of used Hoya Pro-1 Digital
