Filters.

Sony_SoFar · 4 Jun 2011

Need to get one for my a200 kit lens. On the Jessops website they have their own brand at £17 and a Hoya one is £27. Will there be a huge difference in picture quality, or will the Jessops own do just for a happy snapper like me?

I would stay away from eBay, don't think the filter is of great quality. Check Amazon, it can be cheaper then Jessops.

Assuming that you want UV filter - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hoya-Pro-1-...1MHW/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1307190663&sr=8-4

Looks like, but it might as well be fake. In any case I would look for multi coated filter (HMC or DMC for Hoya filters).

Look on amazon for hoya pro or hoya HD. Make sure you get it from amazon and not a trader.

Second getting Hoya HD. It's so good and almost self cleaning!
