Q: 5. What factors are considerations in deciding between Canon 72mm UV Protector Lens ($34) verses Canon 72mm Circular Polarizing Lens ($159) for the lens I just purchased from you, Canon EF 85 mm f/1.2L USM (order no. 502379850). Thank you in advance.

A: A UV filter is basically a clear protection filter that works well for protecting your lens from scratches and smudges. A polarizing filter is helpful when shooting on bright sunny days as it reduces reflection and glare, and it also saturates the sky and gives your photos a nice rich and dark blue color.

Q: 6. i have this filter, and noticed green lens flare on Nikon 70-200mm, but no flare on 16mm-35mm. Anyone has the same issue with zoom lens? I'm thinking buying 2nd one for my 70-200mm, and wondering if I have a bad one.

A: If the filter and lens has been properly cleaned before use and you're not using a stepup adapter ring you should not see any flare or unusual color. If your issue persists, suggest you exchange for a B&W filter.
