I would save up the money and buy a decent one, e.g. B+W Kaesemann which is what I use.

I believe that a double threaded polariser is not require as I never use any other filter with the polariser and if I did the polariser would be the last one put on.

For land or sea scape's a polariser is essential piece of kit, but not always, it really enhances the colour and definition. A lot of my land and sea scape's use a polariser.

I have been doing a lot of research on filters and I am now convinced not to throw away money on cheap filters. I have found and looked at comparison pictures and now realize that the UV filter I purchased will have to bite the dust and be replaced also. It just stands to reason that no matter how great a lens you have on your camera that if something of lesser quality is in front of it, the picture WILL BE DEGRADED. After reading several sources the B&W seems to be the one to get. Now I need to find the best price and start saving.

I am still open to any comments or suggestions, but I am leaning toward the B&W filters, As usual asking for help BEFORE purchasing will save money in the long run. Thanks, Jeff
