I'm the other side of that. Why buy a $2000 lens and then put a cheap piece of glass in front of it?
Who said cheap glass? UV filters come with pristine multicoated optical glass too. It just doesn't cost $2000 because it's one element and flat thus far easier to form.
As for the question. Especially on Pro glass I put UV filters. However I'm sure most of you have seen the comparison I posed, there's glass and then there's glass!. I am definitely never using a cheap UV filter again. And the filters only come off the pro glass to be cleaned, or when shooting into a light where ghosting can be an issue.
