I don't use filters to protect my $2400.00 lens, or my $1900.00 lens, or my ($1700.00, $1600.00, etc...) lens... but if you really feel an inexpensive UV filter that will reduce contrast, reduce image quality, etc... is really necessary to protect your $200.00 kit lens, fine!
The main reason I don't use a filter for protection, is it would make the image quality of my $2400.00 lens look like the IQ of that $200.00 kit lens! And using a filter on the $200.00 kit lens... will make images look like a $50.00 kit lens, made in some backroom somewhere!
But that isn't my problem! lol!
