Hi all,
I am in the search for a polarizing filter, UV filter and 58mm-77mm step up ring, but there seems to be so much variation in price and i have no idea what to look for when buying these 3 items.
If it makes a difference, i currently have a 18-55mm canon lense (58mm in diameter) and intend on buying the 10-22mm canon wide angle lense in the future - which is why i'm buying the step up ring.
The 3 step up rings i've found are:

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/60508-REG/Tiffen_5877SUR_58_77_mm_Step_up_Ring.html
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/22018-REG/Heliopan_700145_58_77_mm_Step_up_Ring.html
As you can see, huge price differences...any help would be great.
In regards to the filters, BHphoto have recommended for the 10-22mm canon wide angle lense the:
Canon - 77mm Haze UV-1 Glass Filter ($34.95)
Canon - 77mm Circular Polarizer Glass Filter ($124.95)
I'm not too fussed with the UV filter but the polarizing filter i've seen for half the price. Does anyone have any good advice as to what i should get?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advanced.
Roger
