Hoya's latest filters (2015) called 'Fusion' incorporate a special layer on top of their usual super-multi-coating to repel stains and make cleaning easier. It causes water to bead on the outer surface, and crucially greasy marks just wipe off. A great improvement over previous, rather unforgiving, multi-coatings. I've tried it and it works. Unlike 35mm film cameras, simple UV filters cutting out ultra-violet haze are not needed on modern sensor DSLRs, so do we really need them in the digital age? In the great debate, purists will correctly argue that any extra layer of glass will only degrade image quality, but out here in the real world filters are still essential protection from dust, sand, grit, salt, rain and greasy fingers. There is a greater difference in perceived technical quality between different f-stops or zoom settings on a decent lens than there is with a good multi-coated filter. The short answer is, I would rather have a scratch, chip, scrape, or other serious damage happen to a disposable filter than to an expensive front lens element.Read full review

Very good product. Used extensively on holiday with great results. Just make sure that you take off any other filters as vignetting occurs on corners
