scott_k. Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 Skylight better for higher altitudes, tends to render a _slightly_ warmer image, cuts through haze more effectively. Search the archives!!! Just buy one and be happy with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott_k. Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 Oops... Pick one and be happy with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aardvarko Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 What? Unless I'm horribly mistaken (which is a possibility :-) ), skylight filters are just tinged pink to compensate for using standard outdoors film on a cloudy day; it counteracts the blueness of the overcast light. It doesn't cut through haze; UV filters do, by contrast, and aren't pink, to boot. "UV Haze" filters are just like UV filters, but more - they're yet more effective at reducing atmospheric haze.

scott_k. Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 It has always seemed to me that by using a skylight filter I reduce the haze a little more than i do with a UV flter. I guess this is due to the bluish cast that haze tends to take on. But that might just be a perceptual thing due to the warming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott_k. Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 P.S. you are correct about the varying degrees of UV filtration in different grades of UV filters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aardvarko Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 That said, Scott's right - they're both perfectly good filters for protecting your lens.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roger c Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 Skylights are pink, so I use UV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_barnett2 Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 You don't 'need' a UV or skylight filter kamol. Just go and shoot some film, then decide what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lee_shively Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 Skylight (1A) is a weaker version of the 81A. Designed to remove the blue tinge in color photos taken in open shade by--SKY LIGHT! These days they are generally used by color photographers as a protection filter. UV filters were designed to remove some ultraviolet light, in varying degrees. These days they are generally used by color and black and white photographers as a protection filter. Kamol, it's not really that important. Photography is not and never was an exact science or a rigid artform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al_kaplan1 Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 The skylight filter ALSO removes UV light. It not only makes things pinter, or less blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aardvarko Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 Thanks for correcting a misconception, Al. You're quite right, as confirmed by a number of filter manufacturers' sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
