charles_stobbs2 Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 Do digital cameras benefit from UV(skylight) filters in the samesituations that a film camera would? I don't know what part of thevisible and invisible light spectrum a digital sensor is sensitive toas compared to film. Thanks for any info.

vassil_mihov Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 I don't mean to hijack the question, but instead add a related question: if you shoot in raw, without any filter, can you achieve the same effect in Photoshop as if you had a filter on? Not just UV, but other filters as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_simons Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 I heard someone say that most digital cameras have a built in UV filter in front of the sensor or something, I'm not too sure on this but you could check in on it and such.
