cant help you out, but tell me:  do video people keep a 'protective' uv or skylight filter on their lens the way many photographers do?

[incustody]

no

[MFS]

Yeah its not needed, its easier to control the exposure on dv cam than with a digital SLR or film camera

[sebastian toombs]

ah ha.   but most people put those filters on strictly for protective purposes: so that you only ever have to clean the filter rather than the lens surface, and so that one day the $15 filter might 'take a bullet' for the $1000 lens...

But that just changes the quality of you $1000 lens to that of the $15 ones.

 that is an argument some people make but i dont agree.  a skylight or UV filter with a very 'light' touch should barely affect colours, and would have no affect on contrast, edge sharpness, bokeh, etc.

the effect is hardly noticable with pictures(my 35mm at least) but it really does make a big difference when you are using high-end 3CCD video cameras.

You should be able to tell more of a difference on a 35mm then any 3ccd camera a skateboarder would use.
