thanks for the info

but for knowledge sake....what is the difference bw a polarizing and a clear uv? polarizing for intense sunlight?
UV - does pretty much nothing except to protect the lens. the sensor has a UV low-pass filter anyway to filter out UV rays.

Polarizer - reduces glare on shiny items like fruit, glass, water, etc.
