Congrats on the new lens. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

As for the filter, you can save yourself some money by buying a 72mm filter and a step up ring instead of 82mm filter.

I have the macro version of the same lens and currently use a 72mm linear polarizer. Due to the 1.6x crop factor of your DRebel, there is no vignetting. And since the front does not rotate when it focuses, the linear polarizer is fine. I'm sure a 81A or UV will be fine too.

Ah, good times :D

Have 2 flashes, 580ex and 420ex.

Was just messing around, first shots with the flashes since march!
Feels good to be back into biking photography :).
