Does this actually improve the image quality in any way? (colors etc.) or is a filter simply for protecting the front end of your glass?

Sirrith Cream of the Crop More info | Apr 24, 2012 06:56 | #2 Depends on what type of filter you're talking about. There's plenty of info out there on the different types of filters. CPL, UV, GND and ND are the most common. There's even a sticky at the top of this page entitled "THE FILTER FAQ". Give it a read. -Tom

CPL, ND, ETC. there is a bunch of threads on filters and whether certain ones (uv) do anything or not....cpl (circular polarizer) makes a big difference, as does ND ( Neutral density).
