B + W 77mm UV Slim Mount...
Is it worth it to get the slim mount or stick with the standard?

Can you even put a lens cap on the slim mount?

Are these the same as the 'f-pro standard' I've heard about?

I'd get the standard. I use B + W filters exclusively, and my 77mm L lens instructions say that two filters can be stacked. So I use a regular UV filter on all lenses, and have purchased a slim Polariser to stack on top of the normal UV filters. No problems, so far.............:D

I definitely notice slight Vignetterisingation on my 17-40L if using non slim UV plus CP

But at least I can put the lens cap on!;)

So anyone can answer yet whether you can use the canon lens cap with B+W 77 slim CP+slim UV???

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the 17-40 has a bajonet style hood, that fits around the lens, not to the thread, right? Why wouldn't it fit?
