Please help me all of you who know; Can I use the same polarizing filter for my Sigma 10-20 and 24-70? (both 82mm <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' /> )
Second question; Please recommend a brand/type for me. I want first class quality, but not to pay for a brand name, if it is not necessary.
Thanks in advance and merry Xmas!

Hi Wolf,
I was using a slim circular B+W on the Tokina 11-16mm. The quality of the glass was superb and the screw thread was as easy as it can be. But as you know, using a polarizer on UW lens does not help with the dark blue skies as expected. A slim 82mm B+W polarizer can be quite expensive, but still, if the dark blue skies are not the only aim for you, pay more and buy a slim one and use it on both lenses. That way, you won't have concerns for the 24-70mm, if you switch to FF in future.
Regards, and Merry Christmas
