I read in one of the forums that the Foveon Merrell sensor responds favorably to using a UV filter and can actually reduce the random splotches some are seeing. Anyone here actually verify this statement?
I have not used a UV filter on a digital camera since my old AGFA 1280. Always thought it was unnecessary at the least and to the worse actually decreased IQ. Now, every digital up till now have been Bayer sensors so I am curious if that posters statement has any validity with the Merrell sensor. I am sure I have a 49mm UV filter somewhere I can use if this helps IQ with a Merrell sensor.
