I´d recomend them too and like to add that Heliopan has the same
quality, there coating is the best I know (sligthly better then Hoyas
best coating) and there frames are the best made ( Heliopan, brass, very
smoth in the thread).
And the cons?
B+W and Heliopan frames with front thread (there are special very thin
frames avaible) are thicker then the Olympus filter. They will do
vignetting with the 24mm/2,0 Zuiko and hood and surly with several other
wide angels too (not with the 72mm thread 18mm/3,5 Zuiko).
There are special wide angle filter which avoid this from B+W and
Heliopan. Heliopan produces too, an center gray filter to compensate the
vignetting and light fall off of super wide angle lenses.
