Are these mostly for film cameras and not digital, if I'm using mostly for protection, would not the cheaper Tiffens suffice, whats the difference?

In general a color conversion (warm or cooling) filter is just that regardless of camera or lens it is placed in front of. I sometimes use it when taking shots of sunsets/sunrises with my D7000. If you want a lens strictly for protection then get the best quality crystal clear lens possible-no distortion or color shift at all. If you are relatively careful a protection lens will not be necessary. Remember you will need one for each size diameter lens you own unless you buy step up/down rings. Most actual lenses are recessed (not all) so scratching it rare.

Nope, conventional film type ONLY, NOT digital. It's still among the better 35mm cameras.

I don't think there is a difference. I'd recommend getting the yellow tinted ones however if you're going to be shooting outside. I've got em and they work great

I believe they use the same film since theres only like one type of film available (mini). As for the model numbers, the higher the number the more "advanced" the camera is. http://instax.com/products/camera/

I bought four of the same type. Not sure that it really matters much if you are setting the white balance of your camera before shooting. That should compensate for differences in light spectrum.

In days past Tiffen was a good quality middle of the road (cost) filter. They've cheaped them up to point I wouldn't own one. Hoya is a similar filter. The best filter's I've used over last 45 years are by B + W.

Will try to be brief this time, film is dead !! Digital is here, whether it be DSLR or NEX, you should get your value's worth in one of the Sony DSLR camera bodys............ if you have SLR lenses, I would go in that direction...............My guess in why nobody knows much about Sony, is that they have either Canons or Nikon cameras............ I doubt many old Minolta owners know of the Sony being acceptable to old Minolta lenses Good Luck !

Filters used for 'protection' usually cause more problems than they solve, like added lens flare and getting stuck on the lens. If the thin glass in a 'protection filter' breaks the sharp shards of broken filter glass often damage the front lens element they were intended to protect.So, IMO the best option is no filter.

You should absolutely protect you investment. Use a filter. The picture affect is so finite that you really cant tell if a picture was shot with a filter or not. In my case, better a cracked piece of glass from the filter vs. a cracked or scratched lens. Its even good to have on to protect from dust and debris.

I use these on all my digital cameras & did when my digital was new & 285 was very old. They tell you this to try to sell you an expensive flash to that camera ie canon to canon, Nikon to Nikon ... it's all BS use it don't worry it works very well & have had the same 2 cameras for over 3 years now & use them a lot.

I've not had a problem with blurring due to vibration when using my lens and besides because of the nature of the beast lenses with that short of a focal length don't really require a Vibration Reduction feature because they are used for indoor shots or landscapes when you would most likely be be using a support of some type.

DSLR photos are better due to the technology. Look at photos taken by others against a digital with plastic lens and you will see for yourself. You be the final judge.

Those you need to get from Canon and they are expensive. I just use one on my camera.JJ

Any 35mm film, color or black and white. The difference between the films is the ISO number. Usually the 400 film is a better choice overall. Most camera shops are willing to help you with your purchase. The Kodak TMAX is my first choice. Enjoy it!

I'm sorry that it appears like I gave you the wrong answer before. I was thinking of the Canon EOS T2 which is digital. The Rebel T2 is a 35mm film camera. It is a personal preference but my opinion is that film camera's are a thing of the past unless you have a specific purpose that you need it for.

Yes, I use them to protect some autographed 8x10 photos and have found them very useful. They have a slight tint which I believe is to reduce UV exposure, but I cannot confirm that. They are thick enough to be hardy but still manageable.

Yes, I'm certain they are. They are also "archival quality", which means it will not damage photos over time. In my opinion this is one of the best brands without spending hundreds of dollars.
