The Phoblographer Answers: Why Do SLR Film Cameras Need Filters?

Yes, I know; if you're an experienced photographer then this sounds pretty crazy. But this question was typed into our search bar a number of times and so I decided that I'd take a stab at answering exactly what's going on here.

The question comes from the idea that digital cameras don't need UV or other filters but instead only film cameras do. It's something that's easily misunderstood by many people who are just starting out. In fact, digital cameras do indeed sometimes need filters but by and large they are much more necessary with various film cameras. .
