Avoid Hoya at all costs. nonsense. hoya makes excellent filters (assuming they're not fakes). the only thing to avoid is the cheap uncoated hoya filters. hoya hmc and particularly shmc filters are very good. b+w is another good choice too.

One thing I did notice was the lack of Hoya filters in the decent camera shops Stanley Street and Nathan Rd. Ended up with Fuji UV filters 77mm at $22 each.
