Which filters are absolutely necessary to have for the VX2100?	Can't Post

The guy i bought it from tried to upsell me on everything he had, so i said no to it all and figured i'd buy it all separately from someone not as sketchy. i know i need at least one to protect the lense, but what else do i need?

thanks

It depends on the effect you are trying to achieve.

I rarely use anything other than the Sky 1A to protect the lens and give some UV filtering.

Most popular are promist and star filters for effects. I also use an 812 warming filter to warm faces.
