Why a UV filter on the Shorty Forty?

It's B&W 007 Clear MRC:  http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/475488-REG/B_W_66_1001698_52mm_007_Protection_Clear.html

 I know its B&W, but why? The 40mm is cheap. Its like me buying a B&W filter for a 50mm 1.8.

I bought 40shorty for $95 from Crutchfield, with some reward points. The filter cost me almost $40. I doesn't make sense for someone else, but for me is worth it. I like to keep my toys in shiny condition

Off Topic: Even though the value of my 1992 Acura NSX is only 1/5 of what Im driving now, but I still have the cover on it and wash it every two weeks or so. This is my 1st sport car. I might put $30K just to have this car rebuilt from head to toes, that includes: 500horsepower eng directly from Japan, custom chassis, wheels, seats, stereo etc....It doesn't make sense for others. It's perfect for me.

Very nice bit of kit.. Enjoy

Thanks Alex....I'll take a day off from work tomorrow to test drive this "little monster". I'll post some pictures. Stay tune

My wife took the kids to Chuck E. Cheese over the weekend with my RX1. Since then, I haven't seen my RX1 back yet

Here are some pictures that she took. Also, others were taken by her friend(s) with my RX1: http://albums.phanfare.com/isolated/fPRlYszx/1/5948895
