Do you still use the internal reflection cone or just the lens covering?

Not sure I understand your question, but hopefully this answers it: This lens cover only fits into the existing light canister housing; you can't just use the lens covering.

I would use a computer screen cleaning cloth for the lens. But I have my camera about 5 months and it doesn't need cleaning yet because when I'm done using it, I put it back in it's case. Just be careful not to touch the lens.

The lenses have their own cover. I use filters on all my lens as additional protection as well as for effect.

I'm not an expert, but to my knowledge, lens protection is main purpose. No added value to photo using clear glass. Since it's an extra layer of glass, there will be very slight impact on light transmission, but I certainly don't have a finely calibrated eye to see it with my camera and photo's I shoot. If you already have UV filter on your lens, you don't need to add NC.

I do not use a filter on this lens. When I did there was too much reflection using a UV filter.

They are little rubber coated opposite pole magnets (attract each other) so when you move one the other follows. As far as scratching, if you clean your lens before use there won't be an issue. The reason you need two for the divided lenses is just that... divided. You can move one from one side to the other with the single lens.

If your using it just for indoors I would do clear. But if your gonna use it indoors and out I would do anti. But if u use the clear trying turning down the brightness. Cause I have kinda the same prob with wearing my contacts and I find it helps immensely.

I leave the adhesive metal ring attached, but have thus far had to remove my iPhone 5 from its protective case when using the lenses. I'm unlikely to drop it while using the lenses, but taking the case on and off is annoying. Good luck.

Alex, I leave mine on to because it helps protect the lens. It also helps me learn to make adjustments with light. This weekend I'm planning to test full sun photography with and without it. I'll let you know my results.

I would go with the clear film. Glare has not been a problem for me at all indoors with the clear protector sheet.

Just a novice, but I installed a 52mm screw-on UV filter on the front of the lens to protect it from scratches. This keeps dirt off the lens and allows me to clean only the filter with alcohol wipes without fear of damaging the lens. If the UV filter gets scratched, it is easily, and most importantly, inexpensively replaced. Check with a real camera store for cleaning materials for lenses. On-line searches for camera forums should also provide a wealth of information.

I did mine at least 4 months ago. I noticed the lenses started to have a haze/showing sign of yellow already. Understand, I live in Houston, Texas, where we got sunshine most of the time, including winter.

Like you, I have to wear sunglasses with my prescription in them. I have always had a problem looking at the LCD screens with my sunglasses on. What I do, is take my sunglasses off, and rely on the EVF. I am lost without it, especially with my vision. I think I get better photos that way.

You can or either and I only neede 1 because of the price I ordered 2 to have one in case the other broke. You can't tell the difference from the stock lenses, I was surprised by the good quality for the price. I took a flat head screw driver and pushed the little clip in as I pushed the lens it it went in easy.

Yes, it is better to take it out for the use you refer to, as it cuts light.Just have the normal UV - lens protecting filter on.

There's no optical reason for getting a lens hood anyhow. It seems impervious to flare. Unless you're worried about dropping the lens and scratching the front element, don't fret not having one.

No, but it's small enough that you don't need one. A little plastic cling wrap so you don't get wax on the lens or body works great.
