suspritzed diamagnetic synchronizing filter

Okay, so we know that a suspritzed diamagnetic synchronizing filter doesn't REALLY exist, but I've also heard that you really SHOULD use a filter, and that there are lots (Gobs I think) different types of filters... So....
  1. Has someone already taken the time to explain different filters? If so, could I have the link?
  2. If not, would any of our more "salty" photo-masters mind taking a minute and tapping out what filters a beginner (like me) should start with, and what filters one may grow into?
Thanks everyone...

    You should surely try the "pillar" filter:) Jojames1 can explain this one in detail....

    It's very difficult to explain the pillar filter. Maybe TravLin could show us some examples of before/after using Pillar.

    You may not need this after lilbit's link but here is a reference by B&H Photo... http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=catalog.jsp&A=getpage&Q=Product_Resources/filters.jsp And while I'm at it a link to B&H's Manufacturer's links... http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=getpage.jsp&A=getpage&Q=main_links.jsp For myself, circular polarizer and graduated neutral density filters are the ones I use most since I went digital. The circular polarizer is the one I could not do without, naturally, it's the most expensive. I don't normally keep a uv, haze or skylight filter on to protect the lens anymore, though they do have other uses.
