Hmc Super Multi

Pls detail the difference 'tween a HOYA Super HMC Pro 1 Multi-coated 58mm filter and a Tiffen 58mm UV filter?
two filters:
HOYA Super HMC Pro 1 Multi-coated 58mm UV (0) filter
Tiffen 58mm UV filter
I bought both, I have a XSi with both the kit lens and a F 50mm f/1.4 and was looking for some filters. I was able to pick up the Tiffen at a third of the cost ofnthe Hoya (i bought both). Functionality wise, in respect to protection and IQ, is there that much of a difference? (justified by $$). I'm not sure if the Tiffen has multi-coating and to what extent thats important. Thnx in advance, just looking for a "Readers Digest Condensed version" of the difference between the two filters. Both are recognizable brand names, I know. Thnx
The HMC will have better light transmission and less surface reflections. Internal reflections can cause flare and/or loss of contrast if bright light is hitting your lens.

The coatings on Hoya HMC filters are somewhat fragile which means clean with care. I find that a microfiber cloth for eye glasses works well. Just be sure the cloth is clean and free from dust and dirt.
