    I use B+W filters I buy the large 77mm ones, and use step up rings, that was I use one size filter arcoss different size lens. I would not worry about the lettering on them, but would suggest that you get the extra slim that is what the XS means. That is so you can use it on a ultra wide angle len. As for the lens cap if you buy the 77mm filter then you would need a 77mm len cap, it you bought one to fit only one len than the cap for that len will fit not problem.
