Today the unthinkable happened. While transporting my Canon 70-200mmf2.8L inside my nicely padded Tamrac backpack, the backpack slipped from my fingers and hit the ground. From what I can tell, the lenscap pushed into the filter and shattered the filter. I don't kniw if the front element is damaged as I can't remove the filter. Looks like the impact jammed it really tight into the threaded area.
How do I remove this filter without slashing my hand with shards of broken glass? I have seen some filter removing tools on Amazon, but they look like flimsy plastic contraptions that won't work.
