None for me please, except for black and white. And then only
sparingly. Extra glass surfaces don't do much for pictures.
When I absolutely must use a filter, I stick to very high
quality, multicoated filters, like Pentax, B+W, Heliopan, Zeiss,
and Nikon. Never more than one filter at a time and then I have
to use the best hood I can find to shade it. I buy the best
lenses I can afford and see no reason to degrade their
performance further by using trashy filters.
