Should I buy keep the filter or buy a useful one for my collapsible summicron?

The filter currently on my cron came with a lens I bought a while ago. I don't like using uv filters, but I also want to keep the images as original as possible cuz adding colored filters would add more contrast. Thanks

Go for a proper lens hood - will work much better than an additional piece of glass on the uncoated lens.

Already have one~

If you already have the lens hood, and don't like filters, why are you asking us if you should keep the filter?

It's a pattern.

Get a filter for that lens for protection and UV light.

Well should I just kepp the one I have on it? Don't really like using uv filters but I'd rather put one on than risk getting the front element scratced

Get a B+W Protection filter. I've never liked UVs--they change the light.

No kidding.

He got booted from rangefinderforum.com because he non stop posted threads like this, over and over again, w/o paying any attention to what was being said. Then deleted the threads after some people genuinely put a lot of time into giving him thoughtful replies.

I see he has taken his trade here....

Every one of my lenses has a UV or Skylight filter for warming, haze reduction and protection.
