Nope, no filters at all; but then I'm not doing landscape photography.  I
want speed and the best glass available.  Filters cut down both.  In
addition, it simplifies life: two less surfaces to clean, less to carry,
store and fiddle with.  If I decide I want to adjust the contrast or
something, I can always do that in the darkroom or with PhotoShop - now the
smiley  :-)

Leically,
