You will never make the sky and clouds punchy with a yellow, orange or red filter with this lens! I don't know if this helps but I had a PETRI lens shade Orikkor Lens f2.8 4.5 cm It fits perfectly...I am assuming that the 4.5 will not cut into the view area. I think this is safe assumption. And I have no idea how hard it would be to obtain this shade. I just had it for some reason....and I am a believer in using a shade where possible. Thanks Dave Stratton
