Just hold the filter up to your eye.

Filters for protection are at the user's discretion. Leica lenses have
UV-blocking cement in between the elements, so a UV filter is not necessary.

Filters for black and white photography, especially outdoors, can be
indispensible. Critical color work can also benefit.
