Greetings, Didier!

Filters?  We don't need no stinkin' filters.  Actually, a quick wipe
with a lint-free patch of soft cotton fabric and the front element was
good as new.  However, had it been blowing sand instead of snow, rest
assured I would have put on a filter.  The 75 Summilux gathers enough
light to melt snow, no shoveling needed...now if I only had a
Noctilux...

Only a real afficionado takes his 75 Summilux out into a blizzard - hope

you did not forget the Leica E60 antiblizzard filter...

NOW I know why you like this lens so much - it's your secret snow
shovel!
