Hi Alessandro, I do not use a filter of any kind. Tried one when I had the lens first and it ruined the IQ so I took it off. I have since tried a Hoya Digital Pro filter and that also degrades the image quality.
I always shoot with the lens hood in position as that gives some good protection to the glass.
