Should I use a filter on the front to protect it, since I knock my lenses
around a little bit?



Yes, but the filter size is a bit tricky. However, I believe that the
windshield of a '84 Monte Carlo fits perfectly.




Actually, they use a gel filter on the camera-end of the lens. This does
a faboulous job at protecting the lens from things launched forward from
the mirror when it flips up. I use one frequently, since I drop things
into my camera a bit too often.
