Yellow filter
Hi, Is it okay to use a yellow filter as a permanent lens protector for all outdoor and indoor shots. I am using 35mm Ilford XP2 film.
Thank you.

You can leave the yellow filter on for black and white, but it will limit your abilities. Sometimes you may not want the filter effects for a particular shot and other times you might want the stronger effects of an orange or red filter, or even the different effects of a green or polarizing filter. Also, a great many of these effects can be replicated in post processing. I would recommend a clear UV type filter for lens protection.

@Horoscope Fish posted this informative article a while back. It's a comparison between various UV filters. He found a Hoya UV filter that runs around $20 performs very well so those are the ones I've been getting. No issues with them either.

I guess I am confused now. Yellow filter helps with contrast, no?
