From old habit I have a skylight filter on the DA 16-45. None, of course, on the DA 10-17.

I don't use lens hoods. Too bulky in the bag.

But these have been my habits for many years, and this problem has only cropped up with the K-5IIs. So filter and lens hood are not the problem.

Interestingly, I *always* use a lens hood and *never* use a filter, other than the occasional (rare) polarizer. That's an old habit that works for me.
