if you'll be near dirt/dust/sand/spray, etc. I'd use it. I have one on all my lenses because I'd prefer cleaning dirt off an easily replaceable filter instead of a lens.
BTW, the B&W filters are *much* easier to clean than Hoya ones...the Hoya ones also show dust faster... (top end filters...MRC and Pro1 respectively)...
