Many thanks for your valued comments. Food for thought indeed!
I am going to postpone any filter purchases until I see the monochrome results I get "unfiltered".
By the way, I am not a novice in photography but am on a voyage of rediscovery. I processed all my own films fifty years ago, and printed them, too.
Thanks again. I value your comments.

I have just acquired a Minolta Hi-matic AF2 Point and Shoot camera, from a thrift store. The cost was a fortune, at $7.
I really like it. It's solid, easy to use, uses AA batteries and in summary, is charming.
It has a 46mm filter thread. I never use filters on my Pentax SLR but for the Minolta I thought a Y2 yellow filter might be useful, for use with black and white film.
I note your stated preference for a yellow-geen filter. Would Y2 also be a good first choice for a filter?
Would you advise me to buy a Step-Up filter adapter, to allow me to use 49mm filters on both the Pentax and the Minolta?
Thanks in advance for any guidance!
