Don't use a ND filter. Pick up a UV filter instead or just a coated clear filter.

What's the difference?
Generally you use a neutral density filter if there is too much light, or you want to use a large lens opening to narrow the deph of field. UV and skylight filters have been used for decades as a lens protector. They supposedly help reduce haze that is in a scene.

The camera accepts 30 mm filters, which are not that easy to fine (at least for me.)
My primary purpose is to protect the lens behind the "iris like" "lens" cap.
But, a UV filter would do that task just as nice, and provide the added benefit that UV filters provide.
