can you put any filters on top of this lens?

NO!!!!!!!!! There is no space and, if you did make something up yourself, the lens would see it at the edge of the frame.

I don't think so. You have to have threads on the end of the lens where you would screw on filters.

You can put a filter on it or you can use the self opening and closing lens cap. You cannot use both at the same time.

You can get a filter, but the depth of the lens hood obviates the need for it. I just got back from Australia shooting with the lens in all weather and conditions and did not use a filter. Better images that way as well.Regards,Evan

Check your lens manual for filter size. Doesn't that lens come with a lens hood?

At first, I had a problem with the lens coming off when I removed the lens cap. Now I have no problem. Yes the lens cap can be attached with the filter.

You can mount this filters set only on a 49 mm diameter lens. For example on a Sony SEL SEL1855 18-55 mm lens.

This lens is awesome to use, it came with a hood, caps for both ends and a case (which I think is too tight), but no filters.

Yes, but you need to turn the camera on to extend the lens in order to properly fit a UV filter on it. The camera lens cap will fit over the UV filter but will stick out a little; it's secure, though.

As long as the filter thread on those lenses is 52mm, yes you can. You just need to check what the thread size is for the lens.

The filters do not have threads to accept anything in front. The mount is 53mm so if your macro lens is 53mm then you might be able to attach to the threaded mounting base.

You can't put a filter or a lens hood onto the lens. It has no threads & it retracts when turned off. The camera has some digital 'filters' built in, but that doesn't protect your lens like a real UV filter for instance that you would leave on.

Sorry I misread your question. The HOOD does not accept filters. I thought you were asking about the lens. The hood itself does not accept filters. It's a lightweight plastic thing.

Michael, I do not believe your camera is capable of accepting screw on filters. You should be able to tell when you look at the front of the lens if there are threads or not. It's possible that some company makes a bayonet or push on-type filter, however, I am not aware of any. Hope this helps.

I think you're supposed to be able to add filter and macro lenses to it (thin little "add on" lenses to get extreme close ups, cut glare,.. that kind of thing). The lens it comes with does not come off - as far as I can tell.

Dear Patricia, you will not be able to fit any screw-in filters to this lens. This is because the front element is curved and it is protected by the built-in petal-shaped hood. Although this hood appears to have a screw thread it is actually just a series of circles (presumably to disperse any stray light that hits it). The only thing you can do to protect it is to always use the the push-on lens cap supplied when the lens is not being used. Best wishes, Simon (yatescameras.com)

I don't have a filter adapter/filter but I can tell you that there is about 1/4" to 3/8" more room under the lens bubble than is needed for the stock arrangement. So long as your accessory doesn't add more than that amount to the lens length you should be Ok.
