what is difference between hoya 52mm and 72 mm everything else being the same for a panasonic lumix mirrorless camera 14-42 lens

52mm is for a lens that accepts 52 mm filter and 72 is for a lens that accepts 72 mm filter. check your lens to see the size you need.

The number in MM represents the diameter of the filter - the size of it. Make sure you get the right size or else it will not fit on your cameras lens. You can find the filter mount diameter on the lens itself.

Hello Joyce, The "mm" measurement refers to the size lens the filter is meant to fit. Most lenses should have this measurement written on them, and it refers to the diameter of the end of the lens where the filter screws on, not the "35mm equivalent" of the zoom, so it is important that you get the right size for your lens and there is only one correct size. This specification should be listed under the specs for the lens as well, and is specific to that particular lens..other lenses will have different diameters...Hope that helps!

I am just an amateur but I will try to answer your question with my limited knowledge. The only difference between the two is that they fit on difference size lens. If you are referring to the darkness of the filter, there are different types of neutral density filters. The lighter ones help reduce glare and (may) slow motion depending on your choice. The darker ones will slow motion more, such as blurring water from a waterfall and are (generally) more expensive. The lighter ones let in more light and the darker ones will slow down your exposure (up to) 9 or 10 stops. I hope someone will more knowledge than myself will explain it more to you but I hope this helps a little. I am just an amateur but I will try to answer your question with my limited knowledge.

I have Lumix DH3 ; I am using with it 14-45mm lens much more often than 45-200mm. I agree with others that 14-45 is a great lens, sharper than newer 14-42.

Both lenses perform well, so I will offer up an opinion based upon the focal length that will best accommodate your request: The wide effect of these lenses is highly marginalized by your 50D's cropped sensor. Both focal lengths offer similar results for full-bodied portraits. If you like to frame your subject off centered, or get really close and crop your subject within the frame, the 28mm is noticably less distorted-which you will likely find more flattering to the face. Despite having similar focal lengths, if you spend a day with both lenses you will develop an immediate preference. I prefer the 24mm as an all-around lens (particularly for landscapes with towering features or street photography). However, I would opt for a 28mm or 35mm if I were primarily photographing people.

Olympus and Panasonic jointly developed the micro 4/3 standard and in theory lenses should be interchangeable. But I looked up about the 3D lens in particular and found this response. I cannot say for sure as I have only the Lumix camera. http://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/2931382You can notify me for further info. James Hong osirisbear@hotmail.com

The kit 14-42 is the version 2 and therefore on a par with the well regarded 14-45. The photos should be very sharp and clear. Of course, the lens is only part of the story. It is necessary to learn to use the camera body to get the best results.

Look inside one of your lens caps. It will say "52" or whatever the thread size is.

I own this camera, it accepts 52mm filters. I have a HOYA 52mm UV[0] on mine right now. Depending on what type of filters you get, you may need a new lens cap than the one that is supplied (I did)

It's not a matter of what camera you're using. The thing to consider is the filter diameter (52 mm, 62 mm, 72 mm, etc) of the lenses of the camera you're currently using.

I bought it to replace the 14-42 that was damaged. 17mm is included in the range of the original lens. It also is f2.8 over the f3.5.GeneK

This close-up lenses screws on the thread of your current lens, so it really depends on what lens you are using with your camera. For example, my Zuiko wide angle 9-18 mm has a 52 mm thread, but my regular 14-42 mm lens has a 37 mm thread. You can check the current lens that comes with your camera and see what it says about the thread.

I have all 3 lumix 14-42 lenses, the only diferance I can see is the size. Eric.

if you look at the front of your lens, around the outside ring of it, it will say the size - so it might say 52mm or 48mm, etc. - it depends on the lens

It's about the same this lens is what the earlier models came with I think I have the 16-50 lens too this one is just all manual and it feel there's more attachments for it like wide angle and fish eye instead of buying a whole new lens for both of those options.

The filter size is 72mm. Either a Daylight or a UV filter will protect your lens without affecting your photos.

I can definitely recommend the Lensmate converter. Like the previous poster mentioned, if you have 58mm filters, go with 58mm. Otherwise, the 52mm converter fits like it was part of the camera in the first place. There really isn't a difference between 52mm and 58mm when it comes to filters available.

35mm is the size of the film that the camera takes. 50mm is how wide the lens is.
