Filter size for Fuji Finepix S1000FD Any idea what size UV filter fits on a Fuji S1000FD camera, or will it take one at all to protect the lens?

If you want to be able to screw in a filter or even magnification lens (close-up) you will probably have to find an older S5000, S5100 series. I have used these for years with great sucess. I guess Fuji didn't think anyone would get serious with their line of cameras.

it comes with a case and a hood. don't know what you mean by filter most filters are not necessary with digital cameras. if you mean a UV for protection a lot of people we don't like to use them they feel extra glass is detrimental to a sharp picture. UV doesn't help.

I considered this camera until I couldn't find a uv filter for it. It is really small. Less than 46 mm. There may be one somewhere, but I couldn't find it. Love that 18x lens tho...

I purchased the polorizer on AMAZON. Here is the info Opteka 58mm High Definition² Multi-Coated Circular Polarizing Glass Filter Sold by: 47th Street Photo As for the UV filter I just used one that I had on another Canon camera . As long as its 58mm it will fit. Don' t forget too you will need to get a pinch style lens cap with a long cord on it. This way you never lose the cord. Hope this info helps.

Yes. The filter size is 37mm. I am using a TIFFEN 37mm UV Protector Filter to protect and prevent dust from going into the lense. I bought the filter from Amazon.

In my limited experience, I would say no. the largest filters I have seen are 77mm. This lens has a a drop-in 52mm "behind the lens" mechanism, should you require the use of filters. I can say that w/o the uv protector, this lens doesn't collect any more dust than my lenses that have protection. Perhaps its the long hood, i'm not sure, but happy anyway.

Any 58mm filter should fit the S5 IS. I have the Canon 58mm UV Haze filter on my camera full time. Like all Canon Power Shot cameras, you need the lens adapter before you can add any accessory to the lens. The S5 uses the Canon LA-DC58E Conversion Lens Adapter. I have other 58mm filters that I just add in front of the UV filter when I want to use them.

I too own a Coolpix 520 and had lots of problems like you are - its a 58mm. Bought a uv filter and went through several before found the right size.

May I ask where you purchased the polarizer and UV filter for the SX1? My husband would also like to use these. Did you also purchase your adapter from the same place?

Some models come with a UV filter and some don't. As I ready had a stand alone UV unit, I bought the cheaper unit w/o UV filter. I would hope that the product specifications, based on the size of the unit, would include that information. Sorry, but that is the best I can do.

Multi-coated UV or skylight 1A 58mm filter to protect your the front of your lens. After that, let your conscience (and wallet) be your guide. I also like to add a collapsible lens hood (again, 58mm) to the lens and filter to give a little shade from sun/light flare and as a "bby buggy bumper to also help protect the lens from light impact. You will probably have to collapse it when going for wide angle shots (towards the 18mm end of your zoomlens) so thatit doesn't show in your photo.

I bought it for my Canon SX40 and it works perfectly, but I'm not sure if the SX50 lens diameter is larger. This set does come with an adapter ring that fit snugly on my Canon SX40 which allows placement of the filters and you can also stack the filters and/or add the lens hood. I mainly just use the lens hood without filters as UV filters are a bit controversial on their protection vs image quality loss on poor glass. So sometimes I'll remove the UV and just use the Hood for bright days and it works nicely, but make sure you zoom out just a tad with this hood on or you get vignetting or see the edges of the hood in the corners of the photo unless you zoom out just a tad I bought it for my Canon SX40 and it works perfectly, but I'm not sure if the SX50 lens diameter is larger.

It does not accept filters as you guessed. I stopped using protective UV filters years ago and have had no issues at all. I have used this lens in extremely harsh environments (I.e. burning Man) and have had zero issues with it. Lenses are pretty resilient.

HiI have to check to see where I purchased the polarizer and UV filter. I believe it is AMAZON but I will check and get bak to you. As for the adaptor (I have the SX10) but it fits the SXI I purchased that at LENSMATE.com. They also sell polorizers and other accessories for this fab camera. I just took a lot of shots of autumn trees and foliage using the polarizer and they came out great. Will let you know which polorizer and UV I got.

These lenses (filters) screw directly on the thread on the front element of the camera lens. The thread is very fine and not easy to see at a casual glance. When on the lens they do not obstruct the zoom operation or the lens cap which protects the lens when the camera is not in operation. Fitting the UV filter permanently is a good idea since it protects the front element of the lens from scratches and dust. Hope this helps. Peter

Robert, no. For that lens you need the 58mm thread. Unfortunately Fuji has not standardized there filter threads, so it can be a pain getting different sized filters, but that is the case for now. You will love this filter. They make very good glass.

OK, i have the answer! the guys over that the forum linked me to canon's Asian's site where i was able to downloaded an english version of canon's manual that says the adapter (canon #FA-DC67A) is definitely required to attached 67mm filters.here's that link: http://support-asia.canon-asia.com/contents/ASIA/EN/0300419501.html (then see page 41)so, unless you're willing to buy the adapter, there is no apparent way to mount a UV filter, regardless of size.thnx Les for helping answer this question.
