Can these accept UV filters over the lenses and if so what size? Also, anyone use a Pelican case for them, if so what size?

There are no threads to secure filters on the front. To protect the lenses I use (2) "Vortex Optics Flip Cap Optic Cover, Size 7". They fit great!

Any time I get a new lens I always buy a UV filter to put on the new lens and leave it to protect the lens glass. Let's face it new filters are a lot cheaper than a new lens. You don't always want to use CP filter but you still need to protect the lens.

Hi Amani~ I have an SX30, & they do go on the lens reluctantly for me, but my camera fell onto blacktop once & may have messed the threads up. I do like the uv filter in the kit.

I cannot answer this question. The filter fits SONY lenses and these are the only lenses I have. I would hope that all lenses have the same screw threads, but have no information on this.

The lens on the camera accepts 55mm filters. I have a vivitar 55mm uv-haze filter and a polarizing lens. I'm going to purchase a 1A filter to help protect the cameras lens from damage.

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.

I do not recommend filters unless it will optically improve an image. If the filter gets broken, it will scratch up and damage the glass on the front of the lens. Lens hoods can protect the front glass to a degree. That's what I use-hoods all the time.

Yes, but the UV filter screws between the adapter & the Lense. Hope this helps. Cheers

I think that you should open the store products and check a kit that have the things that you need because I guess that they can't be removed. The filters are excellent to protect your lenses.

Yes, those fit very well, but only the filters works well, the lenses quality are poor. I will not recommend it

There are filter adapters now on Ebay, just a simple 38mm to 52mm or 55 mm for about $14. I got one and attached a 52mm UV protective filter, and bought a replacement 52mm Nikon "real" lens cap. I also got a 52mm polarizer, so i'm all set for now. The threads won't hold any accessory lenses, but they are solid enough for a protective filter.Jason

You are right that lens filter size is 77mm. You need to do a search for UV 77mm filters or a Nikon NC 77mm filter.

It should work just fine with your lens. There is a bit of a color cast produced by the filters, depending on your editing skills, this is something somewhat easy to fix. I mostly use the graduated filters for sunset and notice a a purpleish tint in the sky that is otherwise not there. For sunsets, this is an acceptable fault for me. For ~$20 you cant go wrong, especially if you are buying these to determine if a higher end filter would be a good fit for your bag.

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.

Hi Keith, I do not use filters on my lenses. I do use the lens hoods. After 33 years as a professional photographer I find the filters a bit of a pain.

I'm sorry I don't understand your question. They are too large and I had to cut to size. Difficult to measure now.I use the bottom 1/3 of lense in my sunglasses.

a 52mm fits, but I was not happy with the ghosting I got with the UV filter I used. I am opting to not use a filter, as I really do not think this lens was designed to function with one.
