Is it possible to attach a lens adapter ring on the front and still keep it in the case?? obviously not adding the filter itself.

Haven't tried so not sure - sorry I can't be of more help. B & H Photo in NYC might know - very knowledgable sales people.

The camera has a retractable lens that is nearly flush with the case when closed so I suspect not unless the adapter is thin.

There is around 1/8 - 1/4 inch of space between end of lense and inside of lense cover it appears to me. Since I do not have a lense adapter ring or filter (yet) I can't say for sure if it would fit. You can always return the case if it doesn't work. ? for you - how does the lens adapter ring and filter attachment work for you on this camera? What ring do you use? Thanks.

K,I did not buy the adapter ring but the leather case fits very snuggly so I would assume that the case would not fit with the adapter ring. Remember you can always return the item for a credit. Sorry I wasn't more helpful. I do like my case.

Well, it depends on the length of the filter, apparently there's a cover for lens so it might not allow to much space in the lens..

Im confused...so will the adapter ring allow me to attach actual camera lenses, for example, a fisheye or a 52 mm lens etc etc???

The adapter ring has to come off of the camera in order to install any filters. It is there to protect the threads. I'm not sure, but I don't think you need to remove it to use just a lens hood.

Yes, it does. I keep it with the filter adapter ring and the snap on lens cap permanently mounted on and there is room for a filter.

The lens adaptor ring does not have any other elements within its geometry. You must screw a filter into the holder.

when I got this lens there was only one way, with the c-mount adapter. it looks like there is now the e-mount option, they probably just permanently attached the adapter to the lens. either should be fine

From my experience, the lens barrel has to be flat and not recessed in order to provide a mounting surface for the filter's self-adhesive metal ring. Probably not a good choice for your camera.

It is a fisheye lens with a 180 degree view so standard filters do not fit. (My lens cap is now loose and keeps falling off so just be aware that this may also happen to you. I took the lens hood to the local camera shop and they inserted fresh tape on the inside of the hood to grip the lens).

Thank you so much for the information. I bought some 58mm filters and an adapter and have held them in front. I will look for some 37mm so I can do your workaround. Thank you for the information.

Yes, the lens/filter ring is the adapter. I called it the wrong thing. As I said in my review, it fit, but with a little force and I would get a prompt that said "lens error" the camera would shut off and wouldn't turn on again. I was afraid I might break the lens.

Dawn, my case had a recess that allowed the ring to be placed as close as possible to the lens. Even at that I had problems with lens flare which washed out about half the image, so I'm not sure it'll behave differently on your case. Hope this helps. Ron

There is a ring mount (sizes vary per lens) that screws onto your lens. The filter holder then snaps onto the ring. They are fairly cheap but sold separately.

Yes, it can be tricky to remove. Unlike top-quality filters which are well machined metal, the adapter is plastic and flexes when gripped. The trick is to not grab it on both sides as you normally would but to grip the edge of the ring between your thumb and forefinger and very gently rotate it. You might have to grip it in two locations using both hands but what you are trying to do is grip it in a way that doesn't squeeze the ring causing it to expand and bind on the lens threads. If you have one of those rubber sheets used to open jars, you might be able to just place the sheet on a table and then place the lens filter-ring-down on the sheet and rotate it as an alternative method.

I don't think there are any filter threads, no threading to secure them on the lens itself.

Yes. The adapter slides onto the lens body with enough room (space) for the lens to contract into the stored position. The filter then flanges, or enlarges to accommodate the filters. We have been very happy with the product.

Hi openmyeyes!You mean you attached your filters directly to the camera lens, without the Lensmate adapter?Which filter size you used?Thanks!Diems
