Hi all,

 

I've not been able to find a definitive answer despite a search..

 

Can the hood be used on this lens when a filter is mounted? I've read some reports that the hood will not attach with some filters.

 

Is there a specific filter brand or size that will allow the hood to be mounted?

 

Appreciate any help,

Cheers,

Stuart

Stuart as noted by others, most filters can be mounted and the hood clips over it onto the lens itself. It needs to be not a larger diameter but that should not be a problem. The Leica UV/IR filters are deeper than many standard filters (for example the excellent B+W range) but it definitely fits inside the hood (I've used it). A polariser would not fit, but that is a different situation and you would need to have no hood mounted to allow you to operate the polariser anyway.
