Lost my filter ring

   Hello, while I was uncapping the lens, the filter ring dropped and I couldn't find it. Now it is like this, https://www.ephotozine.com/articles/leica-q-hands-on-review-sample-photos-27644/images/highres-Leica-Q-4_1433939399.jpg

 

   The problem is that, it is not easy to cap the lens now. It is not stable while capped and once I found the cap was released in the bag.

 

   Could anyone please tell me where I can get a new filter ring from ? 

 

Thanks

I understand your problem.    Until you locate a replacement, fit your lens shade and the lens cap fits the shade.  I never take the shade off.  

Another thing to consider is that you might be tempted to fit a 49mm clear or UV filter, but unless it is very high quality you will be able to see the image degrade.  

A Leica dealer should be able to obtain a replacement ring.  

 

If - like me - you prefer not to keep your Leica lens shade on,  I have acquired (on E***) a rubber collapsable lens shade to fit the 49mm thread.  It works well and doesn't introduce any vignetting.
