40mm UV-IR cut filter

Looking for a 40mm UV-IR filter for Canon 50mm f/1.8 and 35mm f/2 lenses (I know I could use step up rings to get to a larger diameter but would prefer not to).

 

There are a couple of £20 options on the bay sold for Fuji X10 (I do not think I am allowed to put the link up here - but they are easily found) - one of them is branded as a Rocolax.

 

Anyone any views - should they work ok? - notwithstanding the usual lens is only as good as your last glass etc..

 

Will use the M8/Canon mainly for B&W (without UV-IR) but this would give an easy colour option when required.

I use a Rocolax UV-IR on my Canon 35mm f2 which has a 40mm filter thread.

Works fine. And the threads take a lens hood as well.

Take them off at night, not needed anyway, because they cause some pretty wild flare spots.

Ordered one - thanks!
