Hi

I have an X U Typ 113 camera. It has no means of attaching threaded filters.

Does anyone know of any aftermarket filter holders that may clamp onto lens?

Regards

Hi allans1976

I found a square filter holder that actually squeezes on around the lens and will take a few filters.

I will get a photo and make if possible. Got it from eBay I think. If you drop me a mail to.. stevij99 AT Gmail DOT com 

I'll send when I can..👍

Hi allans1976

Here is link to coking filter holder that actually squeezes onto the front of camera. It works..

Just bought a s/h XU … please see #98

  … and mention of Raynox supplementary close up lens therein. The Raynox holder clips into the XU front lens bezel but best to clip it where it does not make contact with the tiny screw heads. The actual 43mm c/u lens can be unscrewed from the holder and a regular 43mm filter substituted … and there's no vignetting with a regular 43mm filter … unlike when the c/u lens is used.  Screwing in a regular 43mm filter requires dexerous use of fingernail tips to grip the filter mount … but can be done … but best not to screw in too tightly.
