58mm Close up filters

[Guest]

I have a set of close up filters, +1 +2 +4 & +10 they are 58mm thread which isnt right for the lens I use them with. If anyone has a lens with a 58mm thread on the end that they could use them on  let me know and I will post them to you

Is your lens a  bigger or smaller thread than 58mm, Richard?

If your lens is smaller, you could use a step up ring to make the filter thread fit.

its 52mm and I have a set of 52mm ones now so the 58mm are surplus to requirements

Oh I see!

good of you to offer them to members Richard unfortunately they will not fit any of my lens otherwise I would have given them a go.

fairly sure the Fuji HS's are 58mm if that helps anyone, the FZ's are 52mm

Anybody with smaller filter threads, as Nanny says, could buy a step up ring to use them:-

If used on a lens with a smaller filter thread it would also mean only the more central area of the supplementary lens (close up filter) would be being used and that as with all lenses usually has a flatter field than it's edges.
