Filter overpriced. Shipping Subpar.

The filter is crazy over priced but hey, it?s Leica. Adorama dropped the ball on packaging the filter for shipment. They just tossed it into a non padded envelope. Subpar shipping. Filter recommend.

Summilux 50mm lens hood and filter incompatibility

This filter does not work with the Summilux 50mm lens hood/cap combo that ships with the lens. There is no groove on the filter for the lens hood tabs. BTW: there appears to be no substitute.

Putting the best UVA glass on the Best 35mm lens

Adorama sold me my Leica lenses, the latest being the 35mm Summicron, which I absolutely love. To protect the lens glass I purchased the Leica E39 39mm UVa II Glass Filter rather than a second market filter - why would I skimp on the protective filter after spending the money for the best Leica 35mm lens available? Very pleased with its quality and ease to change to a 3 stop ND filter when needed. The UVA glass filter is always on the lens.

Great Quality!

As always, good fit and finish from this Leica product. The filter fits perfectly on my Leica Q and was well packaged. You get what you pay for.

Quality you can trust from Leica

Trusted quality product from Leica. Matching silver color to a silver lens is nice. It’s not the lowest profile filter but it’s sufficient.

This helps with the 24mm summilux which lacks filter threads.

For photographers seeking superior lens protection and image quality, the E46 46mm UVa II Glass Filter in Silver is an exceptional choice. This advanced UVa II filter safeguards your lens' front elements from scratches, marks, and dirt, ensuring your equipment remains in pristine condition.

Featuring a new multicoating, this filter significantly enhances optical parameters, allowing you to maintain full imaging quality even in unfavorable lighting conditions. This makes it an indispensable tool for photographers working in diverse lighting environments.

One of the standout features of this UVa II filter is its additional thread. This design element allows it to be used in conjunction with other filters, providing an extra layer of protection for your valuable filters.

The E46 46mm UVa II Glass Filter is a testament to superior optical precision. Crafted from high-grade optical glass, it is grinded and polished with the same meticulous attention to detail as Leica's renowned lenses. This filter is manufactured exclusively for Leica, meeting the stringent Leica test and acceptance conditions.

The filter's unrivaled performance is further enhanced by Leica's multi-coating. This is the same coating used on Leica lenses, ensuring the full image quality of the Leica lenses is preserved even in challenging lighting conditions such as backlight. It also reduces light reflections to a mere 0.35%, significantly minimizing glare and enhancing image clarity.

In terms of mechanical craftsmanship, the E46 46mm UVa II Glass Filter is unparalleled. It is made from the same high-quality aluminum as Leica lenses, with a silver or black anodized finish that perfectly matches the Leica lenses. The filter glass is securely held in place with a screw-ring, a superior alternative to a simple clip. The filter also features engraved lettering, a testament to its premium quality and durability.

In summary, the E46 46mm UVa II Glass Filter in Silver is a high-performance, durable, and reliable choice for photographers who demand the best from their equipment.
