The main purpose of the filter is to protect the front elements of the camera lens from scratches, marks, and dirt, while also filtering out ultraviolet light which can degrade image quality. It also allows for use in combination with other filters.
This filter stands out due to its advanced multicoating technology that preserves full imaging quality even in challenging lighting conditions, its compatibility with other filters, and its superior craftsmanship including high-grade optical glass and a sleek black anodized finish.
While the Series VII UVa II Glass Filter is manufactured exclusively for Leica and matches perfectly with Leica lenses, it may also fit other lens brands that accept the same filter thread size. Always check your lens specifications before purchasing.
The filter glass is securely held in place with a screw-ring, a design that is more reliable and secure than a simple clip.
The additional thread allows the UVa II filter to be used in combination with other filters. This expands your creative possibilities and provides additional protection for your other filters.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
