want to buy a UV filter for it.For that I need to know what my lens's mount is. For filters, the type of mount doesn't matter. Fortunately, camera manufacturers got together and agreed on standard thread sizes for filters, so you can use any manufacturer's filters. The only thing you need to know is the diameter of the front of the lens.
Near the front of the lens, you should find a symbol that looks like a circle with a stroke through it, followed by a number. If you can't find that, then look on the inside of the lens cap, where you should see text that says "62 mm", or "58 mm" or whatever. If that fails, use a ruler to find the diameter of the lens (across the front) in millimetres.
That is the size of filter you need. If you're still in doubt, ask the store clerk if the filter you've picked out will fit on Nikon lenses. |
