I am supposed to be getting my FZ150 on Friday. My filters (polarizing, etc) are sized for my other camera at 58mm. Will it hurt my fz150 to use a step up ring and my 58mm filters, or do I have to buy another set of filters for it?
Thanks for any help, Lyn |

G'day Lyn
Firstly - welcome to the forum > you'll find lots of nice people here all willing to help As the FZ100-150 lens does not withdraw completely into the camera body after power-off, yes, you certainly can run a 52>58mm step up ring for your existing 58mm accessories Earlier FZ models' lenses withdraw into the body, thus causing a jamming of the lens Also - as Alex says ^ ... you can also get 52mm accessories if you wish Regards, Phil

Thanks to you both for a warm welcome. Good to know I can start out with a step up ring so I can use my old filters for a while.
Phil, I was afraid the lens did withdraw completely, so it's really good to hear that it does not. It seems I keep downsizing - first a Nikon d90 that got too heavy for hiking, then an Olympus micro four thirds that is small enough, but I kept missing shots due to having to change the lens - hopefully third times the charm and the FZ150 will do it for me!
