Re: Macro/close up filters.

I used to have a set of three but I didn't find them all that good on my Nikon lens. As for filters for your camera make sure that, first of all the camera will accept filters and then check you get the right mm size

Re: Macro/close up filters.

I have a macro filter for my Panasonic FZ50, works great, go for the best you can afford though.

Panasonics are very versatile cameras, and a great Leica lens. I love mine xxx
