Any good camera shop has these or can get them for you.  I use a 39-48 and
a 48-55 together to get from 39 to 55, but you can also order one step-up
ring that accomplishes the same thing.  The step-up combination does not
cause vignetting with a 50mm lens, but I can't say for certain that the
same would be true with 35mm or wider lenses.
   Leica does not make step-up rings or filters with a titanium finish.
Black is most common, scarcer but still available are ones in chrome, and
are offered by third party vendors.
