As I'm waiting on the UV/IR filter for the 21mm 'lux ... But just an  
interesting FYI - the 18mm Super Elmar requires a 'special mounted  
filter' that will screw on beween the body of the lens and the hood!  
Cost ??? But it needs it, and should come with it - and a plain UV  
version. Just MHO, but there's another 'hidden cost' beside the finder  
(if you need or want the Leica one), or you can get an adapter to take  
a huge screw mt. filter; but then you loose hood use and that's not  
the way to go. Pity ..
