The thread size is printed on the lens, usually as ø72 on the front rim or on the inside of the lens cap. The number is the filter thread, not the focal length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemscope itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 itemprop=\"name\"\u003eDo I need a UV filter on a digital camera?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemscope itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\"\u003e\u003cp itemprop=\"text\"\u003eNot for image quality, as digital sensors are far less sensitive to UV than film.

A step-up ring from the smaller lens thread to 72mm lets you share one larger filter across several lenses, which is often cheaper than buying one filter per lens.
