To use 40.5 mm-thread lenses with larger filters you already own, a step-up ring screws into the lens and takes the larger filter: 40.5–43 mm, 40.5–46 mm, 40.5–49 mm. 40.5–43 mm ring 40.5–46 mm ring 40.5–49 mm ring
Filters smaller than 40.5 mm (39 mm) need a step-down ring, which darkens the corners on most lenses; we do not suggest it. Smaller-thread lenses can use 40.5 mm filters through a step-up ring: 39 mm lenses.
