Amazon X-E1/18-55 Special Offers w/PRF-39 or PRF-52???
5 months ago

Amazon is giving away FUJINON PRF filters with the X-E1/18-55 Kits. (See "Special Offers") The problem is that the 18-55 f/2.8-4 has threads for 58mm filters. (PRF-58)

What are we supposed to do with a 39 or 52mm filter when buying the kit?

Am I missing something here? Or is it a ploy to get us to buy the 35 or 60 prime to go with one of those filters! Ha! Ha! Even when I get my 14mm f/2.8 it will need a 58mm filter.

There's going to be a flurry of returns and exchanges on those filters - so those of you're holding primes that will use these PRF sizes then you will be getting some good "Used" pricing from Amazon come January! I would hold off on buying a filter for now.
