How funny. So nobody at Canon noticed those threads on the lens? To which a 37 mm filter attaches perfectly but apparently shouldn’t?

Are you sure the filter is not cutting a thread for itself and it is just the diameter that is right. This issue on the lenses not being properly threaded for filters is very old and has been much discussed over the years. If there are signs that a filter has been forced on the lens that would seem a bit of a warranty killer.

Yes, I’m sure. The filter screws on and off easily.

Here’s a closeup of the lens threads.
