Hey /p/haggots I'm a newfriend & need help. I got a Nikon J5. I want to know if these filters are the right kind for these lens. I only havwe the lens it came with so far. I ordered a holga turret thats Nikon F and an adapter but for these I shouldn't need the adapter.

Filters are same measurement as lenses to fit right?

and these are the filters.

So my question is will these filters fit both of those lenses and is the rule that the measurement of lenses are to always match the measurement of the lens?

None of these will fit. Because the j5 doesnt have any filter threads for that.

Dude this is a screw on filter type lens you would usually attach to a camcorder.
It won't physically fit on the J5 as the kit lens doesn't have a filter thread. Which is exactly as anon in >>3211650 said.

The two "lenses" you are looking at aren't lenses that mount to the Nikon 1-series camera mount. They're little screw-in lenses designed to make an existing lens wider. So, they need to have a lens on the camera already with a compatible filter thread to work. If you can get those lenses onto another lens on the camera, then yes, you should be able to screw other filters into them.

But you shouldn't. Those lens converters give you images that look like ass, and you're already shooting with a relatively tiny-sensor'd camera so they already probably look a bit assy. Adding cheap filters on top of that is going to make it even worse.

>sensor is even smaller than micro four thirds
nikon really fell flat on their faces with their entry into the mirrorless arena
