Panasonic DMW-LMC46 Multi-Coated Protector Filter for Lumix Cameras
The DMW-LMC46 Multi-Coated Protector Filter is a wise initial investment. It helps protect your valuable investment from dust, moisture and scratches, which can lead to costly repairs. A Protector Filter is probably the most popular filter people use. As a lens protector, it should be left on at all times to guard against front element damage.
A Protector Filter is the best available protection for the front element of your lens. A lens that accidentally gets dropped on its front element while hiking can potentially be saved by purchasing this item. Some people refer to it as "cheap insurance".
- If desired it can be left on the lens at all times for protection

Comments about Panasonic DMW-LMC46 Multi-Coated Protector Filter for Lumix Cameras:
Although a fraction more expensive than others this filter, so far, has worked like a charm. I have not seen any of the lens flare that others have complained about with cheaper filters. A must have with this great lens.

Comments about Panasonic DMW-LMC46 Multi-Coated Protector Filter for Lumix Cameras:
The filter fits on my Lumix lens, thus providing me with some protection against damage. The glass is clear and does not negatively impact image quality. Despite the multi-coating, the glass still creates flaring when pointed toward a light-source--noticeably more flaring than the lens alone produces, but not as much as that resulting from lower priced filters.

Comments about Panasonic DMW-LMC46 Multi-Coated Protector Filter for Lumix Cameras:
If you have decided to spend a hundreds of dollars for a lens it is wise to protect it by a UV protector filter.But it has to be made from a good, transparent glass and Panasonic DMW-LMC46 fulfill that expectationI have also DMW-LMC52 for my other lens which is great too. Those filters were purchased at the B@H Photo Video store [...]It was the only internet store which have both filters in stock. Thank you guys!

Comments about Panasonic DMW-LMC46 Multi-Coated Protector Filter for Lumix Cameras:
This lens protector is the perfect solution to lens protection. It's essential for outdoor photo shoots in gritty environments. Has a very secure fit to the Leica lens of the Lumix, is easily cleaned and causes no color distortions or anomalies. Has no drawbacks that I can tell.
I can't believe I didn't purchase this item at the same time as the camera. It should be first on the list of accessories.

This is the manufacturer's own protective filter, which I bought for my Lumix FZ35. It's well made and multi coated. Be aware, though, that it does not provide UV filtering - I don't understand why Panasonic chose not to incorporate this[...]
