Filter sizes · 72mm
85 lenses in our catalogue take 72mm screw-in filters. A 72mm filter fits any of them. Below: the circular polariser, 10-stop ND and variable ND to buy at three price points, with the price at each UK shop.
Budget, mid-range and premium are the 25th, 50th and 75th price percentile among the 72mm filters of each kind we list, so the picks hold steady as stock changes.
Cuts reflections off water, glass and foliage and deepens a blue sky. The one filter most people should own.
A 10-stop neutral density filter for long exposures in daylight: smoothed water, streaked clouds, empty streets.
A twist-to-set ND, typically 2–5 or 1–9 stops, for holding a cinematic shutter speed in bright light when shooting video.
Grouped by mount. Thread sizes come from each lens maker's spec page.
Tip: if your lenses use several sizes, buy filters for the largest and use step-up rings for the rest. Prices are new-condition prices from UK retailers we track; GearFrame may earn a commission when you buy through a shop link. All filter sizes
