Hi Warren,

Yes, I can confirm I fitted a standard B+W UV 37mm filter under the hood - not a slimline filter. I have also tried a Tiffen ND filter. They both fit fine, with a little room to spare. You just about can see it in some of my photos. I think there's only space for 1 filter at a time, unless you get slim filters (which I haven't seen for 37mm filter threaded cameras).

I'm waiting for a 37mm variable ND to be released (promised in mid July) and will report on that when it arrives.

I'll try to remember to post some photos of this later.

Thanks for your prompt reply, just makes the wait to get the camera even more painful!!!

My experiment with the NX70 and the Vinten Vision Blue. Hurrah!

Warren,

I forgot about the filter pics. It's actaully kind of hard to take a useful photo of the filter inside the hood, but I tried!
