Any one knows about filters for the Fuji Finepix S602Z?

What do you want to know about them? Which ones to buy for a new S602?

If so, get a 55mm "tube" for the camera if you don't already have it and then buy a decent quality UV filter (also 55mm) that will screw onto the end of the tube. This will protect your lens when it is extended and also prevent dust from entering the camera when the lens extends and retracts.

Then you may also want to buy a polarizing filter. They are used to cut out extreme light, when it bounces off water or glass, etc. Be sure that your UV filter has threads to allow the polarizing filter to screw into.

Check out this website for a good selection:

I have the extention tube and the filters for the finepix, but most of the time i do not use them. I find it is very easy to create the same filter effects in photoshop, so easy in fact, that most of the time i just use photoshop instead of the oncamera filters (one less this to drag around and mess with).

Thanks for your replay, but I think that with Photoshop when there is no relevant info or not enough info in the picture one can't make changes as real as with a filter.
