Hi,

Does a 4x4 filter cover the entire front of lens?


Thank you.

Not!!!!

And Zeiss Master Prime lenses? Is 4x4 size only valid for still photo lens?

4x4 will not cover Master Primes either.

4x4 is a fairly antiquated size as it mostly only covers smaller lenses that are generally of an older design. If I were investing in filters I would certainly want to go to at least 4x5.65 at minimum. Better to future proof yourself to some degree.

Then, is 4x5.65 size valid for Zeiss Master Prime lenses? And for Red Pro 18-85?

Thank you.
