Filter - Lens Size Problem

[newtocanon]

Hey All,
I need some crucial info before I go buying stuff.
I have an A95, lensmate adaper, Tiffen 2x TC, Tiffen.56x WA.

I want to get a UV Haze1 and CPL filter for my setup. I have a few scenarios that I am not sure which one to follow:


Do I buy a single 37mm UV and CPL filter to put at the end of the adapter but before the lenses. (2 filters)
Buy a UV and CPL filter for each of the lenses , 55mm and 72mm. (4 filters)
Option 1 & 2, most versatile for using all lenses plus no lenses. ( 6 filters)
I like option 1 but will putting a filter between the adapter and lens cause any issues when taking pictures?

Any insite or comments are greatly appreciated.

Depends on the aftermarket lenses. I know that with my S1 IS, I have to put the filter on first or the lens smacks into the back of the telephoto lens, making a nasty noise and causing an E18 error. I screw the telephoto to the UV or circular polarizer .

I have an old .6x aux lens for my A70 adapter. When I use filters I have to mount them before the lens. It worked fine.

Option 1. will cause problems. The distanse between the lense and the converter is of great importance. Study the issue in detail on lensemate.com. The pictures will become blurry.
