Will this work on a Canon SX40? I cannot find the thread size on my barrel or lens cap?

you could probably google the model of your camera and it will have details there. Mine specifically says 58 mm on the rim. (I see on the picture it says 67 mm. Not sure about that because it fits mine.

I bought the kit last year. Adapter, filters and cap work fine in the Canon SX40 HS. The ruber hood does not, as cuts the corners in 24 mm lens setting. I am very satisfied with this kit. Excellent cost/benefit.

Call up the Vello Free Wave hyperlink (top of page) and look at the 7th item down the list. There is a SX50 listed as compatible, so it should work on a SX40. Dave

What you are seeing are GROOVES, NOT threads!!!The grooves are parallel and not spiral.Anyone who has threaded a filter or lens to the SX10is Or SX20is have tapped their own threads onto the grooves.Although, this may work for a while, after a few changes, the rigged threads will soon wear out and become buggered up.There are some 3rd party adapters that are slotted the same as the hood for filters, but attaching heavy lenses will soon wear out the internal lens mechanism.

The Camera body will not matter only Lens thread size. Maybe your lens is too small or big to fit. It fits my 18 to 55 stock and 35mm 1.8 lens.

I think it should. One review bought it for the 50 and I paste it below. She may give you better advice. Also check dpreview website on the lens diameter of each camera. I own the SX 40.

I imagine it will work fine, but you may need to purchase an adapter so it will fit the threads on the lens.

It should, it works with my SX50 HS, but you need to buy a micro 2.5mm to 2.5mm wire I believe. I did, and I doubt the SX40HS is that different. The wire that comes with it, didn't work with mine, I had to by one, like $4 locally, or about that on Amazon. Mine works very, very well. Check to see what input you have, and buy a proper cable, and you'll be good to go.

This strap size is pretty universal. I'm almost certain it would fit most canon models, including the sx50

it comes with an adapter but im not sure if that will make it fit on a sx40

yes this lense kit works super on the Canon sx510 and 500 very well, and they are good quality. When you thread the lense adapter turn the camera so the lense faces up.... this will make your threading easier.... the reason its tricky to thread is because of the thickness of the adapter... don't give up it will go on fine....

Firstly, Polly, I want to apologize for the extreme delay in answering your question. I attempted to do a little research to see if the cap would fit the size lens you mentioned but I wasn't able to find anything useful and then I forgot to respond. And so I'm afraid my feedback is quite useless because I don't know. But some of the other responses seem to say that it will fit so I hope their feedback helped and good luck!

I am not familiar with the sx30. Sorry, but this should work on any lens with a 77mm diameter.

It will fit the sx40 quite adeptly, but I don't think it will work with a filter installed. Attachment and removal is simple; the hood locks onto the lens via the two notches on the area around the lens cap. There should be no difficulty in storage as the hood installs backwards over the lens. I hope this helps.

It fits on the lens, not the camera, and only to 52 and 58mm threaded lenses. Check the front of your lens and if it is one of those two sizes it should work just fine.

I have used it on a Canon SX40 and also a Canon T3i. Not sure if these are close to your camera sizes but this will give you an idea.

I am not sure, but I can tell that I wanted to use it on the SX50 only, and it is not a great fit to the SX50. It is difficult to put on. This suggests to me that it may have designed for the SX40???
