Lens Filter Size Chart for Canon Lenses

Here are the lens diameters and corresponding filter sizes for common Canon lenses.

Note that my focus here is on lenses that accept screw-in filters on the front. Some lenses, such as very wide-angle or fisheye lenses, don’t have a filter thread on the front and can’t accept this style of filter. And some very long telephoto lenses use a system of drop-in filters at the rear of the lens.

Some focal lengths have multiple lenses, so it’s important to match the other parts of the name. For example, Canon has a couple of versions of the 16-35mm focal length, and each takes filters of a different diameter.

This is an ongoing list and clearly doesn’t cover every lens Canon has ever made. I’m starting with their current range and adding older lenses to it as the opportunity arises. And I haven’t included the more specialized Cinema and Broadcast series lenses here. Please feel free to send through any additions, requests, or corrections.

If you don’t see your lens listed here and want to find out the filter size, it’s often marked on the lens itself. For a more detailed guide, see my post on finding the lens diameter.

A quick way to filter down from this long list is to use the chart’s search bar to narrow down by focal length (eg. type in “24-105”).
