Any compact digital cameras that can be used with filters?

Hi,I did the following:

Any compact digital cameras that can be used with filters?I'm looking for a compact digital camera that filters can be fitted to so that I can use filters in my photography.
Are there any on the market?
I'm looking at high spec cameras, not budget ones.
Any info would be appreciated.

Yes there are certain model that can be use w/ filters..but you have to buy an adapter for the certain size of the filter you like to use. Manufacturers make one adapter specifically for that model of camera. So you have to find out what camera you like to own and look to see if there is an adapter for it.

That really is not too practical for a compact digital due to the fact that most of their lenses retract into the body when you turn them off. Most any camera shop should be able to come up with an adapter ring that snaps over the out side front edge of the lens, to take what ever filters you want, but you will most likely have to take it off when the camera is shut down. You also have white balance built in and, in some cases, some filers, so I'm not sure what kind of filters you think you need. That is one reason I up-graded from my Toshiba compact to my Pentax SLR and I keep a UV filter on all my lenses as they are one heck of a lot cheaper than a new lens. Also, I do use my polarizing filter quite a bit on my 18x55 lens.

Almost all superzoom cameras (look at specs and reviews) and these like Canon G9, A650 IS or Nikon P5100. Some have threaded lens, somewhere you will need an adapter.
