Filter thread change step things

[Chim_Knee]

Hi,

Which way does it work filter-to-lens or lens-to-filter? I.e. I have a 62mm filter and a 58mm lens (which way does the stepper nomenclature work?) Do I get a 62-58 or a 58-62 (for example)

TIA,
Phil.

It must be lens to filter, that's the only logical way!

Logic! Y'see, there's the rub!

To me it was a "do shoes go on your feet or your feet in your shoes?" type thing!

Thanks for the clarification though.
