Build your setup

Everything your Q3 43 lens needs.

Start with the Real Lens Hood, then add the 49mm filters that match how you shoot.

The Real Lens Hood

The hood Leica should have had.

It protects the lens, gives you direct filter access, and lets you control polarization without putting a finger on the glass.

Exploded view of the Freewell Leica Q3 43 Real Lens Hood, CPL + Black Mist 1/4 filter and NFC lens cap with red control tabs
  1. 01

    Rotate. Never touch.

    Use the two red tabs to adjust the CPL smoothly while your fingers stay away from the optical glass.

  2. 02

    Flip open. Change filters.

    Open the hood for direct access to the 49mm thread—no need to remove the complete hood from the camera.

  3. 03

    CPL + Black Mist 1/4 included.

    Control reflections and soften highlights with the hybrid filter already fitted inside the hood.

  4. 04

    Support in one tap.

    The included NFC lens cap connects you to setup guidance, warranty registration, and Freewell support.

See it in action

Flip. Swap. Shoot.

Leica Q3 43 questions, answered

Everything to know before it joins your camera.

Is the Freewell Real Lens Hood compatible with the Leica Q3 28?

No. The Real Lens Hood shown here is designed specifically for the Leica Q3 43 and is not compatible with the Leica Q3 28.

Does the Leica Q3 43 lens hood include a filter?

Yes. The lens hood includes a replaceable 49mm hybrid CPL and Black Mist 1/4 filter. It reduces reflections, improves contrast, and adds a softer highlight character.

Can I use other filters with the Real Lens Hood?

Yes, but the filter must have a 49mm thread and an outer diameter no larger than 51mm. Anything wider than 51mm will not fit inside the Real Lens Hood. Freewell VND 1–5 stop, CPL, Gold Mist 1/4, and Glow Mist 1/8 filters meet this requirement and are available separately.

Do I need to remove the lens hood to change a filter?

No. The quick-flip design opens the hood for direct filter access, so you can change a threaded filter without removing the complete hood.
