Nikon 8700 - Advice on filters

Anyone know of a means to afix a filter to the front of a Nikon 8700, other
that purchasing the Nikon Hood which will then allow 77mm filters?

Thanks

Mark

I was at Helix Camera in Chicago, a pretty huge dealer in Nikon Cameras and
Accesories. I explained to them that I need some sort of adapter to allow me
to screw my ring light flash onto the lens of my coolpix 8700. They told me
the onlything I could do was use the lens hood which has a 77mm filter
thread which will not work for me.

Will this UR E5 adapter allow me to attached a 52mm filter or ringlight?

Thanks

Out of curiosity, why do you want to avoid the Nikon adapter? I use the
UR-
E5 on my CP-5000 nearly 100% of the time and I love it.
