X1 - any provision for a hood or filters?

[Ken Ford]

Did any of you that handled an X1 yesterday notice whether provision was made for a hood or filters? A body thread with a tube as used by Canon and by Oly on the old x0x0 series would do it.

I'm very concerned about damaging the delicate retracting lens and I *always* use a hood.

I handled it briefly at B&H in NYC. Yes it has threads. Not sure on the size.

Cool! Where were the threads - did the knurled ring closest to the body screw off ala Canon?
