Stock screen on filter no glass?

[dbo]

when I removed the screw on factory filter it had no glass is this normal?

 

[JoshuaCarlton]

yes there is no glass in the stock lens ring.

This is completely normal, it's more to protect the screw thread than provide direct protection for the lens.

If you'd like to add a layer of glass to protect the camera, here are a few UV filters you could replace that ring with:

• PolarPro Mavic Air UV Filter
  
  
  
  
• FreewellGear Mavic Air UV Filter
  
  
  
  
• PGYTECH Mavic Air UV Filter
