Oh but there is! Cokin made a filter holder for use on compact P&S
cameras. Doesn't suit those with Viagra supported zoom lens
extensions but it is perfect for an XA or non-zoom Stylus/Epic/mju.
The filter covers the lens and the finder. Difficult to use with
graduated filters tho' - lots of trial and error (or trail and error
for bushwalkers).
