There is also an SOOQR but I think that is the other way round to enable you to use Summitar filters on an e39 lens. Confused - well certainly I am.

Hi Wilson,

Sorry for the delay in replying. Yes, I am certain that my SNHOO screws into the Summitar.

HMMM....last week I saw an ad supposedly for a SNHOO on eBay, but the fellow actually was showing a photo of a SOOQR. I sent the seller an email pointing out his error and he quickly replied admitting to his mistake. I think he even made a "corrrection note" within the eBay ad (but you had to read the fine print). Here it is:

Leica SNHOO 13078 adapter Summitar filter to E39 RARE! - eBay (item 220213678484 end time Mar-23-08 17:30:39 PDT)

So don't worry, you aren't the only one confused. But I hope it wasn't you or anyone on this forum who got caught paying $78 for the SOOQR (they usually go for much less)!
