john_r_smith Posted January 17, 2008 Share #1 Posted January 17, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Folks I have accidentally come into the possession of a Leica series 8.5 Yellow filter. Has anyone any idea what Leica lens this would fit? The outside diameter is approx 75mm, and it is a drop-in filter with no thread.

garyp Posted January 17, 2008 Share #2 Posted January 17, 2008 It would go into the lens hood of the 21mm 4.0 Super Angulon R lens, maybe others but that one I know about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_r_smith Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share #3 Posted January 17, 2008 Thank you, Gary. I purchased this in error as it was described as a Series 8 filter. If anyone one here would have use for it, I would like to trade it for a Series 8 yellow, which I thought it was. Or a Series 8 red, perhaps.

crm.ecosse Posted January 17, 2008 Share #4 Posted January 17, 2008 To confirm what Gary has said - Leitz filter 13 022, yellow series 8.5, fits into the lens-hood ref. 12 506 of the SUPER-ANGULON-R f/4 21mm [11 813] Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_r_smith Posted January 21, 2008 Author Share #5 Posted January 21, 2008 Well, this filter is in very good condition in the original Leica case. It seems a shame to have it sitting in my cupboard if someone with the right lens could be using it. If any of you R camera users would like it for B/W work, e-mail me with your address and I will post it off to you. No charge.

john_r_smith Posted January 23, 2008 Author Share #6 Posted January 23, 2008 OK, folks, Gary has blagged the filter, so this offer is now CLOSED. Best John Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
