I don't have a part number for the MRC version of the B+W 60mm 103 ND 0.9 (8x) neutral density filter. However you can obtain them from Michael Huppert at Willkommen bei Foto Huppert in germany as a special order with an estimated 4 weeks delivery. I would assume a 2x ND 0.3 and 4x ND 0.6 MRC version is also available.

 

Their standard filter order number is 960,103 and you need the MRC version of that. Earlier in the year they quoted me 79.90 Euro + 11.00 Euro shipping charge to UK for the MRC version. Michael Huppert speaks good english and you can obtain his email address etc. by clicking on the "zum shop" button on their home page.

 

I obtained the filter for the Nocti1.0, I'm assuming it fits the 0.95 Nocti since that also takes a 60mm filter, however the 0.95 data sheet states "Screw-on filter E60 with accessory filter holder" so why do you need a filter holder?

This is a complete mystery -- the .95 Nocti I tried last year had a plain 60mm filter thread.

 

The only explanation possible is that a prototype lens did use an adapter, this was changed late in the process, and somebody in Solms (who now has his pointed hat firmly pulled down over his eyes) goofed and used an older spec sheet.
