George Stoichev Posted June 28, 2022 Share #21 Posted June 28, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) I didn’t understand. I already purchased the lens, it has rare and from caps, but not filter. I always use filter for lens protection. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted June 28, 2022 Posted June 28, 2022 Hi George Stoichev, Take a look here Help! Elmarit-M 135mm/2,8 Filter Size. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
George Stoichev Posted June 28, 2022 Share #22 Posted June 28, 2022 This is what I found - E55 doesn’t say anything about another option/models/versions Welcome, dear visitor!

a.noctilux Posted June 28, 2022 Share #23 Posted June 28, 2022 You will see when you receive the lens, with serial number from start it was for Series VII but Leitz could modify for E55 in the past. As seen this chart was "current" Leica M lenses (rather newer than the serial number you provided). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Stoichev Posted June 29, 2022 Share #26 Posted June 29, 2022 What modification you’re talking about? How to check? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many years ago, as traditional in Leitz history, the company offered to update old cameras and lenses, when possible. In my litterature ( don't ask me more! ), I learned some modifications offered on lenses which accepted old style size filters (Series...) to modern size Exx. So if the lens at first was Serie VII filter (M54 x 0.75) modified by Leitz later ( at a cost from customer request ! ) to accept E55 filters (M55x0.75), the only way to know is having the lens to verify, if not having the receipt of modification (Serie VII to E55) or as I stated some posts before looking if the ring 14161 attached meaning non modified filter thread = accept only Serie VII filters. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
