Filter size for Visoflex 1:3.5 / 65 Elmar

I look in the Wiki section and there was no listing on filter size for the Visoflex 1:3.5 / 65 Elmar. Does anyone know the size for the filter for this lens? I am needing an IR filter on a Visoflex III and M8 for infrared application. Thanks:)

Which kind of Elmar 65 do you have ? If it is the first version (chrome), it surely uses E41 thread filters; I seem to remember that the second version (black) uses instead series VII filters.

I have the chrome version. Thanks! I will begin to look to see who sells 41mm infrared filters.

Luigi,

 

According to the Hove 7th edition the second version (black) uses a series VI filter.

 

I have a second version 65/3.5 Elmar but it takes a 55 mm screw filter and has no ring on the front with the serial number etc so I suspect that mine's been modified.

If your chrome Elmar has serial number 1 697 001 to 2 378 901 then the filter is E41.

To be sure, I suggest that you measure the front ring.
