jcbjr Posted March 27, 2007 Share #1 Â Posted March 27, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) i ordered my two leica issue filters last december, sizes 55mm and 60mm. i have not received them yet, but have satisifed my need for these sizes separately. now i find myself in need of a 46mm, which seems to be harder to come by. is anyone interested in swapping their 46mm for a 55mm or 60mm once they are delivered? i imagine others are in this situation given the extended delivery times for these filters, so perhaps an organized swap would be helpful. any takers?

carstenw Posted March 27, 2007 Share #2 Â Posted March 27, 2007 I have exactly coming what I need, although I could imagine myself needing another 60mm down the road, for a Noctilux. There are others, however, who need these. There was a thread recently started by someone who wanted to swap a 49mm for a 60mm, IIRC. Try looking backwards in the threads a few pages, or use the search function. How did you satisfy the 60mm need? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â and let me know if you need the 60mm, carsten, and when it arrives i'd be pleased to sell it to you at whatever the list price is. hopefully i can find a 46mm and use proceeds toward it.

marco_rol Posted March 28, 2007 Share #5 Â Posted March 28, 2007 John, Â I have a 46mm on the way and have purchased two in the interim. I would be interested in swapping the 46mm for a 60mm when it arrives (and I'm in Boston area as well). Let me know and I'll PM you. Â Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_Brittenson Posted March 28, 2007 Share #6 Â Posted March 28, 2007 I have silver B&H 486 filters in 39, 43, 46 (x2). I'd love to trade them for black. Also have a spare silver 37 I have no use for. (I'll throw in a 36-to-37 step up with it, also silver. Won't fit my 50/2 Summitar.) Â BTW, the slim version of the 486 comes with a nice Schneider push-cap, at least the 49mm. Recommended! (Got one for my 75/2.) The spare 49 I have isn't the slim kind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Mitchell Posted March 28, 2007 Share #9 Â Posted March 28, 2007 I ordered a silver 46 from Leica as one of my two choices. When it arrives, I'll be looking to trade that for another black 39. I'm also looking for a 48mm IR-cut filter. Does anyone make them in this size? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sean_reid Posted April 18, 2007 Share #19 Â Posted April 18, 2007 For what it's worth, my tests are showing me that the firmware corrects cyan drift as well for the 486 as for the Leica filter on 28 and 35 mm Leica lenses. Haven't yet tested the 24. So 486s should still be useful for lots of lenses. Â Cheers, Â Sean Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
