raizans Posted April 29, 2023 Share #1  Posted April 29, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) What have people found for their rangefinder lens filters? Compact flash card wallets? Filter caps? It's far too difficult to find a product made specifically for rangefinder lenses. 😢 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted April 29, 2023 Posted April 29, 2023 Hi raizans, Take a look here Filter wallet / filter case / filter pouch for 39mm and 43mm filters. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
UliWer Posted April 29, 2023 Share #2 Â Posted April 29, 2023 Well, usually all filters are sold in plastic cases - no exception for 39 or 43mm filters. If I carry different filters, I use them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandro_m Posted April 29, 2023 Share #3  Posted April 29, 2023 I use a Compact Flash cards wallet for the 39mm filters. I bring with me always several b&w filters, a Polarizer, a graduated neutral density for the skys, a IR715 filter. It was a nightmare before I discoverd the CF wallet. I also bring several 46mm filters for the 24mm and 90mm lenses; the only solution Ihave found is the keep them togheter with screw cap on both ends. Quite annoying when I need one filter … but traditional filter wallet start from 52mm, if you have 6/8 filters the wallet is really big. I now use a CF wallet also for the Rolleiflex Bay III filters. I don’t see any limitation in this solution. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anbaric Posted April 29, 2023 Share #4 Â Posted April 29, 2023 I don't have one, but JJC makes filter pouches in a couple of sizes, the smallest taking 4 filters up to 58mm, model JJC FP-K4S. Still a little big for 43mm, but smaller than most, and with a neoprene lining that's probably softer than a CF card wallet. https://www.amazon.co.uk/JJC-Protective-Neoprene-Interior-microfiber/dp/B097R525PD/?th=1 Or maybe this Shimoda wrap, which goes up to 52mm: https://www.speedgraphic.co.uk/cable_other_pouches/shimoda_mini_wrap_black/30692_p.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good size for Hasselblad B50 filters, but it's on the large side for 39mm and 43mm filters. It also has a bulky belt strap that I never use, and the translucent sheet makes it hard to tell the difference between yellow and yellow-green filters, much less haze and KR1.5.

mmradman Posted April 30, 2023 Share #6  Posted April 30, 2023 Multiple small filters fit into large filter case, these can be bought separately, large case in photo is B&W. Any gaps can be filled by rubber grommets or O-rings which can be found in any hardware store, these prevent rattling in transport.    Welcome, dear visitor!

rramesh Posted April 30, 2023 Share #7 Â Posted April 30, 2023 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) I use filter caps that screw into both ends of a stack of filters of the same size. Compact and provides good protection. It works for me as all my filters are 46mm. Can get them on eBay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/254311640652?hash=item3b3627ae4c:g:hzUAAOSwYudXGJgS&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA8NtdoGi4QppP7twfEq%2FgCNHszC5UykAbC4xNpupB75l2VLzoR6mccBO9xXJUOk17dRA5fkL8B7YiMOiHoHsxO%2BbPRzm1%2FLhaxP%2FjZ6P2G5fryqzqaIPrImBHcJRNCllLGG5%2Bv0wDhWnIkqLC5tjrUWwLYoOw2Kf7KmquqhgJ0Qjyn7viHkF142QjIXzhwBc4YoSYDutCL8VvgLhfK3I9APLCCPHPXhYEiKLD76ur9iZ0pwZsIVK4Wm7rJecZglr8ngoY16BgHLfv8rZ4AVnipSqh%2BPf%2BIzjGZZMr50W19KZMcB78DCe9JWFHtqFYy7Hp2w%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR4bd0Z76YQ Edited April 30, 2023 by rramesh 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

250swb Posted June 19, 2023 Share #16 Â Posted June 19, 2023 Buy a camera bag large enough to have some spare pockets and just drop the filters in, it doesn't need to be such a performance. For storing them at home I use filter wallets similar to that shown in post #5, each with large enough pockets that 39mm and 46mm filters can be stored side by side, so in a wallet with eight pouches I store 16 filters. Larger filters for my Nikon's and medium format I have wallets with larger pouches, and for large format filters they stay in the camera rucksack in their original plastic boxes.

lct Posted June 19, 2023 Share #17 Â Posted June 19, 2023 I simply use plastic cases sold by Leica with the filters. Easy drop in the bag and good mechanical protection. Not sure why one would need anything else if not for aesthetical reasons. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
romualdo Posted June 20, 2023 Share #18  Posted June 20, 2023 something I picked up a few years ago - definitely not a Leica item IMHO (no logo/lettering) but it's made for 3 x 39mm filters Welcome, dear visitor!
