Re: [KOML] Series filters AGAIN!

["James W. (Jim) Simmons" <jwsimmons@kih.net>]

 Series 8 filters are used with the 58mm lens.  I have been reading about
series filters for some time now on this mailing list.  I do not know what
the problem is, I have no problem obtaining series filters, adapter rings
and so on. The only series filters I have found hard to find is series 9,
which I would like to have for a view camera lens I have.Series 8=67mm, If
you need a series adapter let me know.  Once you start using series filters
you will know why the pro's of old (30-40 years ago, and before) used them.
Remember that was what your Koni lenses were designed to be used with!!
