Receivedf IR Cut Filters?

[johnkendig]

Has anybody out there received their promised IR cut filters from Leica? I registered back in February and haven't heard or seen anything.

Consistent with the message on the Leica Web Site, I received my E39 filter but am still awaiting my E43 filter. It was sent by FebEx from Germany. I registered in December.

I registered in November and received the confirmation from Leica in December but still no filters in sight. In a response to my recent email inquiry, they sent me a reply back telling that that they will be available in a few weeks, I would say in June. In the meantime, I already bought a few to get me going and I will sell whatever is left over when I get them from Leica, I hope before the decade is over... , uh, I mean before the year is over 😀.

Jan 24th Registration 39 and 46 filters 2 weeks ago (in uk).
Richard. Im sure there are plenty of the 39 size but i supect the problem is with other sizes.

 

[Robert]

I received my 39 and 46mm filters last Friday. I had registered my camera about 3 weeks ago.

 

[davichan]

I also received my black 39 and 46mm filters last week. I had registered my camera about 1 month ago.

 

[Gabriel M.A.]

I registered my camera four months ago, and I still have to receive the filters. Not even a "sorry to keep you waiting" or "don't worry, it'll be here before the Halley Comet shows up again" letter.

If I were to purchase them, what would I ask for? I see a lot of UV and other types, but nothing on IR-cut. Thanks

 

[Matthew]

I registered in the beginning of March and received both last week.

Beary,

The B+W filter type is 486 for UV/IR Cut filters. To order Leica filters go to the web site, look at the downloads for frequently asked questions and they give the part numbers. They also give the shipping dates for various filter sizes.

Received my 39 and 43 (silver only) recently (ordered end of Feb '07). The 43 is faulty (wrong thread pitch) and is being returned. See threads here and on LUF about the bad 43mm Leica filters.

Yes, I got my 39mm and 43mm filters last week.

Nothing since December!! OF course i need the 60mm filters. Tony Rose at Popflash has them and sent me a couple. Great folks there.
Damn Leica is slow. No WATE either!

I received mine recently. It took 2 months for a 39 and 46. It does depend on the size. You should have received an email confirming your order when you placed it. If you didn't, you should contact them again.

I got my filters two week ago. Registered i february.

The funny thing is that i ordered two 39mm and got a faulty delivery including one 39mm and one 49mm. Now i wasn't sad about that as i had purchased a Summicron 75 the week before that so these two sizes are my first hand choise now.

Received 2 E46 filters in Norway today, registered less than a month ago.

 

[James (DC)]

I registered in early December and received them (39 black and 46 silver) in late April.
