It's that time of life when you start long term spring cleaning. I've some felt/velvet lined, slip on Leica filters in the box that I thought fitted the Summitar but they don't. They are a loose fit.
Casting around I discovered that they slip on, and fit nicely, a 43mm dia lens. Only I haven't one but the extension tube of the BELUN is 43mm dia! So it's an "A 43" but I didn't know such things existed...
The green one is marked "Gr." so no problems there but the two red ones are marked "R.h." and "R.m." and - if you glanced quickly at R.h. - you'd think it was a ND factor 8 or more; it really is very,very dark red.
So can any one out there in Leicaland identify the lens they slip-on to? and the type of filter and factor?
Many thanks in advance.
Regards, David
