IR filter for Screwmount Elmar?

[Mudman]

Just curious if there's a way to get an IR filter for my Elmar (or my Summar for that manner). Any adapters or push on filters?? Yes I know not to push the lens into the camera.

Cheers,
Eric

Which Elmar exactly?

If you are talking about the 50/3.5 collapsible, you can use filters made for the FSU Industar-22. They are 36mm slip ons. Ebay sellers like Alex-photo usually have them.

Sorry, there have been quite a few Elmars huh? I'm talking about the elmar 50mm f3.5 collapsible. I'm not looking for general A36 slip ons. I'm wondering if there is a 19mm UV/IR filter, or a A36 IR filter so I can use it on my elmar or Summar.

There is no A36 UV/IR filters available to my knowledge but you can use a SOOGZ (# 13154) adapter ring. It's an A36 ring with E39 filter thread allowing the use of 39mm filters. Or if you have appropriate tools you might wish to cut out a 36mm filter glass from a 39mm one and place it into a A36 filter mount.
