Leica 43mm filters

[JoeMac]

Looking for a yellow and orange 43mm Leica filter. Any ideas on where I can find them?

Thanks

Any particular reason for it to be engraved Leica? Leica gets their filters OEM'd by the likes of B+W and you will pay a lot less for a B+W filter than a Leica filter. Also B+W only supply the single-coated glass to Leica, they keep the multi-coated (MRC) ones for their own brand. Most major stores carry B+W.

On my MP-3 50mm 1.4 lux lense, it was made like the old ones and therefore the hood won't fit over other brands of filters.

OK. I don't like the Leica hoods so I use 3rd party hoods from eBay seller heavystar that screw into regular threaded filters. I have a beautiful little 43mm hood from him for my pre-ASPH 50/1.4. 🙂
