If anyone has Noblex 150 with filter, could you please measure the diameter of the filter and post the size? Thanks

Noblex filters are not round; they're rectangular glass and held in by a circular holder secured by magnets (I believe that Noblex just bought commercial filters, edged them to the right shape, and popped them into standard plastic holders. If you poke around, you can still find them. Even if you find a color or type you don't really like, you could possibly remove the glass and make it a holder for gels.

Thanks Dante, I was able to acquire a fistful of filters. There are a couple I don't need so I may try replace the glass with something more useful.

The inside diameter of the Noblex ( round) filter that I use is 27.50mm.
You can make your own by epoxying vinyl (refrigerator magnet ) material to the face of a lightweight filter ( I've used 40mm ) as long as you leave an opening 27.50mm so that your filter fits over the lens and seats down onto the surrounding metal surface.
I say face of the filter - so that you have the thread facing out - giving you something to grab with tweezers during installation.
