Hi all,
I just picked up a really nice 105/f3.7 Ektar for my Century Graphics. Does anyone know what size filter adapter I need to put filters on this lens?
Thanks,
Mark |

I have a 1.5" (38mm) series VI adapter ring I use on mine to mount a series VI hood.
Hope this helps.

Ps - I know opinions vary, but my 105mm Ektar is undoubtedly an incredibly fine lens. |

It was the best, most expensive lens for the 2x3 line up. I don't think it was really offered for the cheaper Century but will work just fine.
While the most of the lenses for Speeds and Crowns are all Tessar designs, this one is a 5 element Heliar. Rumor has it that it may use some Lanthanum glass, making it radio active, but I don't think so. I have two of them and so far I haven't seen any browning of the glass or glowing objects in my camera bag so far.
