I'm hoping that some of the folks here with experience using Leica R lenses can assist.
I have a bunch of Leica R lenses and am trying to get a couple of ND filters for them. The ones I most likely want filters for are the 24mm, 50mm, 90mm, and 180mm.
- The Elmarit-R 24mm is listed to take a "Series 8" filter. Is this a threaded size? or does it need a holder? Can't seem to find a filter sized this way other than for Series 8 filter holders. What size thread is this for use with a Cokin type square filter holder?
- The others are listed as E55 size. What does "E55" mean? Is this a standard 55mm threaded filter size?
Thanks! It's confusing the way these lenses are listed for filter sizes.
