You have it!
There are a few lenses in the system with filter sizes that differ from 46mm - my 65mm lens and its 49mm filter size being an example - but if your system expands, the 46mm filters will serve you well.

That being said, if you decide to go the filter size adapter route, 49mm works well.
Just look out for extra lens caps sized for the 65mm lens :smile:
Lens hoods as well.

The 180mm and 250mm use the larger diameter filters, too.
 
Do you have some examples of images taken with this Matt?

Here are some - with some helpful info: https://www.photrio.com/forum/threads/choices-for-ir-film.174757/#post-2273526

I recently bought a C33 but was unable to find a source of longer focal length lenses. If anybody knows a reliable source in EUrop, would appreciate hearing about that. Thank you.

BTW, we have a licensed Hoya shop here so I bought a bunch of filters for B&W. The green variants cost me about 24 euros equivalent and the red, orange etc. were about 36 euros.

If you are looking for alternative lenses for a C33 (and, I think, one of the C330 variants) you should be aware that Mamiya TLR lenses are not all the same and that there are lenses that will not fit on a C33. There are references out on the net (I have seen this in a comprehensive timeline for Mamiya TLRs but I haven't bothered to keep the reference, no longer relevant to me) as to which models of lens are concerned. In my case I learnt the hard way. I was given a 180mm lens for my C33 and the shutter armament arm fouled on the lens body. I no longer have the camera to hand, I do still have the lens (keeping for the shutter in case I am ever in need of spare parts) which is full of haze and fungus and has a large hole in the side which I hacked to fit it to the C33 body. Mine had been through a car crash and was scratched and horribly soft so I never persevered.

In the UK there is Analogue Cameras who sometimes have Mamiya TLR lenses (and cameras) in stock (and cheaper than Kamerastore I think.

Thank you, I was not aware of that. This is good info.

We cannot buy anything from outside the EU unless it ships DDP which almost nothing does.
