B&W orange or red filter for B60

[kal800]

hi,

need advise what is the best way to have that filter for my Hassy:

1. Seek for original Hasselblad branded one
2. Buy third party for B60 mount - what would be the best value? any company still produces new ones?
3. Buy good quality B60/72mm adaptor and pro grade filter for thread mount?

thanks in advance for your remarks

I prefer to use filters in B-60 because it as more convenient than adapters. Haven't shopped for filters in a long time so don't know what's available except what is seen on eBay. If using an adapter, though, use B-60to67. That will fit inside the Hassy lens shade.

I like Heliopan and B+W filters for the Hasselblad.

Brass is the way to go. I'm using a cheap aluminum one and it is a little too flimsy for my taste.
