Want to Buy WTB Bessa II filters and lens

[RobertP]

I'm looking for an orange filter and Focar lenses for a Bessa II. These are 37 mm push on mount.

Very rare items. you should follow the Ebay.de site and expect to pay 20-40 euros for the orange (but it's months I can't find one). the focar is more common.
good Luck.

Would those filters fit your Bessa ? http://www.ebay.at/sch/m.html?_odkw...p++on.TRS0&_nkw=filter+37mm+slip++on&_sacat=0

I bought several filters from this seller - grading is reliable - prices are fair.

I think they will. but no orange

Yep, 37mm slip-on filters are not easy to come by. I spent several years accumulating a small selection (medium yellow, yellow-green, red) plus a hood. I'd love to find an orange and/or a deep yellow, but I'm not holding my breath.

Get yourself a 37mm series VI adapter ring. They are plentiful and cheap, as are the series VI filters, either on the auction site, or at one of the numerous camera swap meets around the country. The 37mm end slips on the lens. The opposite end is threaded to accept a retaining ring to hold the filter in place, or a lens hood, which can also hold the filter in place. The threaded end is available in various diameters. You can often rummage around in boxes of odds and ends at the swap meets and find them for a dollar or two. I've outfitted two Bessas and an Ikoflex in this manner. There is quite a selection on the auction site right now, though I can't say if there are any 37mm.
