bob fowler Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 A 49mm Series VI adapter shouldn't be too hard to locate. They pop up on ebay quite often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_shriver Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 A Series VI adapter for a 49mm lens is a slight step-down to the filter. But, since you're making your 135mm lens a longer focal length by using it, you should just squeak by. In general, I'd use Series VII filters on a 49mm lens.

harry_martin Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 DaveThat should work great! Another way would be to tape the -4 lens to the lens rear element. A reminder,the arrow must point toward the film plane when the minus lens is used on the rear element. Harry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
