Try the german company Heliopan, http://www.heliopan.de/ They make all kinds of filters/steprings. Also centerfilters - an essential gadget if you plan to use your 21mm for landscape-photography. (eliminates falloff)

I have owned a iic enlarger for the last ten years, but is unable to
obtain satisfying results with my prints. The sharpnes from the
varioelmar 100mm lens does not reflect the crispness of my Maniya 7
negatives. (center might be sharp, but corners are really poor)Is it
possible to fit the iic with moderne lenses of another brand? I have
heard that the focotar ii lenses are really hard to find on the market?

Best camera to produce poster size pics????

The perception of a postersize photograph depends very much on your chosen subject. By defining the subject, you will also get better answers to what kind of equipment you need to get the job done. In general landscapes will require high resolutions to give good results alas portraits and pictures along the documantary line can work well, originating from a small format negative. Landscapes require more detail because the viewer tend to pay more attention to details when looking at theese pictures.
For postersize landscapes the minimum should be the 6x7 cm. format. It might be hard to get a camera with a good lens for lees then 1000usd. A good lens, fine grain film and a supersturdy tripod is the clue to good quality.
I have had some of my 6/7 negs scanned for postersize reproduction.I think the filesize for a 1,2 x 1,5 meter display was around 700 mb.
If you are planning to use a digital SLR - wich will not work good for landscapes in this size - you should not concider anything below 10 megapixels.
Good luck
