Subject: [Leica] Series VII IR cut filters?

Bob,

This is late so you have already gotten the answer, but I also have the same 
lens.  I use the 49mm IR filter in the lens hood holder and this works just 
fine.  Also, the new price list from Leica lists a series 7 ir filter, so 
they do now make one for this lens.
