Order some new filters from them and check them out, Henning. I have H&H filters made from the late 1940's to the present and have never had a bad one in the bunch. The only caveat is that they are NOT "dyed in the mass" filters as are Heliopan and B+W, but the difference won't matter for anything other than super-critical work despite Zeiss's advertising to the contrary.
