Hi Luggers.

My friendly Irish postie brought me a package from Germany this 
morning with two B+W 486 MRC IR/UV cut filters. One was the rare E41 
size for my 35/1.4 pre-ASPH Summilux. The other was a Series VII for 
my even more ancient 85/2 Nikkor P.

So, with my two Leica freebies, I now have four magenta-proofed 
lenses for my M8.

The filters come in at about E55 each, which is considerably cheaper 
than the Leica equivalent where they're available, and certainly a 
lot cheaper than an M9.

Foto Huppert's website is:

and their email address:

  "Foto Huppert" <info at foto-huppert.de>

They accept Paypal and are excellent communicators in English as well 
as German.

No connection except as a very satisfied customer.

Best of light.
