Question on 450mm Fujinon-C
I just acquired one of these and discovered an interesting
difference between the one in my hand and the ones I've read about on the web. The serial number is 6402xx, which puts it in the same range as those shown on Kerry's web pages. But this particular lens takes a *49mm* filter! It has the "outer lettering" and is multicoated, and is mounted in what seems to be the original Copal-C (newer style but chrome ring with coarse blocky teeth) number 1 shutter. Has anyone ever seen one of these to take a 49mm filter? Steve |

Question on 450mm Fujinon-C
49mm? On a 450 Fuji-C? This is indeed an oddity. It's not a step down
ring installed, is it? Email Kerry with a photo of the lens. I'm sure he'll be very interested in seeing it. Though for the life of me, I can't understand how they got 49mm when the elements seem to fill the barrel in the 52mm version... - Chris Stephan Goldstein wrote: I just acquired one of these and discovered an interesting difference between the one in my hand and the ones I've read about on the web.

Question on 450mm Fujinon-C
A few years back I purchased a used Fujinon 300mm C at it too was set
for 499mm filters while the newer one is designed for 52mm. George |
