77mm filter trade
I bought a 77mm Tiffen UV Haze 1 filter for one of my Pentax 67 lenses, and
it's the low-profile type (wide angle) and there's no threads on the front, so it won't accept a lens cap. I have no idea why anyone would want such a filter, but there must be some reason, so if anyone here wants to make a direct trade for a conventional UV1, or Skylight 1A, let me know! Thanks! Ray |

I recently had a perfect day to photograph those large beautiful clouds immediatly after those terrible storms (tornados!) here in KY and jumped upon the opportunity. It was rather breezy (to say the least!!) so Large Format was out and my Hasselblad was in. Using my 50mm Distagon and directly screwing in my 67mm NON-THIN B&W orange filter (for Black and White) and my NON-THIN B&W Circular polarizer on top. Absolutely stunning images though my composition could always have been better after the fact. A perfect choice of filter combination BUT since I prefer to print full frame (when aesthically permissable!) I have these dark areas in each corner. I think its called vignetting ! Seriously though, if I had the THIN versions of these filters maybe it would not have happened. I would keep that thin UV filter as I can see no reason to not just use a slip on lens cap. Not threaded in the front!!!---Why would it need to be threaded--I've never heard of stacking another filter on a UV filter!! Think about it!!!!! ------Thin UV filter=slip on lens cap!! HEY!!!
