FOUND: 82mm damaged filter

herion · July 13, 2006

Looking to get a cracked, chipped, scratched 82mm filter. I need to remove the glass and use it as a spacer ring - I just got a Leica 19mm (version 1) and even thin filters are touching the front element.

PM or email me.

THanks!

Not that I have an 82mm filter but....are you concerned about it vignetting?

I *think* I should be okay, but that's why I don't want to buy a new filter and see if I have a problem. I can always return the thin filter I bought if that's the case.

Just got one today -- no vignetting at all! I *do* have to figure out to adjust the exposure compensation with manual focus lenses though. Here's an example with a CP on the lens:

The highlights are blown, so I probably need to go -2/3

so does this mean you're not looking for anything anymore?
