Alf >> Alf - by yellow glass do you meant the Summicrons below s/n 1,000,000 that were made with radioactive Thorium and most have turned warm colored? Lately there has been much ado about them in the British LHS Newsletter by Dr.Cyril Blood and the LHSA Viewfinder by Bill Gordon. I have one of the lenses that was written about and find that shooting neg color, the warmth is filtered out but will show up on chromes. These lenses are rare & carry a premium. ***************Marvin Moss********************
