Gerd,
Loved this!
I'd managed to open the lens up just last week to clean out some swarf, I
should have counted those elements while I was 'in there' to make sure none
had gone AWOL.
I certainly can't degrade the image quality with a filter as they're such a
weird fit I can't find one, 49mm x 1mm, NB not .75mm.
