I'd use the B&W & try to get them at a camera show. The Leica dealer here in
Dallas wanted to sell me two filters, a red & yellow, for $41.00 apiece. I
found them two weeks ago at a camera show, new, for $28.00 apiece.

Hi all,

Thanks for all your replies to my M6 loading question.
I'll do some practicing tonite.

I need to buy some filters for black and white work.
I've previously been using Hoya filters on my 1970s
vintage Nikkor optics.  However, I've noticed that
used Leica filters are available for about double the 
price of a new B+W/Hoya filter.  Should I pay the
extra $$$ for Lecia?

Oh, by the way, I do not put a UV filter on my lenses.
