I was pleased to find that the Zenit 20mm allows you to screw little filters to the REAR of the lens, and was wondering if the Heliar afforded the same convenience?" Hi Dan I have the 12/5.6 Heliar and it unfortunately doesn't have this rear filter facility built in, but I have just made a filter ring to use 87 and 25 filters over the rear element of this lens, mainly for infra-red use. They seem to work fine. I can maybe post an image or two if anyone is interested in a "first test". Mike Nicholls Canberra Australia mikenic@cyberone.com.au
