[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I don't know about the Leica filters, but my Heliopan and B&W filters (I had an extensive selection of various shades of red and also IR filters when I shot film, and still have some for my Bronica outfit) are both very durable and of high optical quality. I have a slight preference for Heliopan because they are slimmer.
