I obtained the appropriate rangefinder filter for the IIIc before the=20
collectors drove up the price and find that it does indeed help.

As for self fabrication, I can offer up the approach of a local IIIf=20
owner: use a piece of blank exposed processed C41 color print film=20
cut to size.<<<<<<<

Roy,
Nice idea. I have lost my filter (IIf) a few year ago and focusing was =
sometimes difficult. Thanks - it's cheaper than a 10$ caps.=20
