As Robert Doisneau often called himself, I too am (and please no one blast my French spelling) a "chasseur d'images." Having such a long shade stick on the end of the lens might cal a little more attention to it. But then, it's not like the thing is huge to begin with, so "double" couldn't be too terrible, I suppose... I'm also gathering from your earlier post that there actually must be something wonked on the outer, female threads of my retaining ring (they've always been like that since I've had it). A standard E39 filter as I use on both the collapsible and mid-model rigid Summicrons simply won't go on right. I wind up just screwing it in like half a turn, till I feel it get tight, then stop. So far, this hasn't caused any real trouble, but it feels tacky. Anyhow, thanks for all the help! Scott
