Fastening the filter to the film gate is quite viable, but I put it
between the film rails between the gate and the film. If it ever
comes adrift, it would then possibly scratch some of the film, but I
find that more palatable than buggering up the shutter if it's
opposite the film, between the shutter and the gate.
