   Regarding filters for the 50mm/f3.5 Elmar, I know of three choices:

   1. Walz 18 or 19 mm (not sure exactly)screw-in filters for Argus C-3

   2. Leitz clamp-on A36 filters

   3. Leitz New York clamp-on A36 adapter for Leitz E39 screw-in filters

   The Walz filters in the original case make a compact package that fits in 
a pocket, and allows changing aperture settings without removing the filter. 
 With clamp-ons the filter must be removed to do it.  The clamp-on lens hood 
can be used with any of the above.

   Happy Hunting!
