Hello!
I'm looking for a way to attach red, yellow or orange filters to the Summicron-C
It has a 39mm screw mount but regular 39mm filters don't fit as it has a slightly different thread pitch. And I find any colored original filters. Are there any adapters available etc.?

Thx

I think it's actually a Series 5.5 thread - but you should check that. The British firm SRB-Griturn - www.srb-griturn.com/ - say they can make any adapter you want, so that may be te way to go. You might even go for a more common filter size . . .

yeah, i think you need a 5.5 to 39mm adapter...eg:
