Hi, All,
Anybody knows the lens filter for Angenieux 45-90/2.8 lens? I could find one source said it uses Serie VIII filter. But it's a drop-in filter. The lens has a screw-in hood, ABOUT in 64mm diameter, it's not a common size for screw-in filter.

Thanks calvin83. I purchased a Leica Serie VIII filter, but doesn't include the retaining ring. Hope it doesn't need the ring. _________________ Nikon D600, Fujifilm X-E1, Sony A7R,

If my memory is correct, the hood comes with the lens also acts as a retaining ring. _________________ https://lensfever.com/

Great! I will post here to let people know about the filter for the lens and whether it needs a ring when I receive the filter. Thanks! _________________ Nikon D600, Fujifilm X-E1, Sony A7R,

Pretty good result I would say from an old fast zoom designed in the last 1960s. The bokeh looks quiet creamy too. I should dig up my Angenieux primes when I upgrade my camera. _________________ https://lensfever.com/

colvin83 is right. The serie VIII filter perfectly fits onto the Angenieux 45-90/2.8 lens front filter thread, and the hood also acts as a retaining ring. So no retaining ring needed.

It has been mentioned here before, but the later Angenieux 35-70 is also quite good, although my copy is not entirely parfocal.
Mine has a Leica R mount, but as far as i have found out, not with the explicit blessing of Wetzlar and in their catalogue like the earlier one. On the other hand, that is rather strange, since lens mounts were usually fiercely guarded by their originators. I thought that the time limit for legal imitation of the R-mount did not expire that early.

"Made in France for Leitz Leicaflex" was engraved onto the older 45-90mm. This lens was exclusively made for Leica.
Leitz did buy some lenses from suplliers: 16mm Fisheye & longer Zooms (& Leica CL!) from Minolta, 21mm Superangulons & 35 PC Curtagon by Schneider, and as far I know not only 15mm Hologon but also 15mm Elmarit R from Zeiss/Contax.
In R4 aera cooperation with Minolta got more closely and wide zooms were also made by Minolta, one serious reason is price for sure.
Angenieux 2x35 & 3x70 (their official names) were made in several mounts like Nikon, Leica R and others.
Shell was made by carbonmaterial, not metal. High-tech in it's time, but felt a bit cheapyer than metal.
I don't know the deadline for legal imitation of the R-mount, but mention there were other aka Tamron & others too using this mount too. _________________ T*homas

Tamron and others were made with R bayonet, yes, but the Angenieux 35-70 dates from 1983, that is "R4s-time" when Leitz cooperated with Minolta.
I assume that the mount was licenced to Angenieux since the Leitz co had severe economic difficulties at the time.
