Pentax 67 bayonet mount filters question
Thanks,
James
As a general comment, if you can't get a particular filter in the Pentax range then B&W have an extensive selection. As regards adapters, SRB Services, who advertise regularly in AP, can provide or make just about anything that you can imagine!
I bought a secondhand bayonet skylight for my 105mm some time ago - it's fine, as you'd expect a genuine Pentax filter to be - but apart from speed, it offers no advantage. And it can't be used with a second filter, or a lens hood other than the Pentax bayonet one.
On balance, I'd suggest sticking to Hoya...

I am a newcomer to the Pentax 67II and am baffled at the bayonet filter mount on lenses such as the 82mm. Presumably Pentax make filters for lenses such as this? Ideally of course I would like to get one big polariser (i.e. 95mm) and use step-down rings to use it with my various lenses. However, for a lens that only takes bayonet filters such as the 45mm I am not sure such rings/adaptors exist. Likewise if I wanted to use Lee filters on this lens I would presumably run into the same problem?
I certainly can't be the first person to have these doubts and there must be a way around this; unfortunately I can't find it!
Many thanks,
James
