Hola,
I have this filter but nothing to mount it with. I have a Lindahl shade that the filter will slip in, but the shade slot is square - no way to adjust the full height of the filter, it's either flush with the top or flush with the bottom - no good.

I also have a Heliopan 77mm round filter holder that appears to have been designed for this purpose but the slot is not thick enough! My glass filter is a full 4mm thick.

Further, I can't find a proper mount. Does anyone here have this filter? Does anyone know which holder is appropriate and where I can find it? It's a nice filter and I'd just like to be able to use the thing if needed at some point.

Thanks in advance
Forky

Problem solved with a file! I was a little hesitant to take a file to this holder, but after I saw B&H wanted $85 for their holder it was easy to start filing away. Now it fits :)
