    Problem with different threads for filters, please help

    Hi folks!

    After discussing this in another thread, I have decided to use 105mm Polarizer and other filters in front of my 75mm SA with the centerfilter. I ordered a Heliopan step up ring from 86x1 to 105x1 to use all the other filters in 105mm size and prevent vignetting.

    I also wanted to use the Cokin X-Pro System because it has an 105mm adaptor-ring, but this is 105x0,75. Why the.... is it 0,75??? I donīt think this will fit neither the heliopan Step up ring nor any Heliopan or BW 105mm grey- or yellowfilter.

    Any help??? Any suggestions? What can I do?

    If you believe you can, or you believe you can't... you're right.

    Sorry. I'm afraid I know nothing about Cokin or dealers that ship to Europe.

    B&H Photo in New York might ship to Europe. Here's a link to their page for the CX405B adapter:
