Dagor Type G Claron 210mm f9 Filter Size ?

[Michael Kadillak]

I acquired an older Dagor type 210mm f9 G Claron lens that came with out caps and I wanted to see if anyone knew what the front screw in filter size is and what size cap would fit on the rear?

Thanks in advance.

According to my notes - 40.5mm filter, 37.5mm rear cap.

Many thanks Greg. Will order them accordingly. Very much appreciate your assistance.

Schneider's literature differs with Greg on the rear cap. I have PDFs of 1967 and 1976 Schneider datasheets (downloaded years ago from Schneider's web site when they still had all the historical stuff there) and both list the rear cap as 37.5mm. Admittedly half a millimeter isn't much, but 37mm is not what the manufacturer said.

You didn't ask, but the front cap is 42mm.

Ordered a step up ring for the front and a cap for the rear. Will post the results when they arrive. Thanks Guys!

You were spot on Greg. Got the caps for the lens as you directed and Bonzai - a perfect fit. Much appreciated my friend!
