    Heliopan Filters

    Who is a good mail order source for Heliopan filters. Someone who actually stocks some inventory?
    Thanks,

    If B&H doesn't have what you're looking for, try www.photofilter.com.

    Kirk - I've bought a few Heliopan filters from B&H over the years, albeit only in oddball small sizes for M-Leica lenses. At the moment, a search for "Heliopan" on their site returns 756 listings, and 129 if you limit the search to "in stock". I'd be surprised if anyone else does even that well.

    Possibly Midwest Photo Exchange. I ordered some rather large ones, but some were in stock in sizes I didn't expect them to be. Give Jim a call first.

    Kirk:

    I have bought a number of Heliopan filters from Team-Foto in Germany over the last few years & their prices are great.

    See:

    Re: Heliopan Filters

    I tried all of the above. Only Team Foto in Germany has a decent inventory. Why are inventories of these filters so bad in the US? I am just looking for a 77mm no.15 and a 22. I can find B&W's in a minute. But I have had many issues with B&W filters and don't want to buy anymore of them, but it is really hard to find the Heliopans.

    I gave up and just bought B&W again. I was in a hurry for a trip. Hopefully they fixed the issues I had before.
