Hello everybody, a photographer from Switzerland here
I am insanely excited to start with large format photography!
I have already used the search function, but do not get anywhere.
I own the lens "Schneider Kreuznach Symmar-S 135 mm f/5.6". (Serial number: 12 190 592)
On the cap of the lens it says "SN 223/24 - 51ø".
Therefore, I assumed that adapter rings for this lens must have a diameter of 51 mm.
But both adapter rings with 51 mm ø and 52 mm ø - from different manufacturers - did not attach to the lens.
Therefore, I now assume that it should go with 50 mm ø.
My question is now: Does such an adapter ring exist at all or am I doing something wrong? I can't find one anywhere
My intention: to increase the ring of my lens to 58 mm so that I can attach a filter holder (for example the Firecrest 85mm Holder Kit by Formatt Hittech). From 58 mm ø I then have enough adapter rings to be able to react flexibly.
I hope you can help me and remain until then with kind regards
