Filters for TLR?

[Scandiacus]

I've been wanting to get a red filter for my TLR and it seems that the Bay 1 (B30?) filters are quite rare.

Any TLR users out there using any filters? Would like to find out where did you guys got your filter

Check ebay. if not i think some of the classic camera shops at adelphi might have.

Checked at Ron's and he doesn't have any...buying it online will be my last resort.

Try find a bay 1 to a treaded adaptor? Then you can use regular treaded filters.

Yeah I think most likely I'll buy a B30 to 52mm adapter...hard to find these old stuff in Singapore

Have you tried at Seng Cheong on Middle road? I got an yellow filter for my 124G there. I was looking specifically for Bay-1 (B-30) since I have a lens hood and needed the filter to fit with the hood on.

Here is the contact for Seng Cheong:
Seng Cheong Co (Pte) Ltd
Middle Road #04-01/021 I C B Enterprise Hse Singapore 188972

Quite tough getting such filters. Good luck and let me know if you find one. I am also on the hunt for an orange filter (Bay-1 only).

Cheers!
