Schneider recommends their center filter IVb.

Are you using this lens on a 4x5 camera? If so, you might want to try your lens for a while before deciding whether you need a center filter. Difference photographers have different needs/opinions.

Hey miles, CVongratulations on the great bunny. You c ngo with the schneiderthat is made forthe lens or you can try the Heliopan which will cost much less. How did the airplane shoot go?

If you are shooting B&W save your money. By the way, just what did you have to do for the bunny to be so kind ?????

Thanks guys!

I am using the toyo 45 AII and the omega view 45f at present, black and white and color and all shades in between. i think i'll try some shots and take some notes for awhile before jumping into the center filter pool. Actually, after this, there might not be any more glass for a long time as the daughter just got accepted into an advanced college prep high school and they just want me to leave my checkbook with them... thanks for the help guys! m.
