Sorry about that - thoughtless of me. You can get it in parts by following the menus and links from www.schneideroptics.com. >> Or Heliopan http://www.heliopan.de/picts/Preisliste.pdf (p16, > > tele-blenden) >> Available in the UK from Teamwork in London: >> http://lw15fd.law15.hotmail.msn.com/cgi-bin/HoTMaiL?curmbox=F000000001&a >> =25bf5528b7c2fbeeea6184c46873fad1 > This URL works better: http://www.teamworkphoto.com/heliopan.html > I'll look at those. the B+W and Heliopan filters come in 3 lengths: wide, normal and tele. The tele might be ok for a 50mm lens on a *ist-D. If not you can stack Heliopan filters, so perhaps try a combination of wides and normals until you get the length you need. It should be possible to calculate with some precision the maximum length of a lenshood for a particular lens and sensor size. I'm sure somebody has the formula somewhere. Otherwise it's trial & error. -- Cheers, Bob mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
