Hello again: I can't seem to find a source for b & w filters for my ANNY. Even tried E- ***, nothing there. The inside diameter fo my lens/threads is 22mm, outside is 25mm. Any suggestions? Thanks, Jeff

You did not say what lens you have, it may not be designed for screw in filters-front threads may just be for the lens element retainer.
SO, according to this old post get a Series V slip on adapter for 25mm (1 inch) and look for series V filters. Some of the retailers listed on the home page under the commercial link may have the adapters also. They show up occasionaly.

Sorry bout that! The lens is a Wollensak 135mm F4.7 Raptor. It has threads on the inside (23mm) part. Jeff

I never saw a screw-in adapter ring for the 135mm. "Raptar," but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Kodak made a very good Series 5 adapter ring, with a setscrew, for lens barrels of that diameter. I prefer it to the push-on type, and you might want to keep an eye out for one.

Hi Jeff,

when I got my first Speed Graphic and started to learn about Series Filters, I had a heck of a time finding an adapter. I ended up calling Harrison and Harrison in Porterville, California. Will Harrison set me up and was very helpful to me, even though the sale was very small and I was clueless. They don't have a website and I don't have the phone number, but Portervile is near Bakersfield. Use the area code for Bakersfield, CA.
