Iskra-philes went to sleep.

Looks a little 'rough'!.....just turned a 33mm adaptor for my 'new' Iskra, - to take
my 32mm push-on shade & filters, - if anyone has similar items, but no adaptor, I may be able to help.

Interesting, but I've never used B&W film in my Iskras. I have a yellow filter which seems to screw on but I don't trust the threading. It is small enough to allow closing the cover when it is installed. Does your adapter screw on or is it a bayonet mount? Regards.

[Dave Wilkinson]

The adaptor that I have just turned for my Iskra has a 33mm 'male' thread, and short protruding 32mm ring, to take the push-on's, BTW-I'm a toolmaker by trade

Can you close the cover with the adapter installed? Regards.

....... is that 32 mm a Series filter size?

I've solved my hooding and filtering problems with my Iskra very cheaply with snap-on lens hood and filters for Meopta Opema II camera. Equipment for that old Czech camera appears from time to time on eBay. I've bought that hood for 4$ and filter for 10$. All that staff is little wider (36mm instead of 35,5), but you can simply tighten a bit filter or hood to fit.

....... is that 32 mm a Series filter size?......I'm not sure! - and yes, I can
close the front, - lens on infinity of course!...but don't, because when the back is off, the rear of the lens assy. looks to be a little too close to the film plane, due to
a little extra compression of the bellows!:cool:
