Picked up a adapter ring with the following markings and wonder if anyone could tell me what the thread size's are on this ring. The only markings on the ring are: EdnaLne USA 616 |

Get out the calipers because that looks like an address or name to me, but perhaps the 616 is the key to the problem. Are markings stamped,engraved or what? |

Ednalite 616 is the Tiffen equivalent of the Tiffen 625. New numbering system thru Tiffen makes the 625 now 34 F-6 so I'll say 34mm. Hope this helps. (I have stock charts for Ednalite, Tiffen, New Tiffen #'s, and Kodak Series.) |

Thanks Curt; If one end is 34mm can you tell me what the larger thread size on this adapter is, using my calipers I get a size of 1.730 inchs ( 43.9420 mm) but that doesn't include the depth of the threads, would that make it 43 mm or 46 mm? Thanks |

Hi Bob, First the 34mm end is external threads is it not? If the 43.9420mm end is internally threaded, I believe you have the rear half of a series 6 adapter minus the front filter retaining ring. I can't be really precise as I'm using a steel ruler rather than calipers and my poor old eyes aren't what they used to be. I'd just say 44mm internal thread. |

Hi Curt: Right the 34mm is external threads and the 43.9420 is the internal threads. That sound about right to me, will be ordering a 44 to 55mm stepping Ring from B&H which is the only one I see they list in there source book. To bad its not 43, 43.5 or 46 mm as there are a bunch of rings with that thread. |
