Hi all,

does anybody sell, or is anyone capable of making, a filter thread step-up ring with 27mm at the lens end and 29.5mm at the filter end?

Regards,

Amy

Troll around on eBay, you might find something.

Well, I've been doing that for the past weeks. No such luck, that's why I'm asking.

Regards,

Amy

S.K. Grimes would be able to manufacture one for you. Maybe you could contact a table top machining group in your area.

Amy, I know how you feel. I did see a 27-35mm step ring tonight. Might I ask what camera the 27mm is for? There are 27mm filters out there, unless you are looking to save money and use your Retina filters on a Contina. Ever think of maybe getting a Series adapter?
