[pure-silver] Re: filters for view cameras



Bob,

I have heard that same story also but I have never seen any evidence of it causing any problem. I suspect that lenses today with at least Single coating may account for us not seeingt the problem

is clean and lying flat against the rear lens ring.  I have had very faint

introduce some aberrations which you don't see with the filter in front of
the lens.
