Thank you very much for your comment Allen. When I was
looking for a Rolleicord IV I was thinking to buy a H1
filter but after to see Emmanuel Bigler photos taken
with the T and Velvia 50 and to read some months ago
the commentary that you wrote about your experience
with the Xenar I decided that the H1 was not
necessary.
Only as anecdote; I quote a site where you can read an
official Rollei 1961 catalog with the H1 specs (it's
necessary to slide the horizontal bar to the right):
