Konica Minolta Filters?

[posez]

Hi, just a general shout out - has anyone ever used filters from Konica Minolta? Are they any good? Thinking about the CPL in particular.

KM filter? :think: Sounds interesting. Get from where? How much is it?

Just bought a fascinating antique Minolta CPL from a nice gentleman. 72mm thread, but the filter size is 77mm - works almost like a permanent step-up ring. To prevent any vignetting from happening at all. Turning on the CPL is nice and tight, unlike the Hoya equivalent. Glass seems excellent. Only problem is that I have no lens cap to fit it.

Lens caps are easy to find in any shop. Heh.

I actually prefer the CPL to turn easily, so I can quickly run it through 360deg to see at which angle gives the greatest effect. Maybe its just me :dunno:
