>You might try a 'step-up ring' from 72 to 77 mm. Look to B&H ads, or phone
Calumet Photographic for help. A 77mm filter is a little pricey, but the
combination of ring and filter will permit screw-in. Look in Shutterbug mag
for a listing of used 77mm filters usually at a very good price. Usually,
filters do not suffer over time with use, but is is a wise idea to get a
major mfg product, eg., Tiffen, Hoya, B&W. Good Luck, James
