Re: BTR Filters & Medium Format

[Don Roberts <droberts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jim, I have mounted #25 polyester filters on the front of Bronica ETRSi
magazines with very good results.  I just tape them over the front of
the opening with red litho tape (Scotch tape would work fine) and make
plastic covers for the magazine fronts to protect them.  This puts the
filter a little further from the film plane which I like better.  I use
BTR on 35mm because I have no choice with the Nikon FA I use HIE in.  I
tried mounting it behind the mirror and ruined a shutter so would not
try that again.
