Re: Newbie



Thank you all for your comments.

To Helmut:

It is a EOS. Are you saying that my "modern" 50mm lens system is useless
for UV? If so, then I'd go through with trying to remove the coatings
before buying a new or rather an old lens system.
 

bhphoto.com have an assortment of B&W Black Glass Lenses, some really
cheap (~35$ for a 52mm). It says that 

"Although this dark violet filter transmits a small amount of visible
light, it completely blocks wavelengths longer than 360nm."

which is conflicting information, as I see it, since the upper limit for
our vision is usually given as 400nm.

I'd like to know if anyone has experience with the B&W filter.

Thank you again
Regards
Andreas
