Re: Noblex 135 question

["M. Denis Hill" <denis@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, but I'm still confused. If I remember correctly, the larger Noblexes
have a retaining ring into which the magnetic mount filters slip. My 135
lacks this retainer.

So ... is the area around the lens designed for the same filters, sans
guidance from the retainer? In other words, do they just "snap" into place
under magnet power without any additional restraint? I can understand if this
is so, since the drum slit is smaller and the lens is minuscule.

If the answer is "yes," is there any word back from Noblex on ND grad
filters?
