Thanks, I've ordered the spacer in the link. I'm surprised most filters will fit inside the hood given the tiny amount of space. I just received the FA 31 today, completing my set of The There Amigos, and was wondering how to use filters on it so this was very helpful.

Glad to help. Shoot some tests for vignetting once you have the filter and spacer. Cokin had some really, really thin filters, PURE Harmonie, but they were discontinued.

Hahaha not at all. I think the shorter tube I got is the appropriate one for FF. And it should take at least a slim filter, or a step up ring for larger filters.
